    Great food and service. The BBQ was great. As a Texas transplant it’s hard to find good BBQ and this was good

    We weren't quite sure about Texas BBQ with a French preparation but our meal of Brisket and Grilled Watermelon was incredible! The Bourbon cocktail was also very refreshing and tasty too. We'll be back for sure!

    We celebrated my husband’s birthday and we were totally impressed by the thoughtfulness of the wait staff, the entree offerings, appetizers, drinks and complimentary dessert! We will be back again and are spreading the word about this gem of a restaurant

    The food was phenomenal. We tried multiple starters and salads, as well as main courses and desserts. Drinks were all fantastic as well. The location is rather interesting being on the golf course and feels a bit misaligned to the dining experience itself. We understood it to be a casual and kid friendly spot and we luckily dined on a quiet evening. It would likely be loud and not as appealing if there was a full crowd with children.
