    First time here. We came in for brunch and we loved what we had. We had the she crab soup….delicious! We also had the crab Benedict and Buttermilk chicken. It was all really good! The only reason we left before having one more cup of the great coffee was the girl three tables down popping her gum. Not the restaurants fault, but we almost went over to her and asked her if she was enjoying her gum. Very nice place and they still have less than classy people coming in.

    Overall, we felt like welcomed and appreciated patrons, and we will most certainly be back. Food was great, most had hanger steak. Drinks were excellent. The table size was perfect for our group. Its location at the door made for a noisier, colder and less private dinner, and the use of stools for two of our party was less comfortable for them. Our server, Jenna was great, and she made up for the inconvenience with her enjoyable personality, complimentary bruschetta, and flexibility on appetizer portions.
