   Nice space. Staff was great. Menu is not huge but has good options. A star was removed because of the ketchup, yes the ketchup. They serve the Heinz that is full of high fructose corn syrup and chemicals. Tastes terrible and I like ketchup with my breakfast potatoes.

   Food was mediocre. No decaf coffee, no milk for the children (what?), the Coke tasted swampy and the Bloody Mary’s were blah.

   Love the place great food and staff. Can be a little noisy at the small table in back. Especially with young people who don’t know what an inside voice is.

   Service was perfect - attentive without hovering or too distant. Food was delicious and reasonably priced (prices great for the area). Coffee was a delicious. Great place for brunch!! We left something on our table when we left and they went ABOVE AND BEYOND to retrieve it.

   The hanger steak was phenomenal! Very good meal for Restaurant Week. Very good value for the price.

   We enjoyed our dinner here. Started with broccoli cheddar soup and Parker rolls. So good! And had the short rib and then fried chicken. Both were so good. My husband said his chicken was better than chicken at husk in Nashville and IYKYK that’s saying something. I’ll be back for sure!

   Went there with my wife for Restaurant Week after having made a reservation through Open Table. 7:00 p.m. reservation, confirmed. When we arrived at the restaurant, the server - who was very polite - informed us that the Restaurant Week menu was all done for the day (?!?). We decided to stay and after looking over the menu, we both chose an entreé that had been part of the RW menu, only to be told by the server that the kitchen was out of that item. At that point we decided to go elsewhere.

   We got a reservation in advance to try out the restaurant week menu. Upon sitting down, half the items were not available anymore. We ended up leaving and going elsewhere.

    The servers weren’t very attentive. We didn’t have spoons on the table for our coffee. We had to flag their attention a few times for our needs and it didn’t appear too busy at the restaurant. So I wasn’t too happy with the service. The food wasn’t memorable, at least for the Restaurant Week brunch. I might come back another time to check out their regular menu.
