    The brussel sprout app and the crab soup were very good. The seafood alfredo had zero flavor, hardly any sauce and the shrimp tasted as if they had been boiled with no seasoning, I should have sent it back. The shrimp and grits were ok, but not even close to a typical shrimp and grits so don't get these unless you love goat cheese. The espresso cheesecake was very good. Our server was very good.

    Overall, it was a great experience. The ambience was really nice, the wait staff was exceptional. Adequate parking in the lot across the street is very convenient. •The appetizer: Crab dip with chips, was extremely salty. However, they did give you the option to eat the dip on a cucumber wedge. •Salmon with Sweet Potato Hash w/ puree’- Salmon was very tasty and cooked to my satisfaction. The Sweet potato hash was cold and lacked flavor. •Someone else has oysters that were nicely done but the quantity was too small. • The Shrimp & Grits were good and nicely prepared. • Kid meal: chicken tender & fries was sufficient. • (2) People were able to create their own entree’: fish & Shrimp. Meal was good but the quantity was too small.

    We have been coming for years and tonight was our first bad experience……. Everything brought to the table failed……. From lack of flavor to cold soup, to congealed pasta, to extremely dry chicken. Hard dry rice, sweet potato fries that were so old…….. we were very nice and simply said we wanted to let you know our issues so they could be avoided in the future……. Our bill was $300 and no consideration for any of our issues, the chef could have cared less, so I am writing my first review ever! Sadly we will never be back after years…..

    Tuna could have had more flavor/spice/sauce. Large group near us made it hard to hear. Soups were very good. Service was excellent.

    Food and service great. 11 of us and everyone loved it. Had a couple of cocktails that had to be returned but it was new on the menu so maybe still perfecting that one. But no problem replacing them.
