    Had a great time with friends that were visiting for the first time. They loved it, and especially the Lamb Chops. My wife doesn’t eat meat, but she loves the gravy on the Shrimp and Grits. So, next time she wants shrimp gravy on her grits. We love visiting this place. The atmosphere is great, and the spot is just the right size. Shay was amazing, I think she is the only person that has waited on us. “I am Shay with an S.”

    This was my first time and it definitely will not be my last. It was so amazing that I purchased my New Year's Eve ticket before I left. The food was AMAZING, I had the braised ribs and grits, which melted in my mouth and I took the crab cakes home. The service and the saxophonist was top tier. I also met the owner she was so approachable and so nice. This is absolutely my new space of peace. Absolutely great place. If you haven't been make it your business to visit, u will thank me later!!! See you soon
