There is a reason why Nina Compton won the James Beard Best Chef (south) this year. The pork tenderloin was insane, tuna tartare delicious and the drinks incredible.

This was easily one of the best meals I've ever experienced. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable and really prepared us for what was being served. Definitely try the Hamchi to start the table.
