I couldn't have asked for a better dinner date than coming here with my super thoughtful boyfriend…read morewho completely spoiled me with such great food! We came Valentine's Day weekend from Columbus, GA after attending mass. He really wanted to take me here and I'm so glad he did. We had the bread and butter which was to die for! I think they gave us too much butter over bread ratio, but l'm not complaining haha. So warm, soft, fluffy and delish the bread was. I don't think we talked much when we had our wagyu steak main course cause it was so good, we couldn't say a word to each other. The pepper sauce with the perfectly cooked medium rare steak (which came cut in two pieces, which is a really genius move to serve steak by the way), with white asparagus, caramelized onion, rose petals, and just pure deliciousness. Literally chef's kiss. We also couldn't make up our mind about desserts cause they had a Valentine's dessert menu and the couple sitting next to us also recommended the cookies and milk. Yeah- I'm really lucky and very spoiled. Definitely hit a sugar high, but absolutely worth it. Servers and greeters were also all so kind and attentive. Definitely recommend :) I think this is the nicest dinner anyone has ever treated me to. Thanks for my amazing boyfriend- I'm so grateful.

We were promptly seated when we arrived. Our group decided to sit outside and we enjoyed it. The inside ambiance is also very nice. Staff were great. They quickly took our drink orders and came back with our drinks shortly after. We ordered the sampler plate, bread and fries as appetizer which were delicious. Our main dishes all come out together, which was amazing since it was a group of twelve. Everyone enjoyed their food. We also got the cookies and milk for dessert which they brought out with a happy birthday and congrats sign to finish off our celebration. Again the service was great. They made the celebration feel really good.

Our attendant was Faith - she took very good care of us. We enjoyed talking with her. We give her A++ for doing a great job. Also compliment the young man who cleaned and set up tables AND made sure we had a full glass of water. He said it was his third day on job and he did a wonderful job for being "new". The ambiance was very nice - every person we talked with was very friendly and pleasant. The restaurant was full but the service went smooth. This was our second visit and we plan to come again.

The water has an earthy, funky flavor that is somewhat concerning. Nobody got ill. But I consider…read moreoffering people gross water a little inhospitable. I believe it effected some of the flavors of foods that were boiled in it, too. Gnocchi had some of the same off flavor. In addition, some of the flavors just feel way out of whack for totally unrelated reasons. Sauce that the duck came in was thin and overwhelmed by honey. The risotto it was served with seems like it should be rich and homey. But despite a crazy amount of added dairy still tasted thin and flat. Can't tell you why. Wonky seasoning? None of the dishes reflected any familiarity with acid to lighten or balance a dish. Fried green tomatoes were pretty mid despite a quality remoulade and a bunch of pimento cheese. Ingredients seem like they're decent quality. Desserts are legitimately top notch. Everyone recommends the peanut butter pie. And it is excellent, though pretty obviously not long out of the freezer. The affogato Is legitimately fantastic. And I'm not even talking about the pageantry of dumping the espresso on the salt ice cream. The combo is legitimately satisfying, like a well-rounded creamy candy. The plates are funky and cool and beautiful. The staff all seem like they're 19, attractive, and gregarious.

Before my parents even ordered a drink they brought the appetizer and the dessert out together (???) I even told the girl on the phone that I wanted to order them something to start and something to end their meal. Very strange to bring a dessert out with the appetizer before they even eat dinner?! The reservation was at 6:30 pm! The "lightly fried" artichokes were very fried. My mom ordered the chicken piccata which looks like boiled chicken and the noodles were all stuck together and inedible. Very disappointing for their anniversary. They have a great building and hope they can turn this around.

But the food was excellent, I had the big ravioli special- spicy sausage.My wife had the chicken piccata- it was also wonderful. We later ventured upstairs for another glass of wine and dessert. I can only speak for what we ate. I had the pecan pie, wife had banana pudding, and some friends with us had the cheesecake. Tried them all and would order it again. Like homemade. Wasn't cheap all prices not bad, probably $$$ but was well worth the trip and will definitely go again. I give it a 5 because, everything was great and I can't find anything to complain about.

Y'all already know ima tell you about the vibes. Bookstore inside got me thinking about the homies who love books (Macy, I'm looking at you). But you already know you gonna catch me on that patio. The first time I got a Lemon Blush tea. Second and third time I got some kind of Red Bull yummy. It was delectable until I tried to take this photo and spilled it all over the dash of my Dad's car (he still doesn't know though guys, don't be a narc). But trust, I salvaged it with my cat like reflexes. Next time I'm in Auburn, I will certain return. Maybe I'll even crack open a book and learn something new! Can't wait to turn some pages and spend some paper - come on now!

I started off with the Moon Over Madagascar, and let me tell you--if this drink had a fan club, I'd be president. The black tea and vanilla combo sounded like a weird dare at first, but it ended up being shockingly amazing. Whoever came up with that mix deserves a bonus and maybe a parade. Now, let's talk about the shrimp and grits, because these were not just "good." These were "call your mama and tell her you've tasted greatness" good. The chef is from South Carolina, and you can taste every bit of Lowcountry pride in that bowl. Perfectly cooked grits? Check. Pile of blackened shrimp? Double check. A sauce that made me rethink my entire life? Oh yeah. If they sold that sauce by the gallon, I'd be bankrupt but extremely happy. Erica, our waitress, was an absolute rockstar. Super helpful, incredibly informative, and somehow managed to keep the perfect balance of friendly and professional--even on the Sunday after the Iron Bowl, when half of Auburn is stress-eating. The place was spotless too, which is impressive considering the emotional damage that game causes every year. Bottom line: The Hound is a must-visit. Come hungry, order boldly, and thank me later.
