We had the best experience for my husbands 40th birthday dinner. Our server Reese was beyond amazing and made our evening special. The food was delicious and so were the drinks. We are from Los Angeles, but we would come back to Memphis just to eat here again.

We had a great experience. We celebrated a birthday and an anniversary. The staff made it a special evening. Everything from champagne toasts to a birthday surprise . Everyone that spoke to us was aware of the special occasions we were celebrating and offered special wishes and congratulations. Our waiter was fantastic! Thanks for making our night so special .

About the restaurant

Aptly named for its locale, Southern Social nestles up to the old Southern Railway’s historic Germantown Depot and sits adjacent to Southern Avenue.

Owners of downtown Memphis’ Flight Restaurant and Wine Bar have opened Southern Social. The top tier fine dining restaurant will reflect the high standards established at Flight.

The restaurant features a chef-inspired menu, offering fresh seafood and prime steaks. Southern Social brings exceptional specialty cocktails and Flight’s award-winning wine selections.

Of the four people's dishes at our table, the lobster pizza won the prize. The chianti vinaigrette dressing on every salad is bitter. Their special of flounder over parmesan grits was underwhelming. Wine list is good. This is NOT Big John Grisantis on Airways from the 1980s.

Perfect dining experience. The food is exceptional. The service is impeccable from the moment you enter the restaurant until the valet delivers your vehicle. I love the way the servers know the dishes being offered and explain them to you with certainty.
