"Spring Garden’s South is part Southern restaurant and part jazz club. It has two impressive seating options—an open atrium and a garden space—and between the live music, solid cocktails, and outdoor space, it’s one of the most romantic spots in the neighborhood. If you want to impress your date with something other than the saxophone solos, make sure to order the shrimp and grits. The grits are buttery, creamy, and drenched in a peppery creole brown sauce. It’s a small portion, though, so you order the buttermilk fried chicken to round out the meal. " - candis mclean
