They were VERY confused how to seat our party of 4 - and we had a reservation. We stood there awkwardly for 10 min as two hosts were trying to figure out seating. It was so weird with no communication

10 of us for 5:30. Sat right down. Service was not the best- had to wait a bit. Had to ask for small plates for appetizers we ordered. One person ordered soup and it did not have a spoon and by the time we got to ask for one it was cold. Food was good. It seemed like there was not enough staff for a busy Saturday night and the ones that were there seemed stressed and offering apologies for this and that. Would not rush back but would try it again at some point.

Very good meal! Very friendly staff! Food was tasty... recommend the shrimp and grits! Fried green tomatoes were also a great choice! The Mud pie was excellent- The addition of Coffee flavor made it one of the best desserts we've had in a long time! 1 issue... the Surf and Turf came with pickled jalapenos. These were mixed in with the creamed spinach making it too hot to eat! Would have liked to see the waiter a little more too! Nice person (Devon) but was sometimes a little long between stops. Definitely will be back!

Fun place to enjoy a good meal and drink before the PAC. Of course, the chicken was “on another level!” So good! Parking was easy, and everything about it was excellent. Give it a try!

We came for the valentine's special for 2. For $55, it was an excellent value. We went with the pimento queso for an appetizer, it was way better than I expected. We both got the honey dusted fried chicken and oh my gosh, was it good! It was seasoned perfectly, super crunchy outside and so juicy and flavorful inside. We finished up with the pecan pie, which I normally find too sweet, but this was PERFECT! I feel like I tasted a hint of bourbon in the pie and loved it.
