“THE GREATEST SECRETS ARE ALWAYS HIDDEN IN THE MOST UNLIKELY PLACES.”
Georgia Boy is a Michelin Guide-recommended, multi-course, multi-sensory chef's table experience created by James Beard nominated Chef Joey Ward. Located inside a private dining room that is accessed through Southern Belle, the Georgia Boy tasting menu experience explores Ward's creative mind, introducing the cuisine of the South through his inventive, colorful lens.
The experience is intentionally dynamic, interactive, and intimate where guests are seated together in the Georgia Boy kitchen in full sight of the chefs as they create the dishes right before their eyes.
Reservations are released 28 days in advance at noon.
