"As always, this is a great spot for just about any occassion or night of the week. They were short staffed and the food/drinks started to take a little long to come out when we went this time, but I won't hold it against them. The wait staff and management is usually on point! Food and drink specials are awesome too! Love the fact that after all of these years, they haven't gone down hill! Avoid Fridays though...the line is too long to get in but it's a hot spot for sure!"

"Hello, I arranged brunch for Sunday April 1, 2012 to celebrate with a friend who has not spent much servicing restaurants. She enjoyed herself and we both thought that the food was great. The service was great and the atmosphere was friendly."

"Catfish was great. Macaroni and cheese was just ok -- not a lot of flavor. Band was awesome. Service needs improvement -- you constantly have to look for your server since they don't come back and check on you and this was before it got crowded."
