This was a surprise, we were a little bummed that the menu changed the day before our reservation, so we came expecting one thing and got another. However, the food was amazing. We had the regular biscuits, the trio of biscuits, and the best corn bread as appetizers, all fantastic. Coast to coast salad... Astounding. Then the main course, we got the roasted chicken and the tomahawk pork chop. The chicken was juicy and cooked perfectly. Amazing. The tomahawk pork chop was mind blowing. We will be back.

This is one of the cutest places we have been in a while. The atmospheres is great and the scenery outside is gorgeous. Now I’m a cheap person in general but in a world where I’m paying $20 for a Cesar Salad, it really should come with chicken. The sauce was amazing. The staff were so polite and welcoming. Now I did not find the chairs that comfortable but the padded booth was ok. If you are a whiskey drinker you must go and try their selection of over 200 whiskeys. But like I said I’m cheap, I don’t think that chicken sandwhich was worth $30 if I’m only getting a tiny handful of fries.

Parking available u can validate your ticket in the restaurant. Cozy hip modern interior. Friendly staff. Great for dates. Portions are small but very yummy Cornbread is famous. Drinks are amazing. Try the tuna and blood orange

Great atmosphere, delicious food and drinks, great service and friendly staff. I've come alone for a drink, and also once to support one of the live acts they have (Thursday nights i believe?). It's a great spot and i wish I had more money or more friends to try some of the pricier dishes (85% of them)
