We had a recommendation for Heirloom; however, felt under-dressed and walked past it to here. Made it in time for happy hour - enjoyed the beers on tap! The waitress was prompt, knowledgeable, and did a nice job with service.
The excellent rating comes from the FOOD which all arrived timely! The jambalaya was tasty. One friend ordered a burger with bacon so thick he was glad he requested it crispy. The burger itself was a generous sized burger...so much he took 1/2 to the hotel to eat later...and the fries so good he ate all of those at the restaurant (we all had some too!). BBQ pork sandwich was also delicious and a generous portion - the side salad also good.
I had 3 small plates for $15 - all three were excellent and generous portions! The shrimp boil was tasty and perfect for a cool autumn evening. The salmon cakes with garnish were crispy on the outside and moist, nicely done on the inside - good flavors with sauce. Finally, my favorite was the broiled brussel sprouts with thick bacon chunks, poached egg, onions, and a sauce that tied it all together. If I wasn't so full, I would have licked that plate!
The Saturday evening entertainment, added a nice touch to a special evening out with friends.
On the other hand, the fried black eyed peas were...ok as an appetizer - more a curiosity for us. The deep fried pickles were house made and good...though sweet pickles which was not expected. The accompanying sauce helped to make it good...we were a little disappointed it wasn't a dill pickle.
I definitely look forward to coming back here and trying other things on the menu. If this was any hint of what else might be there, it will be well worth the trip! read more
