    First time diners at The DownPour and it was amazing! Both my husband and I split a salad and then had the shrimp and crab scampi which was phenomenal! We finished it off with red velvet cake and creme brulee! The scampi is our new favorite meal when dining out. We will definitely be back!

    It was our first time dining at The Down Pour. We had an excellent waitress who was able to answer all of our questions. The ambiance was perfect for a casual Saturday night. The food that was chose was promptly delivered, delicious and a very good value. We were disappointed that there was no ‘iced tea,’ just sweet tea and no bread service (even if we were willing to buy it). We also would have liked to have seen prices on the specials. We will be back for sure.

    Great service. Food needs better presentation. Food was too much sauce. Drinks need to improve overall. Server was awesome. Most likely won’t return. This place is more for clout.
