Honestly, the pizza was disappointing. The crust did not stand up to the thick layer of cheese,…read moremaking it difficult to pick up a slice. The toppings were not very plentiful or have much flavor. Plus they had run out of mushrooms. The woman who took our order did not drink beer so she had no recommendations. On the other hand, she did allow us to change the TV channel so we could watch the World Cup match, and the space is cute.

We're doing a road trip with the family from Philly to Miami and wanted a nice dinner spot. Quick…read moregoogle search and this amazing restaurant pops up. First, about a 10-15 min detour from 95, free parking, cute little area with restaurants and a hiking trail. Restaurant is beautiful. Staff are efficient and friendly. Made great recs. Food is fairly priced and most importantly delicious! The owners are at the restaurant, the chef Ed, who's also from Philly! Came out to speak to us. His wife Yalem is beautiful and brought us to our table. We would highly recommend to anyone! I'm going to have to come back because they sold out of the peach crisp :(

We made a reservation weeks in advance and got seated without any problem when we got here. It was…read morea very busy Sunday lunch time during the graduation season. Ambiance was casual. They have a big space though there are also a lot of chairs and tables around. Food was good. The brisket was tender. Options for sides include mac & cheese, collard greens, string beans, broccoli, Spanish rice, potatoes au gratin, baked beans, coleslaw, fruit salad, corn bread, yams, french fries, etc. The coleslaw and baked beans were also good. For desserts, we enjoyed the bread pudding and peach cobbler. Would have given this place a 4/5 for food but service was really bad. Food took a long time to be served. This we understood because it was really a busy day. Because the cloth napkins smelled like rancid oil, we just asked for paper napkins. This took ~30 minutes before we got some. We also asked for some condiment. Since no one was checking on our table, we had to stand up and approach one of the staff to follow up on this, not once but twice but some vinegar never came. Though our server Gracie acknowledged and apologized for the bad service, service was still crappy and disappointing.

Pleasant surprise! Was passing through and raced to pick up my order by 9, though the kitchen…read morecloses at 9 but they're open until 9:30. No biggie. Excellent quality fish. Thanks!

Came to dine in and the experience was not what I expected unfortunately…read more We have eaten here before but it has been take out and let me tell you service is EVERYTHING when you go out to eat. It was a party of three and we ordered our food and one person got their food in 5-7 minutes and the rest took 20+ minutes. By the time we got our food the other person had asked for take out box LOL. I had the pad thai and it was cold and flavors not good at all. (I have eaten it before and it did not taste the same) We also ordered Ramen and it was good. I did not eat the Pad thai and asked if it could be compensated and they only took off 15% of the meal. Overall this place might be great for take out but is mid for dining in. My two cents are service needs to be on point and food needs to be consistent. Hopefully next time we try it will be better.

*update May 17, 2026…read more The local manager reached out and I'm impressed. No excuses, but an apology and they are sending a gift card. Here's what I value--old school customer service--I will try them again when we travel that way because they reached out to do the right thing. I'm hopeful and will give them another try. The folks there were frantically trying to fill orders and I'll give them credit. However, when we picked up our order (it wasn't ready on time), it was wrong, awful quality and ended up being inedible. The pulled pork lacked flavor, the portions of the sides was small and the Brunswick Stew was nasty. And I love Brunswick Stew. The pecan pie was some kind of gross blob of gel that tastes nothing like pecan pie. I'm so utterly disappointed. For context, we'd been traveling all day and just wanted some comfort food in our bellies and rest up for the rest of our trip. Such a bummer.
