Known for its elevated southern fare and perfect downtown locale, Soco Thornton Park had us jumping for joy when it extended its very popular Sunday brunch to Saturday. Guests can enjoy everything from homemade pop tarts and strawberry stuffed French toast to lobster benny and southern fried chicken and waffles. Additionally, you can add bottomless mimosas for only $15 (with the purchase of an entree).
Executive Chef/Partner Greg Richie recently invited us to check out his new Saturday brunch and we happily obliged.
FOOD
Begin with the house cold brew coffee, which comes with homemade almond cream (absolutely delicious). New flavors, including butter pecan, are on the horizon.

The Everything “Bagel” Biscuit that accompanies the Sorghum Cured Salmon is a showstopper. Don't miss it.
The Lobster Eggs Benedict, which is served atop a biscuit, was very hearty and didn't skimp on the lobster one bit.
