New South Kitchen & Bar

The host greeted us warmly, creating a friendly and inviting atmosphere. The overall vibe was a mix of a classic diner setting with a nighttime feel. It took about five minutes for our waitress to come to our table, though.The chairs at our table could use some attention; they were quite loose, and the padding was worn down.As for the food, it was fine--not exceptional, but not bad. The fried green tomatoes were a bit too soft, possibly overcooked. My wife had the pot roast with mashed potatoes, which she enjoyed. I tasted it too--it had good flavor and a generous portion size. I opted for the fried chicken with mac and cheese. The chicken consisted of two boneless breasts and was tasty. The mac and cheese was just okay; it could benefit from a unique twist to enhance the flavor.Cocktail prices seemed high for the venue, so we went with a rum mixed drink and a beer, both of which were reasonably priced and enjoyable.Overall, we'd return, though it wasn't an immediate favorite.

Food and service was very good and the prices are reasonable. The restaurant is also pleasing to the eye.

You can be envious of my eggplant truffle fries. Or if you like salty and sweet-my melt in your mouth heirloom tomato salad with local feta, bacon, and arugula. Or you can quell your envy and get yourself your own while summer is still here! Being farm to table if you wait too long and miss it, well then you can post what you got and we can be the ones drooling. Lighting and sound were perfect, my booth seat was comfy, and staff was wonderful. New South has been around for over a decade for a good reason, they are reliably great.

There's no better place in Charlotte to get fish. The owners are spot on quality and prepared perfectly. Their restaurant is one of the hidden gems of south Charlotte.I highly recommend this place to everyone

We visited new South kitchen and bar for the first time on Mother's Day after reading several reviews on my yelp feed. I thought this would be a good opportunity for us to try the restaurant out, especially on such a special occasion.That being said, we found the restaurant very enjoyable. We have reservations for 2 PM and when we arrived, our table wasn't ready yet so we sat at the bar which was mostly empty. We waited we ordered a couple of drinks, a martini and a vodka tonic. The French martini was one of the menu specials and my significant other found it very good.Once we were seated at our table, we started our order. As we were a bit late for brunch, we decided to get a mix of brunch and lunch so ordered the chicken fried steak and scrambled eggs with cheese grits and she had the fried chicken with a side of collard greens. The chicken fried steak platter was pretty good. The steak was fried perfectly with a really fluffy and crispy crust. I could've used a bit more gravy, and they also included a small salad with pickled onions that was layered on top of the fried chicken steak patty. I would've preferred the salad on the side but just be picky. There was also on the bottom of the platter chicken fried steak. I wasn't really sure if it was some sort of orange juice or complementary sauce but either way, it wasn't needed. fried chicken was really good as well. Fried perfectly. We did request hot sauce when it arrived at the table, but unfortunately the hot sauce didn't make it back to the table before we were finished. Outside of a couple of times the server forgot to bring a couple of requested items back to the table, service was overall strong. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant and advise that you get reservations on busy days and holidays.

I planned dinner with my mom, aunt, grandmother, which is a tough group to please. Everyone, even my vegetarian aunt, enjoyed their meal. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I look forward to coming back and seeing what's new on the menu! They even had a decent selection of local craft beer.

Well here is another update on New South - once again really good last night - Had a party of four. It really is Farm and Sea to Table ! Great dinner with Shrimp and Grits, Fried Chicken, Chicken and Waffles ! Lots of Appetizers - Goat Cheese tart and Fried Tomatoes ! Great drinks and incredible Hot Apple Pie and Chocolate Mousse and a Grasshopper for dessert ! I will post pictures !

The atmosphere here was really comfortable and the menu had lots of creative choices. I had the savory cheese and chive waffle with chicken. The gravy wasn't to my liking but the jalapeño pepper jelly was outstanding. Also, you've got to try the baked pimento cheese with crispy wontons!

I love this place. Great food, reasonable prices and nice ambiance. Service is great too. I love their crab cakes. A Bacardi and Diet Coke is only $6. Can't beat it

The service was incredible the people who work here are very kind and take pride in their food as well as this restaurant. The food is delicious and not too highly priced for what you get. Very yummy and such a great staff. Highly recommend
