    We took advantage of their Sunday night special, which was an amazing bottle of wine with an amazing ribeye steak. It was a really good value and wow, was it tasteful. We shared the brussels sprouts at our table. We had shrimp and grits, which was amazing the fried chicken, which is amazing and as I already said the ribeye. We will definitely be back. The manager was very helpful. It was a nice intimate experience.

    Fantastic experience overall. Food was exquisite, thoughtful and well composed. Truly couldn’t have asked for a better meal. Drink selection didn’t feel as up to par as the food menu. Basic options. Bathroom is up an entire flight of winding stairs which is fine, but be cautious in heels. They were out of toilet paper, so that felt overlooked. Bar with live music ramped up toward the end of our dinner but wasn’t overly loud and soundly lively as we were exiting.
