South House Garden - Gaithersburg, Maryland

Beautiful restaurant. Went here for a Galentine's Day brunch with a few ladies. I love the floral decorations at this establishment. It really gave off a modern cottagecore vibe there. They have a section of tables that have swings for seats. Very large bar. The parking lot was huge, so there were no complications on trying to find a parking spot. I ordered the chicken and waffle, and I think it might be the best I ever had. Only because I never tired it before with diced fresh fruit on top. I love my food, sweet and salty. My friend next to me was missing a few things on her plate, and it was fixed right away. I love how they split the check perfectly between 10 girls so easily. Some other restaurants are a nightmare when it comes to splitting checks! The bottomless mimosas was the highlight of our brunch 😂 I would recommend this place to everyone, and most definitely go back again!

Beautiful decor and good service! The bathrooms need a bit more upkeep during brunch though. We visited on September 1st.

A few of us indulged in bottomless mimosas. Others got different drinks off the menu. Service was a bit slow but the music got us by.

Not pictured but the salmon deviled eggs would win against the shrimp every time! We got multiple orders.

I got the surf & turf mac as well. The mac was the perfect amount of cheesy, if not more. And the lamb was cooked perfectly. We had a good time. There's also a jukebox inside so your party can play some music.

I’ve gone once before in January for my birthday and it was good. I went again today and it was even better. They got better seats, and the food and service were excellent. Medina, our waitress was very attentive. We had the surf and turf macncheese and those lamb chops were to die for! We also had catfish and grits, the banana foster, and chicken and waffles. Everything tasted great and the drinks were good as well. It was still very cute and nicely decorated inside and the football games were playing at the bar. I would visit again!

Listen, this place is a MUST visit and when you do, please ask for Miro, he’s the manager.
Long story short, our entire day was a mess and he turned it around by allowing us to dine while changing over from bunch to lunch. We were NOT rush to have our meal which was phenomenal. Very very tasty and presentation was beautiful. I saw this spot on Instragam and decided to try it out. I will be visiting again and I’m bringing EVERYONE! Please visit….. perfect bunch spot in MD
We got the chicken and waffle, avocado n toast with the shrimp devils egg

Hats off to the feminine decor! The shrimp Deviled eggs are delightful and the catfish creole grits were a hit! I recommend the bottomless mimosas!!

The restaurant is very beautiful inside and outside. You can definitely get some instagramable pics taken in there. I do think the service is a little slow, but the people are nice. I had the catfish and grits and it was pretty good. There is a scramble egg underneath the fish. For the shrimp and grits it looks like it also had sausage in it. My friend had the creole deviled eggs and I did think they were good. I did not try the friend toast, but for some reason she said she wasn't in love with it. I want to come again for dinner to see what that food is like. All in all, everything was good and I would go back. They have 2 big bars also for seating if you can't get a table. The service charge is confusing, is it a tip or nah?

We discovered this "frilly garden" restaurant while walking around an old stomping ground (Old Towne Plaza in Gaithersburg). It was Happy Hour time, so we gave "South House Garden" a try. The quite overpowering decor of artificial pink flowers (wall to ceiling) seemed Instagram-cute at first, but the longer we stayed, the more tawdry and excessive it began to look. And there were the swing sets that took the place of ordinary chairs, which got us excited at the start. Again, after a few sips of the Mango Margarita, there were times when it felt like we could actually slip off the swing seats and land on our derriéres! They weren't very comfortable either after a while. Well, there were regular chairs and tables too, so one really has a choice. The service rendered by "Carolina" (with the Vanessa Hudgens look to her) was good. She was pleasant, and she constantly checked on our needs. The Happy Hour food was okay - nothing mind-blowingly different from other establishments. The only complaint we had was the Cheesy Seafood Dip being "very salty." The whole place was huge, so we thought that it must be a neighborhood hot spot during peak hours. Anyway, we were concerned that the women's toilet, at that time (around 4 pm on a Thursday), had a very dim purplish lighting that had made it quite difficult to see anything clearly. Located in a recessed corner right next to the men's toilet, the low-light purple glow actually made it feel unsafe. We could imagine being assaulted inside the women's toilet and the quite empty place with the loud music might not prompt anyone to run in and help. Would we recommend this diner to anyone? Yes, but with the suggestion to check the full menu and with the information about the toilets.//

Chose this place for my kid’s 13 birthday party for the aesthetic. It was my third time here. I’ve been before for brunch and dinner.

I wanted to do a special set up for the party for 10 teen girls and they were very accommodating.

Our waiter (I wish I remembered his name) was attentive, friendly, and efficient.

The food and drinks came out in a timely manner and was delicious. And while the girls waited, they took advantage of the Instagram worthy atmosphere and games.

They are also priced nice. 10 meals, including gratuity, was just a bit over $300. I definitely recommend.
