    We have not been to Rays for a number of years and decided to go for our anniversary. The overall experience from the staff, service and food was amazing. We went for lunch and had a great seat near the window and had a great view of the river. We will definitely go back and check it out for dinner.

    Went to Mac's for Brunch on a Sunday to celebrates a friend's birthday and it was an elegant yet warm and friendly. The Pimento Cheese Fritters and Pork Belly on shaved Brussel Sprounts were just right. The Brisket hash with poached eggs were a little dry but the Hollandaise was on point. All the other entrees were exceptional. The Service was simply amazing. Maura is such a pro! We will be back for brunch again!

    Our fave for special occasions has become a staple in our area. We celebrated two birthdays this evening. Great food, great bar, great ambiance. Got seated late for our reservation due to previous guests running late but drinks at the bar were good and hostess came to get us when table was ready. Pasta dishes are outstanding and starters were a big hit. Love Capers!
