It was a bit noisy. We started with oysters from the raw bar and they were great. Rockfish was good. Blue catfish sandwich was nice. Crabcake was kind of small. Overall nice, would go back.

There should be a noise level above Energetic. This restaurant was deafening. It was full of hard surfaces reflecting noise from many tables full of people who clearly don't know how to act in public. The four of us at our table couldn't even hear each other talking. Service was painfully slow--almost three hours for brunch? The food was okay but not worth the prices. I much preferred the restaurant's original iteration. I won't return to this one.

They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Food and service were fantastic. Plenty of options for menu for brunch. And lots of great cocktails and mocktails. We had a great experience. Parking is free for the first 2 hours.

Upon being seated we ordered cocktails that we did not get for 40 minutes. We then ordered a bottle of red wine. There were two separate attempts to deliver a bottle of white wine. This was very frustrating definitively impacted our experience. On the bright side the food was delicious and served timely.

I went some friends and we all thought the food and service was amazing. I ordered the sea-cuterie as my appetizer and I was so glad I did...my main course was the chicken bowl...that was amazing as well...everything was delicious. Looking forward to going back to try something new.
