    Our waiter front end service was amazing! Once seated our waiter Michael was entertaining, so funny. It was my SIL 36 Anniversary and he made it so special. The food was as always, great. I don’t care what we get, but I always need Todd’s French fries. A great evening. Thank you for ensuring it was!

    The She Crab soup was the best I have ever had. Usually chefs get the cream sauce to thick or to much sherry. This was the perfect blend. Had the Shrimp and grits with jambalaya. It was excellent. My husband had the fried shrimp and got a cup of she crab soup as well.

    I enjoyed a beautiful evening with friends tonight. The shrimp and crab cake appetizers were amazing!! I've had the NY Strip several times here and it's always been a 10/10; however on tonight something was off with my steak. I had to ask for salt and that's a first. No worries though... I brought the other half home and cooked it more in garlic butter on top of the stove. Everything else was great. Our waitress was absolutely amazing! Of course I will be back soon!!
