    Cigar and spirt My friends and I have been looking for a…read morelounge that serves sprits and allows cigars. Though you cannot enjoy a cigar inside they have a nice covered area outside the lounge. Spirit availability was impressive for the size lounge. I was interested in Redbreast Irish Whiskey and they had 12, 15, and wow 21!!! The lounge inside was what I consider small, bar seating, and some table and comfortable chairs. The outside area was covered. Comfortable chairs with tables and ashtrays to handle about 25+/-. Two TV's. There are standing fans and heaters. There was no service to the outside area, so you picked-up your choice of spirit and got comfortable outside. We enjoyed our spirit and cigars with no one complaining about the smoke. It happened to be a very rainy night and the north area was a bit flooded, but no leaks from above. Pro Great selection of spirits. Cigar and I think cigarettes, evidence by butts in the ashtrays, are allowed outside. The inside lounge was very clean, as well as the two unisex bathrooms. Con The flooded area was unfortunate, but there was only three of us, and it didn't cause an issue. The Ashtrays had been mostly emptied, but not wiped down. Really not inviting to rest your cigar on a dirty ashtray. An easy wipe with a microfiber goes a long way. Not really a Con, but there was no Service outside on the Tuesday night we visited. Overall a nice experience for a dreary night. My friends and I will return, hopefully on a nicer evening. Note: If you don't bring your own cigar, the liquor store has a small selection available right next door.

    Terrible experience. They seriously need to rethink their staff / management. Bathroom also…read moreflooding and gave a very bad smell to the whole place.

We ordered their special fruity yummy drink. It was good, but 3 sips at $10 or $12 and it's gone? WTF! Really. Look at my photos. Tons of crushed ice. Waste of time and money. Prime Rib sammy was good, enough for 2. We got 2 sides, one came with. Collars were good but coukd be better. Ive had better locally and in Firt Lauderdake. Grits were creamy. Added Salt/Pepsi to taste. So overall it's ok. I think they get away with medoicre Southern because there's no challenger in town thats this vibe. So you pay for the dine in atmosphere etc, but the food 8s all middle of road. Now, i will admit Im a foodie from a harsh location, Ft Lauderdale, makes you tough because we eat everything from all cultures, so you gotta bring your A game, and we travel alot. You can do medoicre Mexican in an suburb where only Mexicans come to clean house, so going to get a taco or nachos os badic in some areas. But we travel to where Mexicans own it, eat it, and barely speak English. Thats authentic. So it's true here! Its a great place for Southern Comfort food, but we are always underwhelmed with their execution. On the first visit, crab cake stack. Average. Devil eggs were basic and disappointing. Unsure how you cant do well on a basic dish. Creamy. No kick flavor. It would be nice is the could level up their execution. The menu reads great, but we are consistently just like "OH, ok. Descent." So definitely visit. Expect average, just ok. If you arent Southern, this will be great for you, as you have no reference point. Don't go in like you are going to be transplanted to the South. Its average execution. Like creamy cheese grits but nothing extraordinary. I've had grits in North Carolina, Sunny Pointe, you might eat a finger scooping up the shrimps and grits. Definitely worth a visit. Its famiky friendly. I think you pay 20% for the atmosphere. Ckean, cute decor. Love the twigs etc, branches. The porch sitting feel. You saw parents and kids, you could tell it's back to school. Today, 8/15, they were low on waiters. So took a long time for anyone to check back on us. But you could see other unhappy tables, one guy yelling at Mgr, so maybe some slippage in this upstart.

True to the quote- I got my call right at 45 minutes. We had a party of 8- me and John, my sister, her hubby and her 2 girls & my mom and her man. I put in an appetizer order for cheese curds right away, knowing I wanted to try them- but when you order appetizers, service slows. They don't take your order for regular food right away. Meanwhile, bathroom situation here is one stall rooms. AKA- one at a time- that was a little brutal. Cheese curds were phenominal- only better I've had were in Milwaukee! Food was ordered and it took forever and a day- my poor niece didn't get her food till everyone was finished eating. She actually left and stood in line for the bathroom to avoid watching us all eat. I felt horrible for her. Meanwhile- everyone's food was fabulous. Except mine. John and I ordered the philly cheesesteak. There was not nearly enough meat. The burgers that hit the table- huge, juicy and cheesey. The charcuterie board- spectacular! The bowl of soup huge and filling. Our cheesesteak- bread and a ton of cheese and over cooked meat that didn't meet the ratio of meat-bread-cheese. For a very small, curated menu- I expected everything to be delicious. I was genuinely sad that our meal failed. And the wait on Addy's lunch was unacceptable. Those 2 things bumped a 4 star review down, I actually selected 4 when I started typing and then changed it to 3 because recalling this memory to write this up... sigh. I love supporting small. These are fixable issues.
