    Waited forever to get a server. Our food was given to another table and had to be remade. It was infuriating! Your customers deserve better. My family and I deserve better. I won’t return.

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I followed up with our management team and want to sincerely apologize for the experience you and your family had. Our valued guests deserve nothing less than exceptional service, and I completely agree that we fell short in this instance. That’s why we didn’t hesitate to cover your entire bill as a gesture of goodwill and acknowledgment of the error. Your patronage means a great deal to us, and I would truly appreciate any additional feedback on how we could have made things right. Zoe Gilreath General Manager

    We had a birthday dinner and the staff was very sweet. Chole was training Brynn, a new server, and they both did a great job and were very attentive to us. She did an excellent job in explaining the service to Brynn. They were both very friendly and my mother in law felt very special on her 91st Birthday.

    We spent $150 on cold food that was lack luster to say the least. Drinks were full of ice and short on the booze. We ordered the calamari which is the one thing that came out hot and tasted good. It was downhill from there. The blackened shrimp has no seasoning. Idk where the “blackened” went. The scallops were undercooked. The salad was wilted. The broccolini was cold and wilted. The mash potatoes had a strange flavor and the risotto tasted like liquid bacon smoke. We did enjoy the free corn bread. This was the second and last time we will be eating here.

    Appetizers were good but entrees were poor. Pork chop was ordered pink but was overcooked to well done plus. Trout was also overcooked and no longer flakey. Do not plan to return.
