This Is It! Southern Kitchen & Bar-B-Q has called metropolitan Atlanta (GA) home since 1983, serving southern food, BBQ, seafood, and soul food into our own blend of renowned cuisine. We pride ourselves in offering our customers home-style cooking that's made-to-order with only the freshest ingredients. Our BBQ is hickory smoked, our seafood is cooked to order, our veggies are cooked fresh, and our desserts are homemade.

King Of Tips Product Expansion

Shelley "Butch" Anthony, III, founder, President & CEO of This Is It! Southern Kitchen & Bar-B-Q gives full credit to God for the company's success and states, "Look what God has done! For over 42 years, we have successfully served the Atlanta market, and we want to thank God and all of our customers for this wonderful achievement." Anthony also links the expansion to his family legacy as it is connected to something rather profound that his mother shared with him. "When I was a young boy, my mother told me I was born to be a king. At that time, I really didn't understand what she meant. Now I know and it is truly a dream come true," states Anthony.
