    Excellent food and choices during the holiday. We loved every option we chose and it paired well with the side. The service was amazing, from those seating us to our waiter. Restaurant was clean and well cared for. I also loved that our reservation was seated on time, and I appreciated that they are mindful of that. We now have this as our yearly holiday dinner and can’t wait to come back next year

    Our party of six were all pleasantly surprised as this was our first visit. Two locals in this party and the rest outlanders. We were greeted warmly and our waiter was well-informed about the menu and preparation of the food. Our starters were all over the top delicious and chef-inspired. The BLT was by far the favorite but bacon board was also a hit. We all ordered either the ribs or their famous lemon-dusted fried chicken. Everyone enjoyed their dinner immensely and boxes were brought to take an abundance of this delicious fare home for leftovers! It will not be wasted! I can not close without commenting on the ambience. It was warm, inviting and cleverly decorated. We will return!

    We ordered appetizers Jalapeno Poppers and Whipped Goat with honey drizzle, almonds and cranberries with Pita slices, both were excellent!! The main course was individual pizzas Chicken Bacon Ranch, Buffalo Chicken and The Works, and a Large Greek Salad with grilled chicken. All were super delicious. Only negative was the chicken on the Greek Salad was dry and a little over cooked. Our waitress Jeanine was outstanding she served us with a smile and great efficient service! Ask for her when you can!!
