It was by boyfriends birthday and they made it special from the hostess stand to walking out the door. Austin was a wonderful server and the food was very good. Not wildly expensive either. Great choice to celebrate - will definitely be back and often.

We didn't eat off of the main menu, just the happy hour menu. The happy hour menu was disappointing. Oyster preparation was a little strange, smashburger was overcooked, and they were out of a couple items on the menu. Service was fantastic but they need to up the food game to compete with Ruth Chris's

Hidden gem: I was so happy to have found this enchanting local restaurant! The food is hands-down amazing: delicious and creative like you’d normally only find in a big city. Our waiter was charming, knowledgeable, AND so kind and patient (a couple of our party are very picky eaters), he really added positive points to the experience. There’s more seating than at first appears, so we were able to get in last minute on a Saturday evening. I LOVE that the menu changes often; more chances to try new flavors. We’ll definitely be back!
