I visited Southerleigh Haute South for a happy hour kind of dinner They had a great special going on during the NBA playoffs so we had their amazing oysters on the half shell, wings and margaritas. Their oysters are so good, very high quality and the wings were crispy, hot and juicy. Pairing it all with a few margaritas made for a perfect dinner. Our server was amazing and helpful. He was very attentive and recommended the fried fruit pies (also delicious) I left full, satisfied and pleasantly surprised by my bill considering all of the food I purchased! I am ready to head back over for happy hour!! read more

Unfortunately this was a no for us due to dry chicken, bland coleslaw, a salty greasy biscuit with raw spots, and an interior that amplifies noise. The flavor in the chicken batter was good and the coleslaw dressing was ok but there wasn't enough of it. The cocktail flights looked fantastic. Deviled eggs were ok. Service was weirdly inconsistent so maybe there was an issue today? read more

We gave this place a try, and I genuinely want to see it do well because [[HIGHLIGHT]]the space itself is really nice, the location works, the decor is beautiful, and the staff were polite.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] That said, the food didn't quite meet expectations. Having spent considerable time in Louisiana, I've had solid Cajun and Creole cooking, so I'm coming in with a fair point of reference. The 1/4 chicken was mostly breading with not much substance underneath. The okra came out cold, and the gumbo was uneven-part of it hot, part of it not which made it feel more reheated than freshly prepared. Service was courteous, but a bit inconsistent in terms of attentiveness. I'm sharing this in the spirit of wanting the restaurant to improve, because it has a lot going for it. With more consistency in the kitchen and a bit more focus on execution, it could be a much stronger experience. read more

Excellent fried chicken best I have had in a really long time. The biscuit was like a delicious desert! Yummy my husband had the fish and chips and was very pleased. Service was prompt and courteous. Highly recommend this adorable restaurant. read more

We went back to Southerleigh for Restaurant Week last weekend. For $30, you got an appetizer, choice of main course, and a dessert. In my experience, Restaurant Week dishes were normally smaller portions, but not at Southerleigh! We ordered 3 Dinners and had enough for another two meals, and every bite was incredible. Chicken Cracklins: How these were not in a pool of grease and were perfectly crispy and seasoned was impressive but not a surprise, because Southerleigh knows how to fry chicken! Deviled Eggs: They're the devil because I could eat 12 of them and have no regrets. Creamy, nice bit of bacon on top, and absolutely delicious. Fried Pickles (GF): Y'all. I've never had fried pickles like these before. Perfectly crispy and not even a little greasy. Ranch was delicious, special sauce excellent. I could eat those fried pickles every day - my doctor would love it. Half Chicken (GF): Outstanding. I'm forever amazed but how good this GF chicken is. Unreal. 10/10. Chicken Wings: Fried Catfish: If you have a friend whose faces squishes up in disgust when you suggest fried catfish, take them here and get them this fish. Remoulade was perfect. But the crust on that fry and how light it was + how non-greasy or heavy that fried catfish was...there are no words. I could have eaten that catfish all day. What a treat! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Top it off with great, friendly service amidst being sat with multiple tables at once, a wonderfully clean restaurant, and just another top notch experience, and I have decided that I'll need to bar myself from Southerleigh for a minute because I can only buy so many new pairs of bigger pants.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Go and enjoy this comfort food, GF or not! read more

Located in the busy La Cantera shopping area , Southerleigh has good fried chicken. We tried their spicy chicken (they have regular or spicy) and it had the perfect amount of kick. We had one of our orders of chicken covered with the cajun butter and shrimp, and it was also good. Make sure that you grab some of the honey -drizzled fried biscuits. Good happy hour specials ! read more

Stumbled upon Southerleigh while roaming around at The Rim and so glad we did! The service was great. Our server was very attentive and gave amazing recommendations. My drink was part of the Valentine's Day options and it was incredible. I ordered the Bourbon Chicken and requested it on a wrap and it was probably one of the most delicious wraps I have ever tried. The sweet bourbon sauce on the chicken was exceptional. My husband ordered the seafood basket and he too enjoyed it. Overall, it was a good time and I can't wait to come back! read more

Fried food heaven if you are in the mood for comfort food! The fried pickles and Mac and cheese balls were delicious and we loved the hot honey sauce the mac came with. I'd recommend these and a frozen drink perfect for a happy hour. We were full after the appetizers but had already ordered the chicken sandwich duo and pasta diabla. The pasta was good but it's not a mild dish as the spice level creeps up on you as you eat. The chicken was so good, but I do wish we realized the biscuits for the sandwiches also came fried. read more

We have been here 3 times and we had 3 different experiences. 1st time was a 5/5 the food and service were impeccable. 2nd time was a 3/5 the food was great but the service was seriously lacking that day. This 3rd time was a 4/5. The food was super tasty but the crab boil was cold and my wife won't complain she'll just deal with it. I always get the spicy chicken quarters and I have loved it each time! Chicken has always been cooked perfectly and very well seasoned! My wife always gets the crab boil, the 1st time it was perfect, 2nd time was like the bottom of the bag of crab pieces and this 3rd time it was cold. For sides we have had the deviled Eggs, the chicken cracklins, meat pies, the mac n cheese, chili, and the mashed potatoes and everything has been amazing! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The employees have always been super kind and very helpful and the restaurant is always clean and comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will definitely go back again, we just now wonder what will "it" be this time.... Hopefully perfect! ;) read more

