9 Best Southern Restaurants in Boston

“Must make a reservation to this spot. There is indoor and outdoor seating in this picturesque part of Boston.Starting with the signature warm honey glazed biscuits. This wasn't it for me. The glaze was baked on and created a hard almost sticky crust. The inside was more of a cornbread texture than biscuit.Everything is shareable so we got the New Orleans BBQ shrimp. Which was extremely flavorful. Definitely heavy on the veggies and a nice amount of shrimp. The house special buttermilk fried chicken was so crunchy and delicious. You don't need any sauce. Lastly the tuna was very good also.Ending with the fried beignets. Finally a spot outside of New Orleans that gets it right. Light, fluffy I could've just kept popping them.The drinks we got were the praline espresso martini ,Jenny herbal peach tea lemonade and Divination. All are recommended.“

“Food came out very quickly. When the food was served they also gave us several bottles of various sauces to use at our discretion, which as a sauce enjoyer I greatly appreciated. The fried chicken and pulled BBQ chicken were both excellent, especially with sauce. The restaurant is certainly a bit noisy and active but the food will quickly absorb your attention.“

“what can we can say, Grace by Nia did not disappoint it exceeded the expectations. What a wonderful place the restaurant is TOPSHELF the cuisine is a fusion of Cajun creole flare seasoned well with a wonderful array of spices, every dish was good. we had a party of 10 and all the Appetizers on the menu and most of Entrees were ordered.

“Nice choice after we viewed the Gardner museum which is a ten minute walk even on a rainy day on a Saturday afternoon. Service was friendly. Get the biscuits and a brisket burnt ends sandwich. Side salad was also very good with Brussels sprouts hazelnuts and other ingredients!“

“Absolutely delightful! The food selection is incredible, and all of our selections were done to perfection. Very nice wine list - something for everyone. Of course, an ample cocktail list. Attentive waitstaff who do not hover. Cozy environment.Thoroughly enjoyed our meal and time there. Will definitely go again.“

“Get the biscuits. Don't think; just get them. Thank me later. You get four per order and each one takes two bites. They're out of this world! I could eat them all day. I also got gumbo. I'm from the South, Gulf Coast, so I know my gumbo. Chef knows what he's doing. The roux is dark and velvety, with the right amount of spice. You can get full on a cup. Shrimp are enormous, and crab is so tender. Lots of yummy okra and peppers (I wish those were chopped smaller). The cocktails are delicious too. This is a neighborhood bar/restaurant you'll want to come back to time and time again. Eat everything. Also, Haley is ab awesome bartender! Super helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable about all the things.“

“Why can I not order wings on the Doordash app? I can order everything else but NOT wings??The food is great, service could be better.Multiple times I stopped by during lunch for wings and their excuse was "No wings right now, check back at 2 pm". I did check back after the recommended time and still no wings.. ridiculous .. A real hit or miss if you stop by the TD HUB a lot for lunch.Main reason for this review is to add "wings" as an option to order PICKUP on the Doordash app.“

“We are big fan of Loretta's Last Call and have been here many times. If you're looking for a down home southern experience this won't let you down. Live music and dancing is always grear here. On this particular visit we came for the Johnny Cash brunch, and it was a lot of fun. What excellent service from Gail today!My only piece of feedback is about our visit was about the biscuits and gravey, as seen on the menu. Be prepared for the irony when it comes out and is served with only a single biscuit... Well... It is a southern themed restaurant. We'll be back, we love this place... Bad grammer and all. No judgement - I'm just a simple guy from Indiana ?!“

“dined here before seeing a comedy show at the wilbur. excellent service, great food, and speedy. they were great about making sure we were out in time for our show. the food is really good and so are the drinks! i'd definitely recommend it.“
