I basically reserve writing reviews at all for places that REALLY stand out to me as great restaurants. Southern Rail is in the running for my new favorite restaurant in the valley. Amidst all of the amazing local food coming out of Central Phoenix lately, this place leads the pack for me. I lived in Georgia for a couple years and developed a deep love for American southern cooking. Phoenix doesn't have a lot of true southern food restaurants besides Lolo's--this place is SEVERAL steps up from Lolo's in quality, atmosphere, and aesthetic. Of course, with that, it's several steps up in price as well. We had great service. I've read in some other reviews that it's a noisy place. I didn't have that experience myself, probably since we went on a Tuesday evening. Our server was very enthusiastic about the food and made some on-point recommendations. The building is beautiful. A restored historic structure that now houses 3 great local businesses: Southern Rail Restaurant, Changing Hands Bookstore (with a beer/wine/coffee bar called "First Draft"), and Southwest Gardener. Awesome atmosphere and great people.
