    Our only complaint was the music playing. It was too loud to have a good conversation and it didn't fit the holiday season at all. Our server was amazing. The food was super. If, ever in the area again, we would definitely consider eating at your establishment again.

    Promptly seated (6:15 reservation). Waitress was prompt and attentive. The pre-dinner drinks took longer than they have, about a 15 minute wait. Food served hot and was good. The gingerbread bread pudding was delicious. The ambience was very nice and the free 2 hour valet parking was nice.

    Delicious food. Our server was great, offering good recommendations to my sister who was indecisive about what to order. Our server was attentive, cheerful and friendly. Only criticism is the very small size of the cole slaw served with the fish & chips.

    It's one of my favorite restaurants. The servers are always amazing and so friendly. Their fried chicken is amazing. Last time I got the grilled cheese but added on pulled pork and it was one of the best sandwiches of my life. I wish I could remember our servers name because he was awesome and would ask for him every time if I could. He recommends the best stuff always and even when a girlfriend and I stayed longer than normal talking he was so nice and told us to take our time. 20/10 recommend to any and everyone

    My wife ordered the Atlantic Steampot steamed with butter on the side. Although delicious, the seafood selection was underwhelming for the price of the meal. I ordered a pasta alfredo which was filling and tasty.
