    Great food, exceptional service, and even a sweet Mother's Day card. A+ experience (wish you'd go back to the old biscuit recipe instead of the drop biscuits, though!)

    Seated in time and got a window table for the first time, it was great! Service was excellent and on time. Food tasted great and was served warm. Beverages were as ordered, the Bloody Mary was very good! Atmosphere and noise level were good. The only bad experience was the banana pudding which was not prepared properly. When in Market Square, make sure to visit Tupelo Honey, but make sure you reserve ahead of time

    Always great. It’s hard to stray from their fabulous chicken and waffles but I had the blackened mahi-mahi and it was great!

    Very good food again. We had a large party and they accommodated as best they could. Biggest favorite of the night seemed to be the shrimp and grits. Service was slow

    Great comfort food, great service, a little loud for a business conversation but some might like that.

    The cast iron pimento cheese dip was a great southern treat for a Northerner as well was the asheville hot chicken & ranch melt. I'm looking forward to returning in the future.
