They have really good fried chicken and Mac and cheese . They have a really good appetizer with pimento cheese bread with sour dough toast and fried pickles . So good!!

Justin Mello

You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. I’m a sucker for the trout , but don’t let the Pot Roast fool you. Great small plates as well . I recommend the Quail or the Pork Belly

Kimber Garrison Biles

I had the pork tenderloin . My husband had the pot roast . We loved both. Cocktails were cute and fun. Wasn’t impressed with our service or server. We had reservations but felt like 2nd rate citizens

Michael Morgan

Amazing restaurant with wonderful outdoor seating ! I ordered the fried chicken , macaroni & cheese , and grits ! Every single thing was so good. We went during lunch and it was very well priced as well !

Jacob Duckett

Excellent variety of entrees. I had a delicious duck plate. Wonderful desserts , including tasty sweet after dinner wines . Staff was incredibly friendly , especially to our kids. Awesome place!!

This was our first time we visited this restaurant . The menu selections were plentiful and I love seafood . The portion sizes were wonderful. Plan to visit again.

Chatta -Hattan and the scallops for lunch will put a really, really wide smile on any face. Honorable mention to the equally delicious caprese salad and curry chicken soup .

Alexa Jane Brooks

Mac n Cheese ! Everything's tastes great here. Wander into the social when you're done and have a drink.

The veggie plate is the perfect lunch ! The mac & cheese is where it's at.

Pork roast or pot roast ; they're both great!

James C

Great food. Southern chicken is amazing.

Gentry Sherrill

Two waiters claimed (and I confirmed) that the pot roast is the best entree. Try it!

Alex Grismer

I mean, nothing was really awesome. The shoe string fries were terrible- so thin you can’t scoop a condiment onto them. The beet and goat cheese side was bland at best. Drinks were... whatever.

Melinda Hogan

Order the deviled eggs to start - the best ever!

Casey

Head straight to the bar in the back of the restaurant . Full menu, great drinks, great service.
