    Dinner was outstanding and our server, Clay, was even better. The Green Chile Mac & Cheese side was very unique and our steak was done to perfection.

    We enjoyed the restaurant. We we were seated was right in front of the front door and there was a constant draft where we were seating as the double doors were open. Other than that service was very good, food was made as requested and we had a very nice dinner. Our server Thomas was very good, attentive, but not bothersome.

    Came for the burger, which was great, if not a tad bit salty.

    Our waiter was very slow. Other tables came and left before we ever had our food. Had to flag him down for more water or anything we needed. Food was great.

    I had the Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderlion it was perfectly cooked and the flavors with the pablano grits and charred corn were amazing. My husband had the Duroc Pork Chop and loved it.
