Delicious food. Definitely home made goodness. Beautiful presentation in a soft calming atmosphere. Only one little muffin; however as we waited, and got them when I asked what was presented to two other tables. Drinks expensive but not as highly rated. Disappointed with the Bloody Mary. The drink was weak, watery and frankly small for the price. Definitely not worth the price. Did not meet the standards of the meal. Was our first experience. Will return to try other offerings. Pleased with our meals. Dessert size was tiny, but then only ordered one so not sure if it what we ordered or that is the serving size. There was a musician there, but never heard him in the hour and half we were there? !

Really enjoyed the food at 9 mile. Corn ribs were a nice starter, BBQ chicken leg - yum, salmon with the rice was fantastic. Rice was almost a risotto, then the lamb chop. Great food, a bit expensive, but location + great food = value

The Apple Salad and Shrimp and Grits were just about perfect! My friend had the pork and remarked on its flavor and said it was cooked perfectly, a good size, too. We also enjoyed our martinis.

The food was delicious. We shared a take on surf and turf (the scallops and the steak). The scallops were by far the highlight of the meal. We shared two desserts, thinking they would be small (the tart tatin and the basque cheesecake), but they were hearty portions. It's a great date night or special occasion spot.
