text: Very nice evening tonight at Southern Rail delicious southerninspired food great atmosphere Quite impressed with the entire place having hit the ground running after only a couple of days The space is beautifully designed with interesting touches and is slightly elevated from Camelback road which gives it a nice view of the surrounding area without the sometimes grimy reality of west camelback road Extensive beer selection with some southern favorites as well as a wine list that should suit anyone The menu is southern so if you are looking to go light you might be better off elsewhere We had the tomato and bacon tart which was decadent We also had the gumbo which had perfectly smoky flavor and a not too thick roux We did not think the three tiny headon shrimp were worth the supplement however Finally the pork loan was delicious with a smoky candied flavor and delicious sweet potatoes Desserts looked wonderful but we could not muster another bite A couple of kinks with service and timing that we can overlook because it has been open less than a week but overall a wonderful night at a place that is definitely on our rotation from here on Excited to try the rest of the menu as we will be back many times
