Odd walking to a standing speaker blasting music into the seating area. That did not set up great expectations. Place felt unwelcoming and a bit run down with paint chips along outer walls. Service great, but food not.

The cornbread used to come in a cast iron skillet and now comes in tiny muffins. The chambord margaritas are weak. The ambience is now more Dennys than an evening out. The food was good. Service was slow.

It was fairly quiet on a Sunday evening. We were a little concerned as service seemed very slowly when we first got there but they stayed there was a private party and they were understaffed. After the party left there were no issues. Our server was amazing! Gave great suggestions on food and drinks. The food was amazing, beyond delicious and with the restaurant week deals it was a great value! Will definitely return

The various entres were ok but had too much creama and/or pico. Restaurant needs to invest in higher quality ingredients for their mimosas. A beverage needs to be included in their buffet offering. Excellent seating and volume of music. Very clean. NOTE: We have patronized this establishment for over 20 years.
