    Great and innovative food. One of our regular favorite spots. The she crab soup was what brought us in especially. The cobra and the filet entrees were also excellent. Great service as always.

    Tavvi took great care of us, and the Food was REALLY GOOD… 2 of the 4 dishes Delicious! We wish there was a 4.5 star rating, as 5Star means it couldn’t be better. The new patio area looks great! See them again soon!

    We are regulars of Distilled enjoying the experience, friendliness of staff, amd quality of food! Last night the only exception was the timeliness of getting service, drinks were very slow, food was slightly better! Their new enclosed porch was comfortable and lovely. We will continue our regular visits knowing this was just a one off!
