Hands down the best overall meal I have had around Nashville. Four people in our party so we tried each entree on the menu. All were fabulous. Tried two appetizers, two shareable sides - the sweet potato and whipped feta topped the list. Absolutely cannot wait to come back.

The service was great! The food was very good but they no longer have the corn ribs and the potatoes. We were looking forward to these items. Please bring them back!🥺

Food was good overall but they’re terribly slow. Not sure if this was a kitchen staffing issue but we were there for 2.5 hours after ordering a few drinks and shareables. Was definitely a longer than we expected and had to stay on them to get out in that time frame. Going to be hard to go back there.

Such creative side dishes. The pork chop is a reason to live. The focaccia was delish.
