    Brought the family for brunch after church. Found this little gem on Yelp and it did not disappoint! The biscuit basket and grit balls should’ve been enough because they were fantastic (biscuits, homemade jam, bite sized biscuits with the greatest texture ever and grit balls w a dipping sauce, I would lift my ball pit ban if it were filled with these babies) but we didnt stop there. We each ordered entrees and all were terrific! Chicken benedict for hubby who almost had a tear in his eye, banana nut french toast was soo good, grillades and smoked gouda grits? Yes maam! The picky kid asked for a grilled cheese w fruit - not like those chincy bowls Of melons kids hate but strawberries, blackberries and blueberries! We had cocktails, they were great. Cool vibe place w covered patio and indoor seating with huge fans (it got a little chilly sitting right under them). Would love to go back and try the regular menu-if it is half as good as everything we tried, we’ll be regulars!

    Date night with my wife and two sweet little girls (5&2). They enjoyed it. Chef was able to accommodate our family’s vegetarian needs. Wife enjoyed the cocktails (happy hour 5-7 pm on a saturday!). Great experience. Server knowledgeable about the menu and interactive. Will def do it again!

    Food was excellent and service was wonderful, enjoyed everything about it and plan on bringing my daughter and son in law for my birthday Sept. 25th. This will be on my list of favorite places to go.

    The menu had totally changed with higher prices. I was disappointed because my favorites were gone and the new menu was good but the sides were not my choices (I am picky) but my friends were pleased with them. 2 of us had the fried chicken breast with glazed carrots which was delicious although the carrots and greens were cold for one of the plates. The 3rd person had the pork chop and she said it was very good. We tried 3 of the desserts, also very good. The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 was the price of the house wine, $12/glass and I personally felt that the prices were too high. Will go again, just not as often.

    I really want Forklift to succeed. But it still has a ways to go in my opinion. Service was friendly but extremely slow. I got the smoked chicken pimento mac and cheese. It was good, but not super flavorful. I wasn’t sure what the cut of chicken was. Maybe a boneless thigh? The signature salad was good and I’d order it again. My companion got the pork chop and enjoyed it. I was a little put off by the cabbage with it. He got the wedge salad and breadsticks and enjoyed them both. I was disappointed there’s no longer a burger to default to if you are not loving the menu items. (Their fries were so good!) Bottom line, for the prices, Forklift isn’t quite up to the level they aspire to. We could have eaten at Snackbar or City Grocery in Oxford for the same money. And those places are both 4 plus stars consistently.

    Forklift has redeemed itself!! The Sunday brunch is fantastic and Shelby does a great job taking care of you! McCoys bartending is the best in town!

    I had a ribeye. The steak was so tender you could almost use a fork to cut it. The bacon cornbread is outstanding. One of my favorite places to eat. Would advise making reservations.
