    We came in 30 min to closing. My wings had very noticeable feathers on one of them, and my waffle was very dark. Not like the first time I had it. I feel like they were just rushing the food given it was close to closing. Open table accepted my reservation for this time, so I’m assuming the issue was the fact that folks were ready to get off work. Overall food tasted fine, just not as visibly appealing.

    Staff was great. Truly great. The rooms are a little loud when multiple tables are set. The outside area looked very nice. The appetizers and salads were extremely good. We ordered the shrimp and grits and the burger with fries. The shrimp and grits were OK at best. We only ate half of the burgers. The fries were on point.
