Deacon’s New South

I loooovvveeeed our waitress!!!! I think her name was Ally! With the Staten Island and home town accent! She knows who she is!!!!! Beautiful spirit and a true passion for customer service ! It has been a couple of weeks since my party of 8 visited. But it was delightful! The waitress was THE BEST ! She provided suggestions with everything! She was courteous, professional, attentive , intentional, and even went as far as to provide a history lesson on the building the restaurant was in! The food was phenomenal ! I had a NY Strip steak and it was seasoned to perfection! The sides were delicious…. Greens, carrots, mashed potatoes, mushrooms, and Mac n cheese! Now, the hot lemon and ginger tea to cap my meal was glorious… absolute sin! The entire evening, from the scenery to the over all ambiance could not have been any better! Deacon’s Thank you!

Would have given 5/5 except it was too warm in the place, at least where we were seated about 100 feet from the front reception area, and lemonade wasn't freshly made. Dry aged bone in Kansas city strip was 20 Oz huge portion and cooked as I requested, medium. Good dry aged flavor. 36oz whiskey aged ribeye was a bit undercooked for our medium request, but still was good. Not an overwhelming whiskey flavor which wound up good, but was a bit pricey at $180, listed as mkt price on menu. Cheddar biscuits were great, apple butter tasty. Side order of carrots was good as well. Adult drinks were tasty, although lemonade didn't taste freshly made, maybe powder? Dessert ice cream was good, but relatively small 3 scoops. Our server was attentive and great overall!

Made reservations and had an early dinner. Food was amazing! Everything we ordered was wonderful! Fried green tomatoes were delicious! For the main course we chose noodles and crawfish and added scallops - scrumptious! We learned that the pasta is homemade by “Aaron” (great job!!). Our waiter was welcoming, very friendly and gave us ideas about things to do in the city. He was pretty awesome!

We ate here last October (2022) and I am still thinking about how amazing this place is. We got a 9oz aged filet to share in addition to our meals, and I can say without a doubt that it is the best steak I've ever had EVER. We also had roast chicken, the pork chop, brussel sprouts, potatoes aligot, blackened gulf fish AND cake bc it was my son's birthday. If we are in Nashville, we will certainly be back.

2 for dinner Good atmosphere...attentive service 6oz filet was perfectly prepared and served with fresh horseradish. 5 of 5 Fingerling potatoes dusted with parmeson cheese 🧀 were on the dry side....3 of 5 Eggplant dish with risotto was 6 of 5. Yes. 6 of 5- clear winner for tastiest entree over the delicious steak. Side of carrots were cooked with an Asian pepper sauce producing a heat that hits your soul. 6 of 5... @#$% potatoes. Why did I order potatoes?
