We absolutely enjoyed the four-course brunch at this wonderful restaurant, and I have to say, it truly exceeded all expectations. Our server Freddy, was absolutely outstanding. He was attentive, charming, professional, and incredibly kind and knowledgeable. Freddy recommended the Carolina Gumbo, which was full of flavor, and the Shrimp and Grits, which was nothing short of spectacular. The shrimp were perfectly cooked, and the grits were creamy with just the right amount of kick. Thanks Freddy for making this brunch experience unforgettable 👏

I had the best time here! We did have to wait 40 min with a reservation but it was well worth the wait. The food was so good I ordered the catfish with Macaroni and cheese and greens and also the chicken and waffles and the wild berry lemon drop! The kitchen and the kocktails were on point. The staff and manager were so nice one of the main reasons I had to leave a review. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

With the exception of one Thanksgiving dish, the food was great. When we commented on the dish, the manager removed the cost from the check. Family members ordered other than Thanksgiving items and were very pleased. We ordered several take out dishes and it is true….BEST FRIED CHICKEN EVER!! Enjoy.

Delicious food. Great service. Only complaint was the seating. Even though there were many open tables we were seated right next to another table that was very close. We had to move our tables over a bit to give some place next to the couple next to us. Felt very cramped
