Southerleigh Haute South

Southerleigh is always a treat! This location is bright and cozy; we've always been fortunate to not have to wait long for a table.The drink selection is fantastic - love the cocktails with and without alcohol. They have great happy hour deals.We usually split a half rotisserie chicken - it is always perfectly seasoned and the skin is soooo good. They even have a queso appetizer that comes decked out with chicken skins. Highly recommend it!The Mac and cheese is our favorite along with the honey fried biscuit. You have to have it, it is life changing. You have to check this place out when you're out at the Rim shopping or maybe before watching a movie at Palladium. Definitely one of my favorite date night spots.

1/4 bird fried with mash potatoes ROOSTER RITARooster Rita was very refreshing and tasty. I did add Strawberry flavor to it. The mash potatoes were made from real potatoes and delicious The biscuit was awesome. Very light and delicious The fried chicken earned it's reputation as being very good. I had the white meat, regular flavor, which was juicy and delicious

02 Jan 2025Not special, but not bad. We didn't go in through the front door. Oops. We stood by the bar and then a server seated us. The menu is mostly fried food, which is OK with me. A fairly different menu from what we are used to at the Pearl location. I ordered a bowl of gumbo its description seemed OK - chicken, sausage, rice, okra, the usual gumbo ingredients. Served with saltines. It has a very good texture, just thick enough, not runny. Alas, it has no kick. No spice at all. No bottle of Tabasco on the table to help it either. I had the chicken tenders and fries. Five large pieces of chicken and seasoned fries. Served with remoulade sauce and a sweet sauce. Both of these were very thin and runny. The sweet sauce had a good flavor; the other not so much. The star of my meal is the large honey biscuit. Flaky, soft and delicious. The rest of the meal, meh. Ironically, I boxed the leftovers to go and forgot the container on the table. Oh well. Must be Freudian. The husband had a chicken sandwich with the fries. He ate it, but wasn't thrilled. Iced tea is $2.95. Borderline no bueno. If you live in the neighborhood I guess it's worth a try. Do not drive across town to eat here. Go to the Pearl location.

Food was great. The honey on top of the cornbread was super tasty. I ordered a cup of the chili and I'm so glad I did because it was huge and apparently the bowl is way bigger. Service was great - but it is super loud inside. I do wish they didn't use seed oils to fry and cook with but heavy sigh.....

The restaurant is very inviting and casual. The atmosphere was relaxed and employees were great. We sat at the bar and had our drinks made fresh. We were able to order some plates and everything was delicious. I will be visiting this place again and also recommend this establishment.

Decided to go with the fried chicken and red beans and rice.. superb! The chicken was fried perfectly. A bit salty but I had already had a few adult beverages so it was ok lol. The red beans were flavored well. You can taste the love they put into them. Will be back there soon!

Late post on the early family birthday celebration this past Sunday. It's been a while since we've been to Southerleigh Haute South so hubby and I chose to have dinner there. We noticed that on Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays, they have Game Day Specials from 7pm - 9pm for the football season, which includes food and drinks.We decided to try the Wings in Hot Honey and Regular Honey (6 each). The wings were decent size and tasted very good. Hubby and I had the Margarita, and Dad had Lemonade. My one sister-in-love had the Chicken Pot Pie with salad, and the other one had Fish and Chips. Dad and I shared the Fish with mashed potatoes. Hubby had the Half Chicken with salad. All the food was piping hot and 2 thumbs up! Lindsay brought us the Apple Hand Pie with 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream and Bread Pudding as a complimentary sweet ending. Though Lindsay was new to serving, she did a phenomenal job with our large group.We also enjoyed my sister-in-love's homemade Texas Sheet Cake. So chocolatey rich and yummy!

First time at this establishment, and it was phenomenal !! The waitress was super sweet and recommended the chicken wings. The mashed potatoes with gravy were so flavorful and the spicy rub on the wings were kicking! A friend and I got a bottle of champagne and had mimosas on their patio. Beautiful weather, vibes, everything! Have to come back during happy hour !!

Hanging Out at Southerleigh Haute South for Happy HourLast month, the ladies and I craved a light treat, so we headed over to Southerleigh Haute South at the Rim for Happy Hour. I arrived around 4:30 PM to beat the 6 PM rush, especially with San Antonio participating in Culinaria, also known as Restaurant Week. Parking was easy, and the foot traffic at the RIM was light, allowing me to find a spot close to the entrance.I arrived first and was greeted by the hostess, who seated me while I waited for the rest of my group. The waitress came over, and I browsed the menu, debating whether to opt for the Culinaria selections. Culinaria is a bi-annual event that offers diners a preselected menu at a fixed price, usually around $35 to $45. I decided to stick to the Happy Hour menu instead. To get a head start for the ladies, I ordered a dozen oysters and chicken wings ($1 each) along with some fried pickles. The oysters were fresh, with just the right amount of salt.When the ladies arrived, we added deviled eggs ($24 for eight) and honey biscuits to our order. While I love deviled eggs, I was shocked at the price. Though tasty, they didn't seem worth the cost. Our waitress refilled our drinks, and we added mac and cheese ($9) and two orders of meat pies. Unfortunately, the mac and cheese, covered in a queso sauce, lacked flavor, and the meat pies, which resembled greasy empanadas, were disappointing. Even the wings, though affordable, were too salty.I've never been let down by the downtown location, which feels more upscale, but this visit left me a bit disappointed. It was a fun outing with the ladies, but with so many other restaurants at the RIM, it may be a while before I return to this spot.-- Da Islandgal29412

Leave your calorie/macros counter at the door. Came in for lunch and was a little slow but we didn't mind. Our chicken sandwiches were so delicious. The weather was on our side so we enjoyed eating in their patio
