    Kimberlee was fantastic! Perfect blend of insight on the menu and not being too much of an interruption at our table. Roasted oysters, crab cakes, pork tomahawk with green beans and mashed potatoes were outstanding. Mac n cheese was dry but the bourbon butter cake more than made up for it!

    Date night with my birthday man ❤️🥂 ❤️ Celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday in this intimate, a bit mysterious, and effortlessly cool restaurant. With only six lucky parties dining, the evening was a culinary mouthwatering journey from stunning appetizers to Scandinavian-inspired dishes that were pure art (even the fresh bread rolls were heavenly!). A relaxed, refined vibe with outstanding service & background music made it feel so special yet so comfortable. Great night! #ebbe #bestbeurreblancsauce
