Our second time eating at Doe's and like the first time, did not disappoint! Food is excellent. We each had the filet mignon. A house salad comes with it, but you can upgrade for a different salad. The house salad was just fine with us. The biscuits served with the dinner are to die for! The are really less like biscuits and more like small, fluffy beignets without the sugar. Carly at the bar is very pleasant and makes great cocktails. We will definitely be back again!
