Overall a great experience. My husband had the shrimp and grits (a favorite of his) and I had the vegetable plate which is always fantastic. I ordered the tres leches cake (gluten and dairy free but I didn’t order it for those reasons) and it was probably one of the worst desserts I’ve ever had. The cake was very grainy and the flavor was not appealing. This is the first time I’ve ever had something there that I didn’t like. I should have realized a three milk cake without dairy would probably not be great so lesson learned. The dessert experience will not stop me from future visits to this fantastic establishment.

Shrimp and grits had a wonderful taste but were served somewhere between room temperature and warm. This was disappointing since with drinks, desserts and tip we spent $130. Waitress did not ask how our food was.

Lovely restaurant and fabulous food, great hospitality. We were still talking about how good everything was the next day. Loved the stuffed squash blossoms and the deviled eggs. All our entrees—steak, shrimp and grits, pasta were delicious. For dessert, the tres leches cake with coffee buttercream was the best thing I’ve had in ages.

We’ve never been disappointed. We love the ambience and the fresh twist on Southern classic food. (Try the pickled shrimp from the appetizer menu.) Everything was fresh and delicious. Save room for dessert! If you want a more private date, book the sidecar lounge.

The restaurant is pretty, the service was good, and the ingredients looked very fresh. But there was extremely too much spice (including sugar), vinegar, mayo, etc. added to the salads I ordered as part of a four “vegetable” plate. The natural flavors of the kale, watermelon, cucumber, and chicken were unfortunately overwhelmed and undetectable.

We love The Noble South. But last night was extra special. The vegetables were spectacular - and the lima beans were out of this world. Scallops were tender and juicy. The beet and butternut salad was fabulous. Chicken sausage Parm...perfect. Topped it all off with some of the best banana pudding on this earth. We have loved Noble South for a long time. Now we love it even more.

It was a wonderful moment having dinner there. the food was amazing, fresh, and tasty. we were having dinner for my husband's birthday, they gave us a candle for the desert for my husband. the service was perfect. Barret the server was so nice, friendly, and always checking on us. The food came so fast after we ordered, and the drink was also really good. The place and vibe are so clean and neat. Highly recommended, also the price is worth it not too high. everything was so amazing.

Lunch at Noble South is a welcome change of pace. Love their lunch menu which has a little bit of everything anyone could want. Salads, veggie plates, meat and 2/3/4. The service is always brilliant. Stop thinking this is a splurge lunch spot. It’s reasonably priced for the quality of the food and the awesome service.
