"Depending on the day, 12 South can feel like tourist stew, but Urban Grub is for people who actually live here—and either made a reservation for the patio or just walked in and plopped themselves at the comfortably packed bar for a low-key steak dinner. In addition to meaty stuff like wagyu beef belly, double-cut pork chops, and Creekhouse Farm ribeyes, Urban Grub also has a great bourbon selection and outstanding weekend brunch." - jackie gutierrez jones 2
"For a low-key steak dinner where you can show up in flannels or flippies, head over to Urban Grub in 12 South. Depending on the day, the neighborhood can feel like tourist stew, but this spot fills up with locals who made a reservation for the patio or just walked in and plopped themselves at the comfortably packed bar. On their plates: wagyu beef belly, double-cut pork chops, and Creekhouse Farm ribeyes. They also have a great bourbon selection, so use that as an excuse to get a glass of something neat while wearing jammies. " - jackie gutierrez jones 2

"Urban Grub converted a former 12 South car wash into a stylish destination for seafood, charcuterie, and dry-aged steaks. Stake out a seat at a fire pit or in a private cabana and order a filet with caramelized shallots and Worcestershire butter, then add sides like smoked gouda chipotle grits and ham-hock collards. Finish strong with an order of banana pudding pie or a gluten-free chocolate hazelnut mousse cake." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Eater Staff
"Urban Grub on 12 South serves up a roaring fireplace and multiple heaters along with wine flights and oysters. Share a custom charcuterie board with your friends by a fire pit, or have a dry-aged bone-in New York strip from their butcher shop all to yourself (don’t skip out on the bone marrow bordelaise butter)." - Clara Wang, Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
