Bartenders are very professional and friendly. Food is fantastic .The drinks are on point and not pricey .Djs are always great Karaoke Thursdays is an added bonus.
95 south is definitely a spot for vibes AND good food. My husband and I each had a half rack of ribs and it was a huge portion. The food was all very great quality and the bbq was actually finger lickin’ good as we say in the south. I’ve tried all the hipster bbq spots (Morgan’s, Pig Beach, Dinosaur, etc.) none of them were as good as this, like not even comparable. The music was a little too loud for a Monday night and service was kinda slow but it is somewhere we would come back to for sure.
We were there on Tuesday, July 29th for my man 64th birthday party! We had an absolute blast!! The place was beautiful inside! The service, the food and the drinks were excellent!! The DJ was the absolute best!! A friendly atmosphere! My man had the time of his life!! This is definitely a "Happy Place"! Thanks to all staff in this fine establishment!
If I could give this place negative stars for the food, I absolutely would. My friend and I went after attending First Saturday at the Brooklyn Museum, and it was our first and last time. I ordered the fried chicken dinner with candied yams and mac and cheese as my sides to go, which took over half an hour to arrive, because the kitchen was "running behind." When I got it, the food was absolutely horrid, cold, and stale. The fried chicken was bland and had been cooked in the same oil as seafood, which, if I had an anaphylactic allergy to seafood, I would be dead or hospitalized in the ICU. A huge NO-NO!!! The candied yams were canned and, as such, had a bizarre taste and texture. And, the macaroni and cheese was overly seasoned with garlic powder. Nothing, and I do mean nothing, was fresh or prepared that day. If you decide to eat there and you have an anaphylactic allergy to seafood, make sure you carry your EpiPen. A memorably disastrous first experience, I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. SMH!
Leigha and the whole staff were professional, friendly, and attentive. They knew the regulars and had a joke with each one, but they took care of everyone as if they were regulars. Definitely plan on returning.
My first time going to 95 south, definitely was turned off by the security, older Gentleman charging cover charge to some people at the front door then not charging others in my same party a cover charge. Then we had 2 people arrive 5 minutes earlier and same situation with them. I was just so turned off by the whole thing I Would not return. But my short time in there the crowd was live and the music was good but Security 0. I wish I got a picture of the guy but the whole situation annoyed me I didn't even remember to get one.
Reasonably priced with a staff that cares in a location that's just right. Their warm approach creates comfort immediately. Their cooking demonstrates culinary skill. This location enhances the experience. This place satisfied me completely.
