A progressive perspective of classic Southern favorites.

While many know “Succotash” when they see it, the dish has been interpreted, modified and passed from generation to generation for centuries. While Succotash between families will share similarities, each family’s recipe is deeply personal and reminiscent of those special suppers that brings kin together.

Our third time dining there and was a good experience, a little slow on service but I’m sure due to holiday staffing, but the available staff really worked together. The deviled eggs were delicious and I enjoyed the shrimp & grits with a fried egg on top.
