    Had the pork butt special: SO tender and scrumptious! Loved the decor and atmosphere, and the live music (open mic on Mondays?) was delightful. Also great: pork chop, lamb appetizer, and pear gimlet.

    Everything on the menu is outstanding!!! The service is top drawer! Fun for a first date or just a nice place to chill out. The martinis are perfect!! This is in my top 5 favorites places to eat.

    A great restaurant with fair pricing and excellently prepared food. There's a lot more room than appears to be from the street; personally, I'd ask to sit upstairs. Solid local draft beer selection.

    The mushroom ragout stole the show as a choice at a wedding I attended here. Those who chose meat dishes were making room on their plates just to see what all the hype was about. Amazing food & venue!

    Nice ambience mixed with well prepared southern cuisine makes for a great date night. Try one of the heartier dishes like the short ribs (fall off the bone!).

    Chicken is incredible if you don't mind working through the bones. Fries are amazing too....all the food is awesome and drinks too! I will be back.

    Charming little spot with great food and atmosphere. The bar service is a bit slow when busy, but not a deal breaker in any sense.

    The servers are amazing. So nice. I had the steak and as we eat paleo they were able to adjust things on the menu.

    The pork chop is out of this world. So tender you dont need a knife.

    Amazing short ribs. But don't eat here if they are hosting a wedding reception upstairs.

    Ed rocks! I'm allergic to everything. No, seriously almost everything. He still tried to find something new for me to taste. Now that's #Hospitality

    If its hot outside make sure you get seating in the A/C. We made reservations a month ago and were told that all the inside seating was reserved....Jerks... Never again
