This steakhouse was fantastic! We went on a double date, and everybody was satisfied with their meals. Portions were generous and the presentation was great. The wait staff was very nice and professional. I deducted one star for atmosphere because the large group next to us was very, very loud and made it hard for us to hear each other.

Came here for a graduation dinner. The restaurant accommodated over 30 people! Delicious food. Delicious holiday themed drinks. Comfortable seats. Attentive waitress. Clean bathroom. It was perfect!

We went out to dinner with friends on my husband’s birthday weekend. There was a wait but the staff was friendly. Our drink order was taken promptly and food shortly after. They were a little busy but our waitress did her best to keep up with everything. We did have to send one prime rib back due to it being medium instead of rare, otherwise the food was seasoned to perfection. Definitely recommend if you’re hungry for steak and would like a nice night out.

They shoved a table in the corner beside the lobby that is partially blocking the bar entrance... Major deduction for atmosphere, there isn't any. Delicious food

For the exorbitant prices of the food it should have been flawless. My fries were ice cold in my prime rib was barely warm almost cool. The prime rib had zero flavor or seasoning of any type. Great waitress. Atmosphere that can be dressed up or dressed down.

Absolutely perfect experience. We booked half a banquet room for my Nursing school graduation dinner celebration. Southland kept consistent communication to assure they had the most accurate head count, and the correct information to make sure our experience was as pleasant as possible. They allowed us to pre order appetizers so they could be ready when we arrived. We had 2 wonderful waitresses for our group, the service was wonderful, the food was phenomenal. It was overall such an amazing experience. I highly recommend considering Southland to host your next event of any type! It was very organized, and very well done. I have no complaints at all!

I came here my first time after many recommendations. Quite busy and that's understandable and good . Of course I had to get a steak , must indulge in the foundation of a steakhouse to properly gauge the establishment. The ribeye was ok. I must say however, that I am a cook and I may be more of a strict critic than most. The chicken was quite good though. we had an older server named Linda who was very sweet and definitely fitting to the environment you look for in a more country setting. Over all a good restaurant that I will return to so I can experience other menu items.

I called to get a table for 16 the day of. I was told they were slammed, and we might have to wait. They accommodated our party without a wait they were great. The service was outstanding, and the food was amazing.
