    We sat at the bar. The food and service were both excellent. Brenner Pass is noisy/loud which for me detracted from the otherwise excellent experience

    This was my first time dining at Southern Kitchen. I was pleased with the service, ambiance, and the food. I felt like it was a bit overpriced, but it wasn't anything we couldn't handle. For example, a shot of Hennessey was $30...we got 2. I was surprised to see the owner out and about and making thing happen. She smiled at us and thanked us for dining at the restaurant. I will definitely dine again.

    We went for our 24th wedding anniversary and it was great. Brianna was an excellent server and did everything she could to help make the day special for us. Food was extremely delicious and not too expensive as you would see in similar restaurants. Overall, would definitely go back again!

    Christmas Eve and the place was packed but running efficiently. The owner was visibly on-site, taking pictures of patrons in front of their beautiful Christmas tree, a very nice touch. My only complaint was that it was a prix fixe menu, which I did not know about when I made the reservation. I also saw nothing on their website to indicate such. The food was excellent and well priced at $95 pp, so we stayed, but would have liked to have known that the full menu was not available before we went.
