Southern National

The Summerhill neighborhood has changed a lot since the celebrated team behind Southern National first made city headlines at One Flew South. But even with the area’s new breweries and leashed dogs, one thing remains the same—for a restaurant to make it, the food’s gotta be good. SN feeds your eyes with an open, industrial-chic dining room and nourishes the body with great southern plates. The redfish over field peas and miso sauce is what you might make if you grew up with elders who watched Julia Child clips along with their stories—mozzarella, parmesan, and rigatoni taste like they come with a side of nostalgia in the exceptional lamb burger helper.
