    The food was terrific. We arrived for our reservation early and enjoyed some HH drinks and apps at the bar. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the drinks and the menu. We ended up having dinner at the bar too and taking the recommendations of the bar staff. I would certainly return and recommend this restaurant to others.

    We loved our dinner at Amen! We arrived early for our reservation and had oysters, clams, and drinks at the bar before our dinner. So good! We had the surf and turf special and Lowcountry Bouillabaisse - both were delicious.

    We absolutely love dinning at the Oak Steakhouse! The staff are very friendly and attentive from setting us at a fabulous table for our date night. Drinks came quickly and they make a perfect French Martini! The oysters were great. We also ordered yummy cornbread with a taste of jalapeño. I ordered the 8 oz filet mignon with whipped potatoes and both were outstanding. We definitely will dine again! Thank-you!
