I used to come here before they got renovated and was small and cozy, loved it then and love it now! The chicken wings were a huge hit at the table for appetizers, and not sure what sauce came with the fried green tomatoes but it was delicious! I had the salmon and it was cooked to perfection, although i’m happy I got a side of asparagus since the side of greens was a small bed for the salmon. My sister loved her burger and fries, all around a good experience! Brunch on the patio will remain my favorite time to come here though :)
