The food, service, and ambience was fantastic!! Everything we ordered was seasoned well (not salty. But seasoned). And the team (from the hostess to the busboys) were fantastic. I will be back!

The location was convenient with ample street, valet & garage parking. Compliments to Chef! My jerk lamb-chops, Mac &Cheese, Collard’s, & Lemon Drop Martini were delicious. My friend enjoyed the fried chicken & cheese Grits. The venue is perfect for photos with red roses on the walls throughout on black backdrop. Fun & party atmosphere! Highly recommend for food, drinks, & celebrations!

South Branch is always a wonderful experience! We often choose it for special occasions and office lunches. This place has that perfect combination of great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and attentive service. Not to mention the location! Everything felt effortless, from the moment we arrived - we had a reservation for six, and table was ready for us, to the moment we left. It's the kind of place that makes every outing feel a little special! Highly recommend! Kate --- Focus Construction.

    This is my second time there. I was there for my birthday brunch and our waitress Keonna (Apologies if i misspelled it) sje was very attentive and patient. Actually all the staff are really good. I ordered the same dish, catfish gumbo and grits..soooo good. Their drinks were ok n point as they were the last time. I really enjoyed and will be back soon.