My wife and I stopped for lunch and the food was very good. I had the smash burger and it was delicious. The fries are amazing with an incredible seasoning and perfectly crispy. My wife had shrimp and was also very good. She loved the mac & cheese side. Service was fine. My only complaint is the water they serve - it tastes terrible. We mentioned that to our server and she told us , "A lot of people say that". We live nearby and our tap water doesn't taste that bad. It was a hot day, so we just wanted water, but it was so bad we ordered ice tea and a bottle of sparkling water (they don't offer bottles of still water). Maybe that's their strategy to get customers to buy drinks. read more

First time at Southerleigh and we'll definitely be back! For drinks, we tried the Son of a Biscuit Old Fashioned and the frozen vodka lemonade with guava. The guava was absolutely phenomenal. The chicken cracklings were perfectly crispy and flavorful, and brunch did not disappoint either. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The outdoor patio had such a warm, inviting atmosphere, perfect for a relaxed weekend meal with great people-watching and a nice breeze.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Be sure to ask for Nick as your server. He was excellent, attentive, and genuinely kind. Overall, a wonderful experience from start to finish. We can't wait to come back for their oyster happy hour! read more

Carbs? Yes please. My friends and I came for restaurant week and this place did not disappoint. I can't speak on the value for their regular priced menu items because I did not look at how much their items are on their regular menu butttt the food I'm sure is well worth the price! The waitress was super kind and nice and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the place was chill and seemed like a great place to hang and have a conversation while eating, I didn't feel rushed to get out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would love to try this place again! read more

02 Jan 2025 Not 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. read more

Don't believe the hype. The food was absolutely awful. I order the fish and chips. The fish was overly breaded and both the fish and fries tasted like they were fried in old oil. Both of my sisters ordered fried chicken and after a couple of bites decided to pass. Yes, the food was terrible but the wait staff was good - very attentive. There are many other restaurants options in the area - you can do much better. read more

When I was looking for a new place my wife and I had not been before. We were in the Rim area and came across Southerleigh Haute South. One look at the fried chicken and I knew this was the place to go. I got the 1/2 chicken plate with coleslaw, my wife had the fried shrimp. But it was Happy hour! So we started with $1 oysters & chicken wings. 3 deviled eggs and a margarita. Great happy hour bar food. You can order the chicken with original or spicy. I got my dark meat with original and the breast with spicy. Loved them both. Spicy is has some heat but not lip burning. Now, let's talk about the biscuits. These are amazing! More of a dessert because they cover them in honey butter. I talked to the manager about how I thought they made them and I was right. But he swore me to secrecy, so I can't tell you here. Just go and try them yourself and pit your best guess here in the comments. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We also enjoyed the atmosphere because it was lively but not too loud to talk to my wife.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Oh, the Old Fashion was pretty good too. read more

This is my second time coming to this location and honestly, I was quite disappointed by different things first I made a reservation, but somehow our food took a very long time to come out and we did not enjoy many of our entrées or sides including the greens (they were really sweet), deviled eggs (really cold and missing flavor), and green beans (lacked seasoning). I think they only had one waitress for the whole night and that also caused a lot of delays. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Our table was honestly too small for four people in the amount of food that we had so it just wasn't an enjoyable experience[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Overall, though the waitstaff was kind, and they did their best to be helpful and welcoming. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe in the restaurant was pretty chill for a weekday and it wasn't too loud[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I will say what we really enjoyed was the yams, salmon, fried chicken, and the meatloaf. They both get a five out of five for sure. These were so good, I forgot to get the photo lol! read more

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. read more

My spouse and I ate here over a period of 3 weeks, seemed we were becoming regular foodies. Service and food quality consistently good, fresh. Fried food is made with a specific batter for the food whether chicken, or fried pickles. In other words not the same batter. Batter not too heavy, and seasoned perfectly. Highly recommend you visit here for happy hour. Fried wings & pickles or the fried fresh oysters. Oh let's not forget the house special vodka lemonade. Don't recommend eating outside no fly control at all. Flies are annoying and nasty read more

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! read more

Hanging Out at Southerleigh Haute South for Happy Hour Last 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 read more

Food..very good. We had the chicken (got the spices on the side, glad we did, as it really had an extra kick) and an appetizer. Food was excellent , though I feel alittle pricey. The big disappointment was the service. Don't get me wrong, our server was attentive, however, when I went to pay, handed him a $100, he asked if I needed any change back, on. $50 check. Said of course, he then proceeded to bring me back the change, $40. ..hmm seems a bit short, and guess he took his own tip. So.. $0 .. from me. Either get people who can count, or train them better. Either way, you probably lost a customer in me. read more

Went on a Friday evening around 750 - they said it was a 45 min wait. It's Friday in that area so joined the waitlist - got a text about 35 mins later. We sat down and the waitress was pleasant and checked on us but it took a while just to place our food order and then it took longer than we enjoyed to get our food. Food was delicious 4/5 just cause the price is a little high for what it is but the margaritas are always delicious so that makes up for it a bit. I love the closeness of this location to my home but I would recommend giving their location at the pearl (which I know is a little more higher style type good) but is always a hit every time personally read more
