My only complaint was that the kitchen took a while to get our food out, but the appetizers and salads came out quickly and if I returned super hungry I would order a soup or salad before dinner. My salmon was top notch. The skin was crispy and the meat was perfectly cooked. My god mother loved her tomato bisque and fried oysters. The grits an polenta were what everyone at the bar was talking about. Many of the cocktails looked delicious and I can wait to come back sometime when I can try a few. It's a perfect spot for a special occasion or a date night.

The fact that our wonderful waitress went out of her way to correct a mere one-dollar error--without waiting for it to be discovered later--speaks volumes about her character. Even though she seemed pleasantly busy (or perhaps she's simply one of those delightful overachievers who takes genuine pride in her work), she still chose to do the right thing with a smile. It made me chuckle in the best way and turned an already lovely meal into something truly memorable. The food was perfect, the service was warm and thoughtful, and the entire experience left me feeling genuinely appreciated. Thank you, dear waitress, for your refreshing honesty and kind heart. I hope this note finds you and brings a smile to your day. Wishing you nothing but wonderful moments ahead--if you ever happen to read this. ambience was very awesome.

I didn't have any problems with the service everyone was polite and welcoming. From the old pictures not much has changed inside, they painted over the walls so the Carolina Diner isn't there on the wall anymore. Food is really good in my opinion. I had a sausage egg and cheese on a biscuit with a side of bacon bc I wanted to try more of the things for a more comprehensive review, also had some home fries. As my friend had told me "we're in biscuit country" (I was thinking of bagels for breakfast) he was right.

But the only flavor on this filet was charcoal. I asked for a steak sauce and they had a berry sauce they offered me. But still, the steak wasn't good. For market price (which was $48 tonight for a 6 ounce) it was dry. It didn't have any unique taste that made it memorable. The manager did refund 75% of the cost of the meal, and I do appreciate it. I believe the menu should mention that the meat is chargrilled. My husband ordered beef skewers to go with the house special tonight of noodles with Asian sauce. He couldn't eat this steak either. It was so overcooked and again, no flavor. Just charcoal. Again, the cost of the skewers were removed off of the bill. So thank you for that. I'm giving this place 3-stars because we really wanted to love it. The ambiance was nice. We didn't have a reservation but were seated promptly. All of the employees were very welcoming. But the food left much to be desired. We didn't order any specialty drinks or wine tonight so I have no review for those, but there were many different types of offerings.
