My fiancé and I spent his birthday evening at Dean’s. The food was delicious and service was good. The noise level was surprising, but I must say the food made up for it. We highly recommend this restaurant for a nice evening out.

I really enjoyed the service and the food. The fried catfish, mac and cheese were really good. My homegirl got the black eye peas and she said that were really good as well. Drinks are high however that's expected for the area it is in. Dennis my server was really knowledgeable about the menu and what to try.

I took my wife out to celebrate our one-month wedding anniversary, and the experience was fantastic. The server and management went above and beyond, providing exceptional service throughout the evening and making our celebration feel even more special. The food was incredible, as always. Melting Pot is one of my wife’s favorite spots, so we’ve visited many locations across different states during our travels, but I can honestly say this location stands out with the best service and food we’ve had, hands down.
