We thoroughly enjoyed our date night at Ray's. The attention to detail of everyone knowing that it was our anniversary, to the card on the table, and the table location itself with a view of the river. This was a great experience for us and we look forward to returning.

As usual, we had a terrific experience at South City Vinings. Brittney was engaging and attentive as always, and recommended a new wine for us to try along with the fish special of the day. Both were great! We are always greeted by the manager and the hostess as if we are special guest.
