    There were three of us at the table each with completely different options from a salad to a grilled chicken sandwich to a charcuterie board. Each of us thought our food was amazing! Our server's name was Mikayla and she was wonderful. We did sit outside, so there was a lot of traffic noise but it did feel good to be outside on a cool evening.

    Food came out slow and super super salty. It is a better experience during a week day when empty.

    I have an onion intolerance, which limits my dining options. The chef at this restaurant was incredibly flexible. After a brief discussion with our server, the chef was able to rework my entree choice, allowing me to enjoy their redfish. This level of accommodation was a refreshing change from the usual steak option I'm often limited to. The bread pudding dessert was delicious and was enough for our table of four. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

    All the food was great (especially the fried chicken) but I was especially impressed with the kid's meal. It's great to see a real variety and some thought for the side dishes on a kid's meal.

    The old cliché “momma’s home cooking “, well this is Down Home Southern Cooking, Grandma’s House, chicken fried steak ( don’t need a knife just a fork), fried catfish & shrimp with shut dogs ( hush puppies)for those not from the south, just like Grandma used to make. Wow and the manger made you feel as if you were the most welcome and important person in the Restaurant, the staff friendly, caring and accommodating.👍👍👍👍👍
