    Server was friendly but not very attentive. Bar service was over 30 min for a round of simple drinks. Didn’t have time for a second round! Food was ok…it’s a hotel restaurant. 🤷‍♀️ Location is awesome for any event at FedEx Forum but the pacing needs to improve. We had reservations at 6:15 for a 7:30 concert…we left the restaurant at 7:45…no appetizers or dessert.

    Service was very slow, not enough waiting staff, food was hot, but just o.k. This was down dinning week and they didn’t have the fried green tomatoes that was advertised but they did honor it after speaking with management, 2 out of the 4 dinners arrived and the other 2 had to wait 20 minutes for the fries to be ready and 1 person did not get their dessert and we had to call the waitress over to get it. Do NOT order the brisket sliders, both folks did not like them. Not a good experience at all and we were all disappointed.

    Birthday dinner. The restaurant is empty for a reason. Do not go there. The ladies working this place is terrible. Their service was one of the worst I seen.

    We stopped by Courtside to grab a bit before the concert. First off no host to greet us. We had to ask can we sit ourselves. Our waitress was also the bartender, so needless to say she was very busy (not her fault). We ordered a meat and cheese tray..... 40 MINS for sausage, cheese cubes, pepperoncini peppers and ritz crackers. Right when we were about to cancel they brought it out. Then the manager was trying to give us a long story about how it took 40 mins for an appetizer. No excuses sorry not sorry. I expected more... it a hard no for me.. wont be returning.

    Two of us dined after a basketball game at FedExForum. The restaurant was not busy at 8:30 pm, and our server, Rae, promptly took our drink orders. I had a perfectly made Tito's and tonic. My cousin has a pot of Earl Grey tea. We shared the Ballers Brisket Sliders and the 901 Potato Skins. Both were very good. The sliders were sweet and smokey, served with BBQ sauce and fried onion rings on soft buns and a side of dill pickles, the French fries had a Cajun spice. The potato skins had a nice layer of potato with bacon, cheddar cheese, and scallions, served on a bed of lettuce with sour cream. We also ordered the Cajun Shrimp Pasta to-go for my cousin's son, who reported it was delicious! We look forward to returning many times during the basketball season. Our server, Rae, was attentive and knowledgeable. We will definitely ask for her on our next visit!

    The service was very slow, the waitress was the best part of the evening. the restaurant was not very crowded, menu is limited and the food arrived cold. The bill showed an alcohol tax in addition to extremely expensive drinks. We had a party of 6 and they add a 23% tip automatically. Might be a good place for sandwiches but not for nice dinner before a concert.
