    The service was excellent. The waiter was very sensitive to the rhythm of our evening. He never rushed us through any of the courses. The food was excellent, well prepared, and the flavors were very balanced.

    we went before a concert at Nat's Park. We enjoyed cocktails before and during the meal. The spicy lemonade w/ tequila was good as was my companions sweet bourbon peach tea. We share appetizers of fried green tomatoes and the corn fritters. They were the most mediocre of our meal there. She got the pulled pork and shared a taste. We both gave it 2 thumbs up! I got the catfish and grits. Also delicious. Our appetizers came out fast but our entrees took their time. Not really a problem when you're still enjoying a cocktail. Our server Ashley was delightful and onto of it in spite of the pre-concert rush they were slammed with. I'll return to try the brisket or fried chicken.

    Our server was excellent the food came.out fast except for my friend's daughter's children's burger. I ordered the chicken and waffles which were decent. However, the chicken was a little touch like it was pre-cooked and then reheated to be served.

    Best biscuits we've ever had! The tea-brined chicken was excellent, but had a (BBQ?) sauce on it that overpowered any tea flavor - still quite good, though. Very generous shrimp and grits, with quite a bit of heat. Even the southern greens were very good, which is not always the case in a southern cuisine restaurant.
