Yay! What a fabulous find. Got a resy during move in and was exactly what we needed to relax and…read moreunwind. Packed but felt fun and alive versus loud and cramped. Drinks were fabulous (try the Peach Mule) and we crushed the bacon flight (fought over who could get the last maple bite). Then we had shrimp and grits, bison burger and a Caesar. All were flavorful and some of the best we've ever had. Our server was training tonight but his apprentice was just as knowledgeable and attentive - in fact he helped us with drink selection and ensured we had bottles of water flowing since we were so dehydrated from the day. Cannot wait to go back and try other things on the menu. Thank you friends at the Hound - hit the spot.

Food: 3.5 Service: 5 stars…read more We tried sooo many items on the menu. We had the pork skins, wings, and bacon flight for starters. The pork skins were very good and crispy. The wings were wayyy too big and felt undercooked, and the bacon flight was unremarkable. The entrees were also okay. The best was the shrimp and grits which I would return on this dish only. Evrything was just too too salty. My palate was ruined after a while. The rest were just okay, but I did like the greens. Standout was that bread pudding. Grab a friend to help you or keep it all for yourself!!

Wide variety of drinks and some food. I had a Montepulciano for $9 a glass, reasonable and no cover charge. Tip: it's 1st come 1st served seating. Another girl and I stood at the front desk for 5 mins without realizing this. Great place around Auburn University to listen to some nice live music while sipping on a drink!

Anytime I'm visiting the area, I love to stop in to this cute cocktail spot! It's a college town,…read moreso it's kind of unexpected because it doesn't only cater to students. It gives speak easy vibes, and the lighting and seating make it comfortable. They even have a cocktail for a cause with donations given to an organization when that specific drink is purchased. I loved that they were celebrating Harry Potter's birthday, and we enjoyed potions that represented our houses. (I'm Gryffindor if you're curious.) It was slow, but I like to come in when the university doesn't have athletic events or fall/spring classes aren't in session. The bartenders were kind & helpful when we asked questions. There's parking in front of the door & the surrounding areas, so depending when you go, it may be easy or difficult to park. Love: chestnut club (gin-based, suggested by the bartender); vibes (really good energy here)

This is the same person that helped me last time I was in town and the only other time I've been here. She is super helpful and talks you through all the options. Came in at happy hour which is $3 off all drinks from 4:00 to 8:00 Monday thru Friday. I got a great well-made old fashioned for $7.63! Old school prices for the old school ambiance. It's a bit of a hike getting up the stairs to the place but it is worth it as you feel transported back in time. Well decorated with great music. Great place to chill and relax from the summer heat. Will definitely return next time I'm in town.

Spent Mardi Gras here! We had so much fun!!! Drinks were about $8. Little steep for Auburn, but…read morereally not bad. The food here is good but servings are really small. I've ordered the gumbo before which was about $9 and a very small cup of soup came out. Not enough for a full meal. Ambiance here is great though and service is good. The porch is perfect for a pretty day! Parking is in the back.

Gorgeous place! The staff is incredible…read more We all loved our meals. They use fresh farm to table ingredients and you can really taste it. We had the oysters... yum. Fried green tomatoes- wasn't the biggest fan of pimento cheese, but if that's your thing I'm sure it would have been delicious. I had the strawberry / spinach salad. It was decent but a little too much dressing on parts and a bit dry in others. The biscuits were a star of the other meal. Sadly, no lattes... the only other bummer was that the waiter forgot my cocktail. He apologized when I asked for it... I know accidents happen

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.
