    Great little gem of a place. Excellent cocktails and rocking karaoke !! I've been back multiple times whenever I visit Montgomery.

    I will start off with my server India...she was a fantastic waitress. She was knowledgeable about…read morethe menu, and that she didn't, she was willing to find out for me with no hesitation. I had the Lobster Spinach Queso, it was very flavorful. Was looking for more of a crunch to the chips, but otherwise very flavorful. I had the Chilean Sea Bass, w/ seasonal ancient grains and vegetables. The Chilean Sea Bass was also very flavorful, different than what I'm use to but delicious nonetheless. I believe the seasonal ancient grains and vegetables would have been better paired with some type of gravy or sauce. I also had (the best part of my meal) the 5 Layer Lemon Cake, with the blueberry topping...soooo good! The ambiance was light and celebratory! Kudos again to India! Shoutout also to her manager Chris!

    I give FIVE STARS to Katie; our server buuuuut If you're the…read morechef reading this, take notes: The food was pretty damn awful Ahi Tuna was overcooked; the slaw stuff they put in the middle had a horrid after taste Wedge Salad was literally covered in Bleu Cheese dressing and the bacon bits were burnt, the one strip of bacon lazily laid on top was UNDERCOOKED, and it is definitely not worth the outrageous price you set on your menu. In fact none of it is. My date's steak although wrapped in bacon, was extremely salty. I had the Shrimp & Grits .. and man The andouille sausage was AMAZING. Shrimp was a bit tough. But the grits? The worse plate of grits I've ever had in my life. It was utter mush, which is okay if that's how you cook it but it's supposed to be cheese grits and I didn't taste anything cheese about it. No seasoning. Grease around the edges. I literally got a little nauseous looking at it after a while because I thought of how that would upset my stomach. No offense but if you're going to claim to be this fine dining restaurant, at least put out the quality in food.. Other than that the setting and environment was pretty chill. And also cold but that's okay, it is super hot outside. We will not be returning.

    Had another fantastic lunch date at The Box @ The Rex with Amy, and once again the pizza was…read moreincredible. Easily some of the best pizza in our area. The brick oven flavor, the artisan approach, and the quality of the ingredients really set this place apart. The crust has that perfect balance of crisp and chewy, and every pizza tastes like it was made with real pride and attention to detail. Great atmosphere, great food, and consistently impressive every time we go. Definitely a local gem for anyone who truly appreciates quality pizza.

    Came with my family on a Friday afternoon in August. Not sure if it was the heat or what, but for…read morethe full hour and a half we were there (4:30-6pm), no one else sat/played outside. The outdoor space is GREAT for rambunctious kiddos who need to burn off some energy, and even though it would've been nice to have a couple more kids for our girls to play with, it was also pretty cool having it all to ourselves. The amount of flies and ants was pretty crazy though. I think the whole family came home with several new bites each. Friday is food truck Friday, and Moore's tasty food truck was there. For $38 we got a drunken dog combo (huge conecuh sausage dog with Mac and cheese and baked beans), 5 piece chicken wing combo (sweet heat) with green beans and French fries, and cheese nachos (nacho cheese was a little spicy for my 3 year old). Portion sizes were pretty large. My husband, two girls, and I were all satisfied with the amount of food. Even though it was all really tasty, my family usually sticks to vegetarian options. Veggie options were limited to a fajita bowl with no meat, a salad without the meat, the cheese nachos, or just sides (but even the green beans were even cooked with bacon) Indoors is simple - just a bar with a decent selection of draft beer and a couple of wine options, and a frozen lemonade option for the kids; bathrooms; I think some bar games; and a small space for live music performances. Overall we enjoyed ourselves, and we're looking forward to going again.. especially once it cools down a little in the fall.
