   Food was very flavorful, service was excellent. Food took a bit long to come out considering it was a Wednesday night and didn't seem that busy. Biggest complaint was that the live music was TOO LOUD.

   We arrived for our reservation on time but ended up waiting 15 minutes for our table, despite giving us a 10-minute grace period and our card on file being charged if we could not be accommodated due to our lateness. While we waited at the bar, the service was less than attentive. When we asked the bartender for drink recommendations, he simply handed us the menu, leaving us feeling like a bother. The bar wasn’t busy with patrons but he was making drinks for those at tables. When we finally got to our table, our waitress jumped right into her routine, but it felt more like a rushed drive-thru interaction than a welcoming dining experience. She didn’t introduce herself or engage in any light conversation, which was surprising on Mother’s Day. There were long gaps between our courses, and we often found ourselves having to shout out our requests as she rushed by. On a brighter note, another waiter named Daniel was a breath of fresh air. He brought us our mains with genuine kindness and engaging conversation, which added a much-needed touch of hospitality to our brunch. As for the food, it was a mixed bag. The grits, cornbread, and mushroom salad were delightful, but the burrata came with an odd ratio of two halves of bread, and the swordfish was disappointingly dry. The chocolate bread pudding also missed the mark. To top it off, it felt like the staff wasn’t quite prepared for a busy Sunday service. The table behind us, a party of six, had to drink out of paper cups because they ran out of glassware, even though there were empty tables nearby with glassware that could have been used. Overall, our experience was disappointing on what should have been a special occasion.

   This was our fourth time, and it lived up to our expectations - actually exceeded them - which were super high - since every time we go it is THE BEST! We love Will - a great waiter!
