The food was very delicious. We had the blackened redfish with the braised short-ribs the first night. The two shrimp on top of the redfish were very large and the braised short ribs were very tender. The second night we had the shrimp and grits and the double grilled pork chops. Again the food was very delicious. The seating was in the bar area and was rather noisy but we still enjoyed a great dinner.
