This place looked very promising based on the reviews, but unfortunately the experience was…read moredisappointing from the moment we walked in. The host greeted us with a very sour attitude and was anything but welcoming. She slammed our silverware onto the table and immediately made everyone in our party feel uncomfortable. The food was average at best, and the menus were sticky with grease, which didn't leave a great impression. To top it off, the wine glasses were so thick they reminded me of my grandmother's eyeglasses. Overall, it just wasn't a pleasant dining experience, and I wouldn't return.

Quite an unfortunate waste of $200. Three of us dined in without a reservation right at 5, and were…read moretold our only option was the back corner. That was fine, but that was the only thing that was fine. Service was slow but okay, the menu was rather limited, and there were limitations to your orders. Want a salad? Fine, but no protein. Bread was only one per person. The steak was poor quality, and the "black garlic butter" was very reminiscent of movie theater butter. For popcorn. We only ate half of it. The restaurant was empty the entire time we were there, so I was disappointed to not get to sit in the main dining room. There was a piano player, which was a nice touch. We left disappointed and hungry, still. Ended up going to a diner down the road to finish the night.

Four out of the five guests in our party were so excited about the Eggs Benedict with a Bernaise sauce instead of the more traditional hollandaise sauce. We loved the option of the crabcake over Florentine choices although I think all of us wish we had gotten the crabcake option after seeing it delivered to our table. The Bloody Mary's were absolutely to die for (not overdone, simple and easy to go thru a few during our breakfast) and I'll be back just for this combination again of the eggs Benedict with Bernaise and a Bloody Mary. The ambience of Heywoods was easy to enjoy. We had a lovely breakfast full of lots of laughter and never felt like we were disturbing others nor did anybody else seem to be disturbed or disrupted by the fun we were having at our table. The server was absolutely wonderful and attentive.

We were asked if we had a reservation even though the entire restaurant was empty... um what? They said they could "fit us in." Ok... . We sat down in a very run down dining room and almost left when we saw the menu. Short ribs with rice? Some odd choices on there. I settled with the shrimp and grits. How bad could it be? Their beer bread is actually pretty tasty - it's kinda sweet and soft with a crunchy crust. But, our entrees were quite unappetizing and not good. My shrimp were pale and covered in a weird cream sauce with mushrooms and tomatoes. The grits were stiff with hardly any flavor. I had some shrimp shells on my plate too. My husband's Gumbo was just as sad. It looked like cafeteria food. His okra was soggy and flavorless and the rice was so over cooked. 4 stars??? Absolutely not!!! The only redeeming factor was the good service and friendly staff.

I'm not a raw fish person but my husband got the tuna tostada and made me try it, and it was great! The lamb chops were perfectly cooked and the sauce, carrots, and pistachios were the perfect complement. The steak sandwich was drool worthy as well.

This review is for takeout Tuesday run by the Southern Inn. This is the second time we got takeout…read more The first one was not too good, vegetables were raw and inedible, pork was so so. We decided to give it another try but this time will also be our last. We ordered the chicken and dumplings. What we got was 2 big containers of chicken broth with little scraps of chicken floating in it. It was like lousy chicken soup. The dumplings were not bad but when I found that some of the "chicken" was skin and even a bone I was disgusted. There was not even a half chicken breast total in the 2 orders. I don't know who is really doing the cooking for this takeout service but it is not good.

There is also a ready to bake option for those eating at home. They also kindly provided us sets of utensils and paper plates for our meal. We got two family meals: Pork carnitas and blackened chicken penne pasta. The pork carnitas meal came with tortilla, rice, lettuce, pico, cheese, sour cream and carnitas. The pork was perfectly cooked- extremely flavorful and juicy. The meal for 2 came with 6 tortillas. The portion sizes are good for the price. The blackened chicken penne pasta was AMAZING! So flavorful and filled with delicious blackened chicken. The pasta came with a salad. This pasta dish for 2 was on the pricier side ($40). Both meals were delicious. The complimentary tomato basil bread was also great!

My calzone was huge, and half was more than enough for a satisfying dinner. My Caesar salad was a little less than spectacular -- the lettuce and croutons came undressed. The other salads that the people at my table got looked a little "also ran," if you know what I mean. For dessert, I got the lemon cake, which was nice and tart but sweet. From what I understand, Gina's is somewhat new, so I think they're still getting their bearings. They're located in an unassuming strip mall. The service was excellent, but the dining room in the restaurant itself has a sort of fast-food feel to it. Maybe some different decor would help.

The list of handhelds, wraps, burgers, wings, and many other "things" is nothing short of a novel and I mean that in the best possible way. Every item sounds like a must-try, so pacing myself over several visits is now officially the plan. Their sandwiches are generously layered, perfectly seasoned, and not shy on the meat (thank you, Macado's!). The vibe? Casual and welcoming, like your favorite hangout spot that just happens to serve next-level lunch. I already can't wait to come back and order something new. Pro tip: bring your appetite and maybe a friend to swap bites with. You'll want to try something new.
