Best Southern American Restaurants in Willowbrook

We couldn’t have asked for a better spot to celebrate Galentine’s Day! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was chef’s kiss—warm lighting, chic decor, and just the right vibe for a night of laughter and good food. Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely divine! Every dish was plated beautifully and bursting with flavor. The scallop, shrimp and risotto was a must-try, and don’t even get me started on the cocktails. The WTH signature cocktail was the perfect mix of sweet and strong! The service was top-notch too! From the hostess, who was ann anbs delight, the bartender and our server were attentive, gave great recommendations, and made us feel like VIPs. Whether you’re celebrating friendship, love, or just life in general, this place is a total win. Can’t wait to come back! #GalentinesDoneRight #GirlsNightOut #FiveStars

We tried a few different food items and YUM! The berry French toast was as you’d expect, soft and sweet. So good! The tamales were pretty good. I preferred without the salsa provided but my husband liked it better with salsa. I had delta breakfast sammich and that was delish and filling. Served with hash brown potatoes which I don’t eat. Only thing is the dj starts at 2pm on Saturday, which is cool, but we met up with someone we hadn’t seen in a while and it’s hard to catch up over extremely loud music lol Thta was our mistake though. Fun vibe l, if you didn’t go there to talk, for sure.

Took hubby here for his birthday. This was our second time visiting. The food was just as we remembered, if not even better! We started off with the gumbo, which was hearty in itself. My husband had the Short ribs, which were tender and flavorful. I had the blackened catfish, which was flaky, seasoned well, and melted in my mouth. We also ordered as sides: collard greens, mac n cheese, and cornbread. OMG, I could've lived off the cornbread alone! Greens were cooked to perfection, and mac n cheese was creamy but not overly cheesy. Needless to say, our eyes were bigger than our stomachs, and we had a lot of leftovers. The service was top-notch, and it was a great experience overall. It is a small space, so be prepared to maybe sit a little close to other patrons. It was cool for us, great conversation. We will definitely be back, try something else, and remember those sides are enough to 2👍🏾

Great food, ambiance, and service. Please visit asap

Food was fantastic. Ample portions I always have leftovers. Service exceptional. Jasmine has been my server in several occasions and is at the top of her game in terms of being courteous and attentive. Previously Roux was my fave in the neighborhood but now Dawn has become my go to spot for breakfast and brunch. Make reservations ahead of time they book quickly.
