Southern Belle is Chef Joey Ward's critically acclaimed restaurant located in Atlanta's Poncey-Highland neighborhood. Southern Belle offers delicious, locally sourced, seasonal cuisine highlighting the multicultural influences from our great city all presented with a pinch of whimsy. The best way to experience Southern Belle is to order multiple dishes to share, while toasting with expertly crafted cocktails or exploring our curated wine selections. Located two doors from the historic Plaza Theater, Southern Belle offers a vibe and culinary experience that is Authentically Atlanta.

Southern Belle is connected through a secret passageway to Chef Joey's second restaurant, Georgia Boy, a multi-course chef's table experience.

Chef Joey is joined by a talented crew of well-known names in the Atlanta culinary landscape, including General Manager Kelsey Cortez and Chef de Cuisine Grant Crain.
