    Great food and service! Hush puppies are so yummy! Avo toast, burrata toast, cheeseboard, gulf shrimp, ahi poke - all stellar! Drinks were good too - I had the special that day with hibiscus - have forgotten the name. Our server was knowledgeable and steered me away from sweet drinks which I didn’t want..

    Greeted by the host who remembered us from last week! Delicious brunch - French toast and bacon and loaded omelette (large enough to feed three people). The Expresso Martini was to die for! We’ll continue to return to try more brunch dishes!

    Came here for Christmas Eve prix fixe menu and it was very lovely. There was live music, great ambience, and delicious food! I dined with my dad and we had great service the entire night, despite hearing that the restaurant was understaffed for the holidays. Great place to spend for the holiday :)

    My first visit to The Heid was a very pleasant one - it has a fine taste in decor and the whole Inn is in a lush green serene creek side setting. The appetizers/small bites were delicious and good to share with 2-4 people. We had Hummus, flatbread and charcuterie dishes. I and my friends were there during Happy Hour between 5 and 7pm when some beer and a couple of cocktail drinks were a few dollars off. I would go back and try their breakfast next time.
