    Is terribly sad, but this restaurant has no hope of making it. A person in our group ordered their buttered rum Manhattan. They seem to not have any of the ingredients necessary. When he changed it to just bourbon we waited forever to get it. Literally every table around us was complaining to their server about how the food. A person in our group ordered the steak frites. The steak was thin and very fatty and not served with the pepper coating. It was served with some sort of barbecue sauce. The mac & cheese was not edible. It was not cheese. It was some sort of horrible gravy. The salmon was fair, slightly overdone but OK served on very Watery and unflavorful mashed potatoes. A huge disappointment all around. We were never asked if we would like a second drink while we were waiting. The overhead lights were on full bright Considering the serving and culinary issues it is way overpriced and would absolutely never recommend anyone go here.

    Our waitress was very personable and accommodating. The fried chicken had a crispy coating and tender. The collard greens had good flavor, but very spicy. The penne with cheese sauce needed more seasoning. Will definitely return to try a different entree.

    We all really enjoyed our meal tonight. One note is that the ceilings are high and there were a bunch of kids in the lobby making a lot of noise. Otherwise food was great, service was great, bar was slow.

    Came from out of town, picked based on reviews, and was for a birthday dinner. Mostly disappointing. Price points not too bad, but meal just so-so, and the service was oh so slow.......

    Online, the table Bloody Mary was touted for brunch. The server said they were out of mix. Several other menu items were out. The ambience was weirdly deserted for Sunday brunch time. We just left, so disappointed.

    Des the server was particularly nice and efficient. Food was inventive and delicious. Noise level was horrific when a gaggle of women were there for cocktail hour prior to their dinner. Once they were seated in another room it became very nice.

    Excellent Old Fashioned’s at the bar followed by a great meal consisting of the pimento cheese appetizer, the salmon entree, and the fried chicken entree. We did not have room for dessert.

    We started with one of the best Bloody Mary's ever! Also had the bourbon coffee, which was very tasty. Saira was a very nice server and attentive. Do not understand why the maintenance staff decided to run the sweeper next to our table during breakfast, but it did not take away from a very pleasant experience.
