    Food was fantastic. We had the honey glazed biscuits, pulled pork fries, and wagyu sliders. Kids (5 and 8) loved it all. Pimento cheese and cinnamon butter was super good with the biscuits. Kids did not like the hot chocolate. It was white hot chocolate dyed red. I probably should have asked more about the hot chocolate before ordering. I was excited about the “hot chocolate bar” assuming that it was typical hot chocolate with a variety of toppings to choose from. Great variety of toppings!

    It was a great experience overall. The food was unique and delicious, and it was fun to order a whole bunch of things to share, so we could all taste everything. The atmosphere, mood, and decorations are fun and upbeat and it’s a great location, in the middle of everything. We bought my two teenage nieces with us who loved it.
