    We have dined here numerous times and we love it. Staff is always friendly. The drinks are always on point and steaks are always cooked perfectly. I order the Ribeye. It was huge! Accompanied by asparagus, homemade mashed potatoes, and a delicious salad. My wife order the Butternut Squash Ravioli and Salmon. Needless to say, it did not disappoint. And I highly recommend the Cucumber Cooler!

    Seven family members decided to dine together on the day after Thanksgiving. Making a reservation was easy. Our server was very friendly and very helpful. We all enjoyed the entrees we chose.

    The restaurant was not busy and I had made reservations. We were seated quickly and waited a few minutes for our server. He was very pleasant and attentive. We ordered beverages and they were brought out in a timely manner. The cowboy filet was seasoned perfectly and at a nice warm temperature. My husband ordered the ribeye steak with mushroom topping. The steak was warm but the mushrooms were not. He ate the steak but left the cold mushrooms. The salad was served on a chilled plate and for interest, the carrots were curled. I think it added a nice aesthetic touch. Our server placed rolls on the table. The butter was perfectly chilled but the rolls were not hot. In all, it was a nice evening and meal. Adequate but not great yet. We come to dinner an average of once a week because of the location in Kissing Tree is convenient.

    We went on filet mignon night and the food was delicious! I don’t think I’ve ever tasted yummier asparagus! Service was great, David the chef, came to talk to us at our table which was very nice. We Always have a good experience there.

    The four of us had the weekly dinner special which was beautiful Ribeye steaks with frites. Well marbled and seasoned beef. Perfectly medium rare. Two of us subbed frites for grilled asparagus. Our server Sky was there every time we needed something and she even anticipated what we needed before we asked. We closed the place down and will be back soon for a seafood special.

    The food was amazing! We had the Bang Bang Shrimp for an appetizer and it was delicious. We had the peppercorn crusted fillet and it was out of this world! Chef David is a masterful chef.

    The event was a "home cooking" buffet......astonishingly, they ran out of several entrees~~Specifically, the mashed potatoes, fried okra and fried catfish. Our reservation was for 6pm and the event ran until 8pm. When we approached the manager requesting a replacement pan of mashed potatoes, we were told they "were out of mashed potatoes". Same with the other entrees I mentioned. Our group found it bizarre that a dinner staple such as mashed potatoes could have run out when there were ample pork chops, fried chicken & gravy available..... We are residents of Kissing Tree, and the consensus was that we'd return for a sandwich or burger after golf, but we're unlikely to return for dinner as this wasn't the first time we'd left after a disappointing experience.
