    Mother’s Day brunch for my mom- we were served last night’s pork belly leftovers, very stale. She ordered French toast and I ordered PB&J French toast. Hers had blueberry sauce on it. Mine only had peanut butter and strawberry slices. It seemed the cook confused the dishes and neither were correct.

    Sugarbacon - Watters CreekResponded on May 27, 2023Hello Tammy, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We apologize for your bad experience. It sounds as if there may have been a mix up on our kitchen's end. We value your feedback, and we will work to improve and make sure we do not have more mistakes like this in the future. We hope that you will come back and give us another try and let us earn a 5-star review. Have a wonderful day!

    Ordered the avocado toast meal was luke-warm. Toast was soggy and included a peanut butter like spread of avocado. That was topped with over easy egg and sprinkled with what I think was hard chewy pork belly bits. The avocado had a acidic lemon flavor most likely to prevent blackening of the spread. I did not like the meal. My wife had a breakfast burrito with breakfast potatoes. Her meat was warm and she enjoyed it.

    We had 6:30 reservations and were seated promptly. The server took our drink order and we ordered our apps. 20 minutes later, he came back pressing us to order the main. I pointed out I didn’t even have my drink yet but he said the kitchen gets backed up so we went ahead and ordered the main. App came - fried green tomatoes. They were great. My drink came. Then we waited and waited for the main-filet. The waiter stopped by and volunteered that there was some snafu in the kitchen. Our steaks came. He asked that we cut into it to make it was properly prepared. They were both rare not medium rare but we said we’d eat rather than wait. He never came back or was within sight when we looked for him to tell him both of our steaks and all our sides were ice cold when we got them. He said he was sorry. We ordered a dessert which he said he wouldn’t charge us for. Overall, the food was delicious (I just had my leftover filet for lunch). They seem to have communication issues or something. Or maybe they are just understaffed. Probably won’t go back.

Chris, our server, was extremely attentive and very good at his job. We plan to try again for a dinner date now, and I look forward to it.

    The service was just ok. We waited almost 10 minutes for someone to even come take a drink order. The crab cake was ok. My husband’s steak was WAY undercooked. The charcuterie board included weirdly sliced cooked sausage and ricotta cheese. Very odd. We won’t go back.

    Sugarbacon - Watters CreekResponded on March 8, 2023Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are sorry that you had a less than perfect experience. This is definitely not our standard of service and we appreciate the feedback. We will use this to help teach our staff and as an opportunity to improve. Our charcuterie board currently features grilled andouille sausage, soppressata, brie, and fresh house-made ricotta cheese. We are sorry if this missed the mark for you and truly hope you will come back and give us another try.

    Medium-well turn out to be over well done. Brussels sprouts are pretty much crispy burn. Although Brussels sprouts were removed from the bill, overall experience in this restaurant was not enjoyable. didn’t much enjoy dinner.

We are truly sorry that you had anything less than a perfect experience on your recent visit with us. We pride ourselves on a perfect cook every time and outstanding steaks. Our Brussels sprouts are flash fried and should be tasty and crispy - not burned. This is most certainly not the way we usually do things, and we hope that you will give us another chance to make it right. Have a wonderful day.

    First, this place is very small. We had a reservation but since we had 6 instead of 5 they couldn’t seat us, so we had to get on the wait list. We waited 30 min, then sat at a nice table. We ordered an appetizer that never came, then our salads came out at the same time as our meal. I would have liked to enjoy my salad before my meal. The food was good.

    Sugarbacon - Watters CreekResponded on February 11, 2023Hello Julie, thank you for taking time to leave us a review. We appreciate you being patient with us while we worked to accommodate your reservation change. With the high volume for Valentines Day weekend, we are taking every measure possible to try and make our guest's experience a great one. We are sorry about your appetizer mix up, as well as the courses not being coursed properly. This is not our standard and we will make adjustments to not allow this again. We hope to see you again soon!

    We had breakfast to celebrate my sons 21st birthday. Our waitress was Zoey and she gave us excellent service. She described different items on the food and drink menu. She was very attentive to our table. She was just a very nice person. Sometimes it’s hard to get excellent service when you go out to restaurants. If you go check out this restaurant you must ask for Zoey!

    My wife and I tried Sugarbacon for date night. The restaurant was busy, good sign! We are holding fast to dry January, what is wrong with us! Our waiter, TJ came by, we ordered our drinks along with apps of deviled eggs and the Sugarbacon. Both were very good and set the tone for dinner. Service was excellent and TJ checked in on us regularly. We ordered the Tacos and the shrimp & grits. Dinner arrived in a timely manner. The only critique is the dinner was bland compared to the apps. Well, my wife had heat from the Serrano peppers but not a lot of flavor. My shrimp and grits needed some additional help. Herbs, acid and salt would make this dish. The apps really made the dinner instead of the entrees. The ambiance of the restaurant would lend itself more to a lunch/dinner of friends where you can be loud and animated in your meal discussions. Not ideal for more intimate occasions. Overall, the service was excellent, the food was inconsistent and the ambiance is well suited for a night outs with friends. I wish I could comment on the drinks but maybe next time.

    Sugarbacon - Watters CreekResponded on February 6, 2023Hello Steve, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

Our cocktails are definitely a must try! We hope to see you again soon so that we can provide you with a 5-star experience!

    Most of our food was excellent, but to receive undercooked potatoes was a disappointment. I would say duck was just on the "too done" side, but the bone in pork chop and the short ribs was terrific. We'll be going back.
