We had the mussels, pecan and crusted goat cheese with a cranberry compote, deep fried double egg with lump crab meat for appetizers. For dinner, we had the burger the medallions, medium, rare, and the filet mignon medium rare everything was cooked perfect and everything was delicious. It’s about 40 minutes from my house, but I’ll definitely make a trip back. Just wish it was closer. It’s definitely a must try.

It took over an hour to get our food, server forgot to put in our appetizers other tables that sat after us got their food before we did. My wife got vegetarian dish with only nine little gnocchis. The manager said I can’t do anything about that’s all on the kitchen I have nothing to do with that. The kitchen does all the portion. Great answer from a manager!! Then she left the table and that was that. Very disappointing!!

The devil eggs with crab were wonderful as they always are. We ordered the bacon wrapped steak great as always the chicken biscuits were fine but not made fresh the breast were cold. Everything else was excellent as usual we always enjoy their Sunday brunch We arrived around 2:30 pm and normally go around noon maybe that was why the chicken breast were cold First time this has happened normally food is pipping hot not sure what the problem was today

Our New Year's Eve dinner was excellent! I had the onion straws and spicy ranch dip, so good! My wife had the white bean and pork soup which she raved about. My wife had the beef medallions wrapped in bacon with mashed potatoes and green beans, I had the dinner special beef filet topped with crab and shrimp with the same sides. Both entrees were excellent and cooked as requested (medium rare). We split a piece of coconut pound cake for dessert. Again very good! I can't say enough about the outstanding service provided by server Tricha. She was knowledgeable, personable, and attentive without being obtrusive. A truly outstanding New Year's Eve dinner!
