    We’re thrilled to have this beautiful restaurant nearby!! Not only does it perfectly capture the Hill Country charm with a warm, welcoming staff, a spacious open patio with huge stone fireplaces and an inviting, tastefully decorated dining area, but the menu and “whiskey bible” are truly excellent. The variety of steaks and Gulf Coast seafood put a fine flair on comfort food! We definitely will return soon!!

    We made a reservation and were seated promptly. The menu has lots of variety for everyone’s taste. We all enjoyed the queso and chips.everything we got was great. My filet was tender and cooked to perfection. The restaurant is beautiful. Happy to have them in the area.

    Absolutely a delightful evening! Our server Allison was efficient and friendly. The menu was full of great choices and the ambiance was inviting. We ordered the blackberry cobbler for dessert and although it was delicious it didn’t have a crust or crumble. Other than that we will definitely be back!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟

    Great ambiance with an upscale casual Hill Country feel. Keith was our server and he was a wealth of knowledge and had great recommendations. We had the calamari as a starter (interesting and delicious twist p. presentation) and then enjoyed the flounder, bacon wrapped jumbo shrimp along with a few sides. Mashed potatoes and cole slaw were generous portions and basic but good but Inloces the creamed corn and spinach side which doesn’t sound harmonious and yet it was my favorite. Of course, we had to have whiskey cocktails and enjoyed old fashioneds, one frozen, one rocks. Friends had a Driftwood Dove and Peach Be With You. Their whiskey offering is unrivaled and also an extensive wine list. So much left to try -we can’t wait to go back!

    What a fabulous new place to eat. The ambience, food and staff felt like we were in a big city restaurant. The owners knocked it out of the park and clearly know how to run things. The food was delish, especially the salmon. Our waiter was Carlos, he by far has perfected his trade. Impeccable service! It is wonderful having a posh, chic place to dine in the hill country. We definitely will be back.
