Wow! This was the best meal I’ve had out in a very long time. Our server gave us great advice and the deliciousness of the deviled eggs w a fried oyster and bechamel(?) on top sounded strange but tasted AMAZING! Every bite was truly spectacular. The four of us raved about the food and service. My back was to the dining room so little comment on the ambiance. Happy to spend the money here - they earned it. Will go back and recommend it endlessly. Yum!
