    A truly exceptional experience. The atmosphere is wonderful. Great lighting, large bar, comfy seats and a bit of disco playing. The staff were inviting and just attentive enough (if you know what I’m saying). Real engagement. Aware of when to engage and when to let us have our conversation. A seasoned staff (not to imply age but rather intuitive). As for the food… there is an option to buy a six-pack for the “kitchen staff”. I certainly did. I haven’t had a good shrimp po boy since I lived in NOLA. The fried chicken was amazing. A hidden gem is the pasta salad. I will not reveal. All i can say is that I haven’t had my palate surprised in ages… Wonderful The vanilla ice cream is amazing as well

    Atmosphere and service were great.our waitress was top notch. The chicken on my Caesar was incredibly dry. I even had two other people try it to make sure I wasn’t crazy. My husband’s chicken wing was cold when he bit into it.

    Food was really well done and and would describe as one of the best values in Charleston for the quality and quantity of the food. Incredible selection of their beers (and others) and an excellent wine list. I'm not a potato chip guy, but they have thee best thick cut chips served with a fish vinegar sauce.
