Christine C. • November 5, 2014Really awesome and plentiful brunch. Try the fried chicken with poached eggs or the shrimp and grits with rosemary sauce. Biscuits come with both and they are phenomenal.

Marcelius F. • November 6, 2015What's not to like? Mimosa, Bacon Bloody Mary, Chicken St. Charles, Croquet Madame, the pancakes or cheesecake stuffed French toast. Everything is delicious!
