“This was a fabulous find. Being the Southern inspired menu, we opted for the fried green tomato appetizer, panko breaded deviled eggs were an unexpected and unusual offering that was phenomenally delicious. We also enjoyed their cajun pasta to round out the meal. We had courteous service from staff that were friendly, responsive and informative and efficient and fun. Very reasonable priced for quality and quantity of food. Highly recommend.“

“First time visit after hearing about this place for some time. I’d consider it a good sign that the waiting area was full and there were plenty of prepared orders waiting to be picked up. The young lady that greeted us was extremely patient as we became overwhelmed by the amazing menu and helped us by making popular menu suggestions. Good choices were made. The pork chop was amazing and the fried okra and carrot soufflé complimented it well. The chopped steak was made even better by the mashed potato’s and green beens. A selection of extra sides rounded out the meal and left us having to save our deserts, sweet potato pie & peach cobbler, until tomorrow. Mr B we will return, there is so much more of the menu to explore. Tell your daughter thanks for filling our wait with pleasant conversation.“
