The service was amazing, and the atmosphere was perfect. we went for our anniversary and the place was top notch. The musician playing that night was perfect. He was loud enough to hear, but we were still able to carry on a conversation. The food was beautiful and tasty, I would have given it a 5. However, they overcooked the porkchop, and it was a little dry. All the other dishes were great.

The best item we ordered was the cornbread. The romaine salad was thrown together! The salad did not fit the description on the menu. I was so excited about tasting the deviled eggs. They were very cold, chicken topping was delicious but Nashville hot sauce was overpowering. Also, be prepared for a little wait on your food.The food is nothing to rave about. Our server was very good. The seating is questionable. The tables are so long you have to read lips to understand anything during your conversations. Also, you are sitting too close to other tables---very awkward. First and last time visit for me.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is nice and the deviled eggs were pretty good. However, our initial waiter was not very attentive. The manager did come to help us and a waitress in the area ended up helping us and she was amazing. Once our entrees came that is when it went downhill. Me and my friend ordered the Cajun crab and it was beyond salty. We only were able to take 1 small bite and had to send it back. The manager came and took the items back and asked us if we wanted replacements. We did receive 2 desserts of our choice and they were pretty good. My only suggestion is that they have the cooks not overcook the sauces because on the fig pudding the sauce tasted bitter almost burnt. Unfortunately, we will not be back even with the managers efforts. If you visit I suggest not ordering the Cajun crab.

This is located in the hotel if you couldn't find it lol. Really nice vibe and atmosphere. Great service. Food is freshly made therefore needs to be really patient with it. We got a niner burger and chicken waffle for $36 plus tax. Quite pricey for the amount of food. But it is in a fancy hotel. Just happened to need a quick brunch without going too far.

My wife and I went there this morning for our 2nd year wedding anniversary. We were honestly surprised by how nice the inside of the restaurant was. The dcor was really nice and the ambience was perfect. The table we sat at was huge and the seats were extremely comfortable. We ordered the Nashville hot deviled eggs as an appetizer, we had the buttermilk chicken and waffles and the southern benedict. For the most part the food was pretty good. I really enjoyed the peach chutney on top of the chicken. My one big complaint was the poached eggs on the benedict were vastly overcooked. The whole point of a poached egg is for it to run on top of the food after you break it open. These eggs were hard boiled and missed the mark. The potatoes were amazing, nice and crunchy. Our only other complaint was that was asked our server twice for a second cup of coffee and it never came. Overall, good spot and we will be back to try some cocktails and the dinner menu.
