Local Food Fight
Forth visit to Southern Grocery. Twice in a party of two, once in a large group of 16, and this time solo.

We’ve ordered the Monte Cristo, Fried Oyster Small Plate, Seafood Nachos, and The Debris

What we love:
1. Southern Grocery is on my short list for out-of-town guests. The menu is reminiscent of what you might find in a larger city – loads of options but with quirky names and a southern signature. It has a large footprint for larger parties and an eclectic, contemporary design.

2. A server who gives you just the right amount of attention is hard to find. Drezdon has a rare urgency and efficiency, with the ability to listen, take orders, answer questions about the menu and make recommendations.

Minor Criticisms:
1. I ordered the seafood nachos for the second time. I like my food almost too hot to eat, and while it was tasty, it could’ve been served much hotter for my liking.

Overall, Southern Grocery is a win on the list of places to dine in the Shoals. I’ll be back soon, and bring guests!

I absolutely loved my whole experience, the restaurant is beautiful, we came for my friends 30th birthday, our server Aiden was so sweet and definitely took our jokes well, my steak did come out cold but Aiden and Ryan handled it so well I couldn’t even be upset about it. Ryan is an amazing manager, I loved how he handled everything for us and even got my friend a bday drink since she doesnt do desert. Im from Texas and cannot wait to go back

It’s so beautiful. The twinkle lights in the windows are just so calming. The food was fabulous. I had the gnocchi with green beans and chicken and it was great. The sauce and tomatoes in it are so good. My most favorite thing is the Carmel cheesecake. It’s so good and it’s a good size portion. It’s the best.

My girlfriend and I went out for date night at Southern Grocery on a night in September. We were greeted promptly by our server, Ben, who welcomed us warmly and offered suggestions for an appetizer. After ordering drinks we landed on the Southern Trash Board, which is the Southern/Zydeco riff on a charcuterie board. A few minutes later, Ben delivered a board with: pimento cheese, three Devine Deviled Eggs, whipped feta cheese, smoked sausage, pickles, naan bread (I think), pork-rinds, and a sriracha honey chutney. The combinations were fantastic, and every bite satisfying. A short time later out came Ben with our entree’s. We opted for the Zydeco Shrimp with corn maque choux, crawfish stuffing, and southern style turnip greens. Ben asked if I wanted pepper sauce to go with my greens. After tasting them I declined! They were flavorful to the point of being competitive with Husk’s greens out of Nashville. I was quite impressed with the maque choux. The blackened shrimp was also quite tasty. My girlfriend opted for the Pork Tenderloin skewers, wrapped in bacon and brushed with the honey sriracha glaze. Sides were: cheese grits, and the lobster Mac and cheese. The lobster Mac and cheese was definitely worth the $6 upgrade because it had lobster in every bite. And the tenderloin was also savory, juicy, and cooked to perfection. I can say without a doubt that we will be back. I’ll be asking for Ben again! The atmosphere has a timeless charm that works perfectly with the menu. It wasn’t loud at all so we were able to have a wonderful conversation over our meal. I highly recommend this eatery for the price point. Expect to pay a little more than other local establishments, but also expect to be impressed!

Our fist time at this place for our one year anniversary. We made reservations and everything. Our table was set with a cute candle and everything. As soon as we walked in the atmosphere was beautiful and relaxing. Our server Adam K (I am bad with names. Said he was new) but he was so interactive and gave insight on the menu as if he has been there for ages. He did an excellent job. The drinks were outta this world. My hubby is a city boy and has had the hardest time finding a place that will make a whiskey sour the correct way (boujie I know) and not only could the bartender make it he presented it with such perfection that it had my hubby ready to trade me in on our anniversary the appetizer came (spinach artichoke dip) and it didn’t even stand a chance. By the time our dinner came we didn’t know how much better this could get. But I ordered the ribeye and he ordered the fried shrimp. I was a little sad yall ran out of the mashed sweet potato but as soon as I took my first bite of the steak that didn’t even matter anymore. The flavors were packed with pure love and soul. The steak was cooked absolutely perfectly to the temp I requested. You could taste the passion the chef has for what he does. The rice pilaf was amazing and the herbs in the rice were so vibrant and fresh.
Our first time stepping foot inside Southern Grocery and we fell even more in love as the night progressed. Thank you every one of you that made our anniversary memorable. We will be back for our regular date nights now.

My husband and I had a great dinner at Southern Grocery in Sheffield.
We started with the crab claw appetizer, which was delicious.
I enjoyed the Spa Day cocktail. It was light and refreshing. I tried my husband’s Bravazzi Bellini, and it was good, too.

For dinner, I had the blackened chicken over rice with a twice baked potato, and it was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. My husband enjoyed his burger with onion rings. The only minor note is that the bun had a little too much butter for his liking, but everything else was great.

I love the atmosphere here. It’s relaxed and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for dinner.
Next time, I want to try the Debris sandwich. It looks amazing.

We will definitely be back!

We stopped in here near lunchtime just because we had some time to kill, and my, oh my, what an outstanding place! I heard about it on the radio (Q107.3!) and saw a billboard in town… Plus, my neighbors said it was definitely worth the drive to Sheffield, nestled right up next to Muscle Shoals.
There were four of us girls so we opted to sit at the bar on the corner so we could talk and not take up a table. Ryan, the bartender, was personable and recommended his favorite drink and appetizer… He made us one of the best old-fashioneds I’ve ever had, and the whipped feta appetizer was something I will dream about and come back for. While we were sitting there chatting, the owner even came over and said hello and introduced himself (Wade). The decor is absolutely stunning— so cool everywhere you look inside and out! The menu is something I will be back for with my foodie grown kids to experience, and I cannot recommend Southern Grocery enough!

We have been to this establishment twice now. They are consistent across the board. One of the cleanest and best service we have had the pleasure of experiencing in the shoals area.

“SUPERIOR DINING!”
On Tuesday, July 22, 2025, my party of two adults had dinner at Southern Grocery restaurant, in Sheffield, Alabama.

When approaching the building, I found the architecture to be modern and pretty impressive. Upon entering the restaurant, one sees that its decor is modern and “a feast for the eyes.”

For my entré during this visit — which was my first time dining here — I chose the ribeye steak. And for my sides I chose the twice potatoes and a house salad.

Our waitress was friendly, helpful, and attentive. The meal arrived quickly and was impressively presented.

My ribeye steak was prepared as I requested and was nicely marinated, tender, and delicious. The twice baked potatoes were loaded, cheesy, and delicious as well.

Since I wasn’t overly hungry that evening, I didn’t get a chance to sample my salad there at the restaurant. But, upon eating it later, I found it to be very good as well.

The portion sizes were generous, and I had enough of my meal remaining after I was satiated to take home as leftovers for a future meal.

Needless-to-say, I was exceedingly pleased with my meal there. So, compliments to our waitress, the chef, and the ENTIRE team at the Southern Grocery restaurant, in Sheffield, Alabama, for an EXTREMELY enjoyable dining experience.



Sincerely,

G. Curtis
