    The food was delicious as always, but their air conditioning was out, so it was quite warm. It would have been nice if they had reached out to let us know, and they didn't even mention it when we arrived or when we were seated. It took an unusually long time for our waiter to come by, and he was slow throughout this meal. With it being so hot, it seemed ridiculous that we had to ask for ice water. We will definitely be back based on many previous visits, but this was a very off night on what should have been a fun night out for dinner and a show.
    LouVino - Mass AveResponded 2 days ago
    Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re truly sorry that your recent visit didn’t live up to the high standards you've come to expect from us. You're absolutely right — we should have communicated the air conditioning issue ahead of time or at least mentioned it upon arrival. We also apologize for the slow service and the oversight with the water, especially given how warm the space was. This certainly doesn’t reflect the experience we aim to provide, and we understand how disappointing that must have been — especially on a night out you were looking forward to. We really appreciate your continued support and kind words about the food, and we’re committed to making sure your next visit is back to the level you know and love. Matt Proctor, GM

    Loved the biscuit board. Can't really say it was jam, it was more like berry syrup, but good. Crab cake egg Benny, just ok. Wish we'd gone with the fried green tomatoes! The loaded tot bites and homemade ranch were delightful! The service was great!
    LouVino - Mass AveResponded 2 days ago
    Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We’re so glad you loved the biscuit board — and thanks for the note about the berry syrup; we’ll definitely keep that in mind. We appreciate your honest feedback on the crab cake eggs Benedict and your suggestion to try the fried green tomatoes next time. Those loaded tot bites and homemade ranch really are crowd-pleasers! It’s great to hear the service was a highlight for you, too. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another delicious meal and maybe some fried green tomatoes on the side! Matt Proctor, GM

    Food was outstanding as was the service. The crispy shrimp and grits was expertly prepared. The cook conflate crusted chicken was moist and tasty.
    LouVino - Mass AveResponded 2 days ago

The crispy shrimp and grits and the cornstarch-crusted chicken are definitely favorites of ours, and we’re glad they hit the mark for you. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another outstanding meal! Matt Proctor, GM

     to be honest, the waitress was the worst part of it. She didn’t know the menu and she overcharged us so we had to get some refund for our wine. But also they were out of several items which is frustrating too. We were there to see the the musical wicked so they should’ve been on their best performances, cause they were getting a lot of business from the theater. Usually, we always go there before the musicals and we probably will continue but if things don’t get better, we will stop be nice to mix up the menu a little more too. We’re used to that at this point

    Thank you for your honest feedback — we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We’re very sorry to hear that this visit didn’t meet your expectations. It’s disappointing to hear that your server was unfamiliar with the menu and that there was an error with your wine charge. That’s absolutely not the level of service we strive to provide, and we’ll be following up with our team to ensure better training and accuracy going forward. We also completely understand the frustration of items being unavailable, especially when dining out is part of a special night like seeing Wicked. We truly hope to welcome you back soon and give you the kind of experience you’ve come to expect from us over the years. Matt Proctor, GM

    We enjoyed a fried cauliflower appetizer and the gnocchi and corn linguini dinners. The cookie dough beignets were the highlight of the night!

    Incredible and cool, food was delicious and reasonably priced, gnocchi was delicious, pork chop was cooked perfectly, and completed with chocolate chip stuffed beignets! I could have eaten an entire meal of beignets.:)

    Thank you so much for the amazing review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the gnocchi and pork chop—and we totally agree, the chocolate chip stuffed beignets are hard to resist! 😊 It means a lot to us that you found everything delicious and reasonably priced. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another great meal (maybe just a full plate of beignets next time!). Matt Proctor, GM

    The drinks were top notch. My wife and I both ordered the steak. Even though the restaurant is not known as a steak house, our steaks were perfect. The meat was incredibly flavorful and so tender. We had the fried chicken tacos as an appetizer and we were not disappointed. The staff was polite, energetic, and very timely. If I had to change anything I would say I enjoyed it when the staff dressed in casual clothing. It sort of made the restaurant seem a little more personal. That would be my only criticism. Absolutely one of our favorite spots downtown.

    Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're honored to be one of your favorite spots downtown, and we're thrilled you and your wife enjoyed the steaks—even better knowing we surprised you with how well they turned out! The fried chicken tacos are a team favorite too, so we’re glad they hit the mark. We truly appreciate your kind words about our staff—they work hard to bring great energy and service to every table. And thank you for the feedback on the attire; we love hearing what helps make the experience feel more personal and comfortable. Looking forward to welcoming you back soon! Matt Proctor, GM
