Set in the Lumber Shed building smack dab in the middle of the Yards Park, Due South is bright and airy with high ceilings and walls of windows. But the wraparound patio with its stellar views of the park and river is the place to be. This kitchen's compass certainly points south and smoked meats are ever-present, but there's nothing simple about their prettied-up Southern-style cooking, enhanced with seasonal produce. Kale and heirloom tomatoes take the lead out of typically heavy shrimp and grits, while the Brunswick stew is particularly flavorful. If the hanger steak with broccoli rabe feels a little too-well, northern-take refuge in a slice of pie or cobbler. Beers by the draft or bottle are plentiful, but check the rotating list of specialty brews.
