    Kinsey our server was excellent , friendly and efficient. We ordered a burger, steak tip sandwich, tallow fingerlings . They were all excellent however the Caymus wine by the glass was insipid. There you have it, the burger was one of the best in AVL, we are locals.

    This is one of our go to places We went for Easter We’ve always enjoyed it, but we have to say in all honesty. The food was off. The duck was good but chewy The 10 ounce strips seemed small The kicker was the sides The potatoes were way over salted And what they served as the carrot side was embarrassing - it looked like shoestrings Not tasty-surprised they would send that out of the kitchen The Tres Leche dessert had the consistency of cornbread and was dry as a bone Will we be back? Of course we will. Maybe just an off night

    Steak was rainbow cooked meaning well done on one end and rare on the other. The old fashion was watery with clearly lowest quality bourbon. The waiter also told us all the cocktails are premixed. Really?
