Editorial Review for South – by Neha M. Shah
In Short
Suede panels in earthy muted colors add a casual feel to this elegant restaurant. The menu features classic comfort foods heightened to new levels. Gourmet beginnings include crab cakes with sweet corn relish and crab bisque with crispy crab fritters. Hearty main plates of buttermilk fried chicken and frogmore stew go well with Southern accompaniments like collards and mac and cheese. Finish with a Peanut Butter and Banana Montecristo for a sweet yet not-so-simple ending.

My sister and I made dinner reservations for her birthday, but arrived early so we could have a margarita at the bar first. Nice atmosphere and good margaritas. Our table was waiting for us, the server was busy, but very good and made some recommendations at our request. We shared the fried pimento cheese appetizer - which was different and very good. It was like an upscale cheetos! My sister is a vegetarian and there were enough entrees on the menu for her to make a satisfying selection (fish) and I choose the beef special. Both entrees were presented attractively, had depth and flavor and there was plenty. The next time I go to South again I will probably order the fried chicken as it is a customer favorite at the restaurant (our waiter told us). It will be a while before I go back as the dinner was expensive, but well worth it.
Pros: food

Recently a buddy of mine and I had dinner at South. We were in North Hills and stumbled upon this resaurant. Wow! what a find. The staff was great, especially the bartender I think her name was Grace. She was very informative and could really make a good martini. For dinner I had the special that evening which was rockfish in a red pepper broth with white beans and celery hearts. A flavorful dish and nicely presented. Grace told me that the menu is about to change and that this dish will be on the menu, a good choice I think. My friend had hte blackened tuna over succotash. He said it was the best tuna dish he had ever had. Both of us dine out quite a bit and can't believe we have not been here yet or for that matter even heard of South. I can assure you we will return. Nice job
