“This place is absolutely fabulous. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. Every single dish my family got was incredible. I recommend anything and everything. The sweet potato cheesecake just about killed me with yumminess. And I had the best espresso martini I ever had in my life. I can’t wait to go back!”
“One of the best restaurants I’ve been to in Philly. Food, Service and Atmosphere were all top notch. I also had elderly parents with me and they were very accommodating to our needs. Looking forward to coming back soon! Reservation strongly recommended.”
“Went went to South Restaurant and Jazz Club for my daughter's birthday. I made a reservation online which was easy, while making the reservation I was able to indicate the occasion we were celebrating. Their site provides information about parking and the information was accurate. The website also informed of dress code for an upscale, sophisticated look to embrace the ambiance. We experienced excellent customer service from the check-in to the server. Our server was very attentive making sure to check in and that we had everything we needed. We had the cornbread skillet, mac and cheese, buttermilk fried chicken and mango salmon dishes. The food was delicious and the portions were great! The music was excellent! We will definitely come back!”
“The ambiance of South is very nice, and everything is delicious here. Definitely make reservations, they have a jazz club right next door to the restaurant but you can also hear the music inside the restaurant which is nice and its not super noisy. The turkey wings, chicken, fish and shrimp and cornbread are great. Our waitress was really nice and explained everything on the menu for us. Parking you have to try to get on the side streets but read the signs up. Also there is a lot not far from the restaurant. Defintely will be returning. #food #dinner #music”

If you’re even thinking about coming here, stop thinking and just go. I’ll definitely be back. A true gem! 🔥🍽️”
