    I enjoyed a lovely dinner with my son. I just love the decor and ambience. Our food was perfect. The fried green tomatoes are a MUST! The Thai chili salmon was delightful. My son had the Cajun pasta and devoured it. What a gem this restaurant is!

    Great dinner. The steak and asparagus was delicious. It was prepared perfectly. My wife wanted to come for the scallops which is her favorite entree. We had a very nice dinner for our 36th anniversary. Thanks.

    Service was slow at 1pm on a Saturday even though the restaurant was half full. Eggs Benedict were amazing, so was bread pudding and the tomato soup is the BOMB. Maybe they were short staffed-will be back!
