We had an amazing dinning experience. Chloe, our server, exceeded all expectations, her recommendations were spot on and she provided us with great service. I had an Old Fashioned which is the best I have had. We ate the jumbo shrimp cocktail and beet salad to start and they were delicious. As a main course our group had the stuffed mountain trout, braised short rib and shrimp and grits, no leftovers were available! We shared the bomba for dessert, it took a bit because it was frozen hard, but it was perfect when they brought it to the table.

Staff was great. Truly great. The rooms are a little loud when multiple tables are set. The outside area looked very nice. The appetizers and salads were extremely good. We ordered the shrimp and grits and the burger with fries. The shrimp and grits were OK at best. We only ate half of the burgers. The fries were on point.
