    Hearsay at Levy Park delivers; excellent food, beautiful atmosphere, superb service (Norman), and a gorgeous park setting. This shouldn’t been a “hidden gem”. It has all of the parts necessary to be fantastic. Wishing them success on building a great following.

    Always stellar. The server treated us with two pieces lump crab roll since our favorite foie gras is —understandably—no longer available.

    Three of us met for lunch there today and had a perfect experience. I got the Yardbird, 1/4 fried chicken (I chose white meat) and it was some of the best fried chicken I have had in recent memory. It came with collard greens and mashed potatoes, both of which were great, although the potatoes were a bit dry. A friend got chicken and waffle with same fried chicken on a good looking waffle. The other got the bacon-cheeseburger with ground and braised beef. It looked totally awesome with hand cut fries. All the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Our server was attentive and checked on us a couple of times without being intrusive. I would strongly recommend this restauarant!
