    We ate on the patio for the early dining special. A great deal, with lots of choices. House wine was decent. Service was good, didn't feel rushed. I had shrimp and grits and the shrimp were large and very good, grits weren't as tasty, but fine. We split a very good wedge salad. The only disappointment was the dessert. The creme brulee was too thick and didn't have much of a caramelized sugar crust. Putting powdered sugar on top only made it worse. I'd go back.

    We waited 40 minutes to get a drink, 11/2 hours for our food and they ran out of bread. The vegetables were ice cold! A very bad experience!

    We’ve eaten here a dozen times and always had an outstanding experience. Last night that wasn’t the case. The hostess who seated us was rude. The server we had was nice but inexperienced. The menu has been pared back. We asked for bread. Waited 30 minutes for it. Then told they were out of bread. We watched several other tables get served bread. Then magically our waitress came over with bread at the same time our dinner finally arrived. Slow service. Not what it used to be.

    Filets were just ok. Smothered in Demi glacé which made it more like a pot roast than a nice charred steak. Was disappointed with this meal.

    We went to Southforkto have their early dining special only to find out that they were not offering it. They did not seem to know the hours of their special. The food was fine and the waitress was good. Overall ok but nothing that sets it apart from many other restaurants. Their early dining special is the real draw here but if not offered no rush to go again.

    We arrived at 5:30 PM and we’re expecting to get the early dining special. The waitress said oh you only get what menu is placed in front of you. We asked why isn’t there the early dining special and she said oh I’m not sure you’ll have to ask them as they change it. Usually when a restaurant has early dining it is at a specific time and doesn’t change. I guess that is why the restaurant wasn’t full at that time.
