Delicious! We had the sea bass and halibut. Both were prepared exceptionally. Portions were large. Amy was great taking care of us and always made sure our water glasses were full. We capped the dinner off with the desert pizza which was also excellent. We will be back.

Last night was my first time going to Born and Bred. The hostess was great and friendly. She mentioned that Happy Hour was for the whole restaurant, not just the bar. Presley, was our waitress and she knew the menu and the drinks, answering any questions we had. The food was excellent along with the staff. I will definitely go back.
