    We always have a great time at The Republic Grille. The food and services are always wonderful. If you get the chance, ask for Leo as your server.

    Our food and service is always great. This evening the noise was a bit loud. We couldn’t hear the band as well.

    Food was good as always. The black-eyed peas were incredibly good. Got the chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans, with the additional side of peas. Service was a little slow and a minor issue with our reservation request for a booth, but we enjoyed lunch.

    Treated my parents on Saturday afternoon, restaurant was quite, there was maybe 4 other tables with people at them. Bella was our server, she did well over all. We were disappointed in some of the dishes, my mom ordered the club sandwich, the bacon was burned and even when the server handed my mom her sandwich she said something along the lines of the bacon being "extra crispy", but still served my mom her plate. My husband ordered the gumbo and the taste was there, but was a little runny. At some point the manager was checking in, we did ask her for another plate of bacon, the next set of bacon was also very well done, just slightly less burned. I'm disappointed to say either they have a cheap cut of bacon or it was the cook. Needless to say I was not impressed, for the price we most likely will not return.

    We ordered the duck and we have had it before and it has been excellent but both the waiter we had and the duck were very underwhelming. The duck was dry and did not have much of a taste.
