Went on a Friday night. I had the lamb, my friend had pork. The portions were on the small side, but the food tasted great, and Kimberly, our server was awesome.

Service was on point and food was perfect combination for the perfectly crafted drinks. Clean and inviting. Atmosphere was relaxing but vibrant.

I really enjoy coming here. I give it a 3 because the service is not great (I give 5 if it is an impressively high quality experience all around, 4 for good food/good service, 3 is for good food/bad service or vice versa lol). It’s not rude service, just poor (slow, forgetful, inattentive, etc). But I like the food so I deal. The food quality does vary by location and this is a fairly consistent location so this is the only one I continue to go to. The food is always very fresh and the flavors are well balanced. The shrimp & grits is something everyone (without allergies) should try at least once. It was not something I would ever expect to be high ranking on my list but it is insanely good and may very well be one of their best dishes.

Went there yesterday (on Sunday) for lunch with a friend. They were all so nice, and even comped us a super awesome nacho bowl (gauc, bacon, cheese, the works) ! I think because they realized the food would be a quite a wait (all the tables got filled within 5 minutes of us walking in), but it was very sweet of them! Great taste, and absolutely great service! Will definitely be going back
