   This place seems a little confused about who it wants to be; it has an upscale industrial decor and a modern, open-air feel, but it is also a morning coffee cafe in the same space. It would appear to be a nice place for a nice celebration dinner, but no dress code means your celebration is sitting next to shirts, tshirts, & flipflops. The food was mixed; none of it was horrible, some of it was good. The black eyed peas were good, and the loaded mac with thick cuts if bacon was really good, but the rib eye wasn't seasoned very well and was a but tough, despite it being ordered medium well.

   After reading the recent reviews, I thought I would give the restaurant a try; thinking maybe the cook had a bad day. Upon arrival, the hostess was very nice and we joked about the summer cocktails I would try. The tried the tropical delight and pineapple paradise. Both drinks were good. The salad was really good but my entree had absolutely no flavor. I ordered the country fried steak. The tenderness was appropriate but I couldn’t overcome how bland it was. The sweet potato mash was really good along with the vegetable medley. I would have been fine with ordering the two sides and not the entree. I would go back for drinks but not the food.

   Very dissapointing. It was our second time. The first time was excellent. Menu items were prepared incorrectly, steak was well done instead of medium rare. Wrong pasta was used. They tried to shoehorn a reservation for seven into a booth for five, even though there were numerous empty tables. The waitress had no clue about how the food should have been prepared and was not concerned about correcting it. She had difficulty splitting the check at the end. It is obvious either the chef from our first visit left, or the B team was on staff for this visit. They did remove two of the meals from the check due to poor qualty, and the others were marginal at best.

   A great place to go for a special night out. The food is outstanding. Try the absolutely brilliant Fried Green Tomatoes stuffed with goat cheese! The chef uses herbs and spices and locally sourced products very creatively in all of the menu items. This has become our new favorite spot.

   We were there for a Mother’s Day brunch. The food was only lukewarm. Food was not always quickly replenished. The waitress never brought a requested item to our table. There were not plates located on all the serving tables. $47pp was a lot to pay for what we got.

   My catfish on sweet potato mash with grape - walnut chutney was delicious. Hubby’s ribs with roast Brussels sprouts and fries were delicious, hearty, and a bargain at only $15.90! Service was excellent, and the hotel is very stylish, in a contemporary mode.

   Really nice restaurant. Just wish the breakfast buffet food was warmer. Also we hoped the bar would be available Thursday night after JMU graduation.

   The menu has a variety of tempting options. We have eaten there several times for both lunch and dinner, and we’ve always had great food and a nice experience.

   Hostess was very friendly and we were promptly seated. Party of 5 on a Tuesday evening so not crowded. Waiter was not versed on gluten free choices. Service was very good. Food quality wax excellent. Appetizers were a nice portion size for the money. However, the dinner portions were small for the money. Three in our party had the salmon and it was not worth $27 a plate. Small portions for that amount of money. Overall, a good restaurant but needs improvement.
