We decided we didn't want to risk having the same experience again for Christmas dinner. As we were leaving, I happened to come across Brass & Anvil and decided to call on a whim to see if they had any availability for Christmas Day. To my surprise, they were fairly open and able to accommodate us, which ended up being such a blessing. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by Luke (I believe that was his name), a 16-year-old host with the warmest smile and such genuine kindness. He seated us with care and made us feel immediately welcome. Our server, whose name I unfortunately can't remember along with Luke, provided excellent service throughout the entire meal. The food was absolutely amazing! Every dish was delicious, and there was not a single complaint at the table. The drinks were fabulous as well, perfectly crafted and enjoyable. Overall, the entire experience exceeded our expectations!! We had an amazing experience at Brass & Anvil and would absolutely return. Highly recommend, especially if you're looking for great food, great drinks, and even better service!! Oh and the ambiance was so so classy and cozy. Thank y'all so much!!

Deliciously made like a stuffed pizza with crusty exterior and excellent chicken. And spinach flavors with the Swiss cheese really bringing everything together. Beignets Cold and almost frozen in the middle. This one should be taken off the counter. Not recommended at all. Hit and miss here, great coffee house ambience with a patio as well. That's all....

In this area this is very reasonable. We'll be back!

Atmosphere: The restaurant is located at the end of a state park past a trailer park, don't let the entrance fool you. They had plenty of parking. There is ONLY outdoor seating so keep that in mind, especially during the heat of the summer. You order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. They have a lovely outdoor seating area with beautiful view of the mountains and you can look at their small garden. Service: The service was great. Our food was brought promptly and everyone we encountered was friendly. Food: The food was AMAZING. I live in Tampa, Florida and this chef can easily compete with professional chefs in Tampa. The food was soooo good. The chef changes the mean each week and cooks based off what's available. The chef puts love into his food and it shows. We tried the 'Baked Feta' appetizer which was so good. It came with crostini and purslane. I've never eaten purslane before but it was so good. I had their 'Bone Marrow Pasta' and it was AMAZING. The pasta is homemade. My husband had their 'Smoked Salmon Grower Bowl' and loved it. They must smoke the salmon themselves because it did not look store bought. For dessert, we got their last slice of 'Apricot Blueberry Pie', the piece came with homemade vanilla ice cream. It was soo good. I can't say enough good things about our dinner here. We came here around 5:30, on a Monday evening, and it was very busy by the time we left at 7 pm. I recommend come right when they open because they only cook items on the menu until they're gone.

I'm not drinking at the moment so the water was good and the service was good, but I can't say anything good about my dinner the chicken was crispy and dry, but it was hot.

The vegetable was serve cold, and the onions would look warm the bread that they served before the dinner was gluten-free very thin excellent along with the little bit of spread that they gave you with it, but I wasn't impressed with the food.

Hominy presents itself as a celebration of Southern cuisine, but the experience ultimately feels…read morefar more restrained than the name suggests. Technically, there is little to fault proteins are cooked properly, dishes arrive thoughtfully plated, and the kitchen clearly understands execution on a fundamental level. Yet despite that competence, the meal never quite delivers the depth, richness, or soulful intensity that defines truly memorable Southern cooking. The issue is not preparation, but personality. Southern cuisine, at its best, is layered with comfort, seasoning, texture, and unapologetic flavor. Here, everything feels dialed back to a point where the dishes become forgettable rather than evocative. Nothing is poorly made, yet very little leaves a lasting impression. For diners unfamiliar with Southern food, the menu may feel approachable and polished. But for those expecting the warmth, boldness, and distinct identity the cuisine is known for, the overall experience lands as surprisingly bland and ultimately somewhat lackluster.

It smells wonderful, like you were back at home, waiting on Sunday Supper when you enter. Definitely not fancy, but the staff quickly greets you with a warm friendly welcome smile and some great tips on what to expect. It seems like they are only willing to hype up whatever they are serving in a modest way, because they seem to really enjoy the over-the-top reactions that will follow, once the meal is served. Seriously, I had a cup of their clam chowder, and a bowl of the Habanero Chile and pork stew, with sliced bread and butter. Wow! The clam chowder was very good, but that stew was super delicious. It was so good, we had to go back the next evening to do it all over again. This time I ordered the Chicken and sausage stew, which was also delicious. I would have gone a third night, if I didn't have to get back to So Cal the next morning. The prices are very reasonable and the service is friendly, prompt and professional. I highly recommend this place and just pray they will be open when I return in October.

There's seating both downstairs and upstairs, plus a walk-up window for quick pick-up, which is super convenient.
