Located in the heart of Downtown Pompano Beach, South Bar & Kitchen is a contemporary Southern American concept with a heavy Louisiana influence, infusing Cajun and Creole flavors in a tantalizing way. Bringing people together is at the heart of everything South has to offer, from the community patio with a centerpiece tree adorned with sparkling lights to the meat smoker that not only warms our food but introduces a nostalgic feeling.

    Most of the food was good. We had the Ultimate Brunch which allowed us to choose a variety of things from the menu. Some we liked, some we did not. The only negative is that the hot food came out lukewarm, probably because it is being prepared en masse and waiting for people to order. They should work on timing for that. Overall, a pleasant enough experience.

    Delicious and well-priced food & drinks. Very friendly, welcoming staff. Our server was most pleasant but slow to take order (perhaps because he was still learning the hand-held order system) and not terribly attentive but overall still a very good experience!

    Was a little disappointed that they advertised, via social media, Mark Zaden would be performing, the reason I chose to go, and they had someone else playing. When asked why I was told he’s at their sister restaurant, YOT. Not cool. Atmosphere was an A+, food a B but good

    Thank you for the review, Paul! We are sorry about the mixup with Mark. We hope to see you soon.

    Long wait for food; did not receive utensils until after the appetizers came out. The worst was the fresh fish from f the day was server nearly raw. Very undercooked but the waitress was very nice and offered to bring something else which took 40 more minutes to deliver. I just hoped for faster service after the waitress and manager came to apologize about the first dish.
