    If you're going for weekend brunch, make a reservation in advance to avoid a 40min+ wait.

    Midtown's original Southern fine dining struggles to keep up with the trend it created. Go for the pork shank with parsnip and celery root purée Read more

    The fried chicken was great, but the star was the light as air, but not like whipped cream Banana Pudding and the peachy Back Porch whiskey concoction. Loved it!

    Definitely get the Fried Green Tomatoes. Great on their own, but the red pepper coulis moves it into nearly sublime.
