The wait staff was attentive and friendly. Our food was delicious! We tried the chili, the burger, the chicken wrap, and the fish and chips. Nice sized portions that were out and freshly prepared. My husband also had a beer, which was refreshing. There is no age restriction until 9 PM so our son was able to join us for lunch. My only complaint is that the soda comes out in a small glass that needs to be refilled frequently. Not a huge deal, but just a minor annoyance.

The store oozes sophisticated, unpretentious, and warm charm from the immaculate and beautiful landscaping and attractive exterior to the decor and appointments that distinguish each of the several dining areas. As we were a party of six we were seated in what appears to have been in the original home, a small sunroom just to the west side of the front door. It is pictured below. We started with the iron skillet cornbread for the table which is surely the most flavorful cornbread I've ever had, rendered perfectly crisp around the edges by the cast iron skillet. I had a taste of the store's gumbo and it is the real deal in spades. The roux is a true dark chocolate colored roux taken to celestial heights by hearty shrimp stock. The perfect heat in the dish makes it sing. Next visit my wife and I will start with a shared bowl of this. I totally failed to photo document the meal save for my brother's stuffed quail which he declared outstanding. It is served atop a mound of gorgeous, dark green Southern cooked collard greens. I opted for the shrimp salad sandwich as I had just last week made a shrimp salad for the first time in my 77 years for this same group and wanted to see what a shrimp salad from a great kitchen tastes like. It is so enjoyable here. My one issue is with the bun it is served on. The bun is house made and delicious, but it's quite tall and firm. With the salad in this thing it stands probably over three inches tall. And being quite firm it will not smush down. Shack or Charles Barkley might be able to take a bite but I had to deconstruct it and enjoy it with knife and fork. I wish it were served on maybe the brioche bun the grouper is served on or even the crusty but softer roll of the steak sandwich. Everyone was quite pleased with their meal. We were pleased to meet both Chef Briand and owner partner Robert Evans. Our server, Chrissy, was super cordial, knowledgeable, and perfectly attentive. This is all that one hopes for in a great restaurant experience.

Considering it is part of the same group that owns Hope Farms, that would be a reasonable expectation. This is a review of the first visit, which was for lunch The restaurant is beautiful with a great sitting area in the bar and very kind people serving you. The menu had great sounding options, with some really good food. The smoked fish dip was on point with the house made crackers on the side. We also had the waygu beef carpaccio which was melt in your mouth tender, luscious and had a really citrus sauce and definitely something I would order again. The entrees is where things were fine, but not "fine" in the best way. I had the grouper and it was cooked well and had a good sauce with it. The serving size was smaller than I expected, but it was lunch. Others with me had stuffed quail, and two ordered the swordfish tacos. They all liked the food. It was not remarkable. Also, while our server was really nice and kind, it was like she was trying not to bother us.... To the point that we could not get service we needed when we needed it - for example just wanting some salt...

Our service was good and the manager came out to explain our problem with the food. We had the southern fish and chips. The fish was served over sweet potato chips that are not made fresh to order.
