My wife and I on date nights like to try new places.. We had watched a review on Youtube regarding this place and decided to give it a try... The atmosphere is nice. they were not super busy but they were understaffed. My wife and I decided to order 2 drinks, 2 salads and a bunch of appetizers.... Our drinks took forever it turns out they were trying to locate all the ingredients for one of them that was on their menu.
So,,, Fried Green tomatoes had absolutely no flavor whatsoever. The cheese had flavor but the tomatoes did not.
I go the cob salad. The dressing had no flavor at all. It was so mute I requested Ranch dressing which surprisingly also had no flavor.. The waiter was nice and removed it from our bill as it had no flavor whatsoever.
The bruschetta was ok, the fried deviled eggs were decent.
I would say this place has protentional as they really are just lacking staff and flavor... The presentation is nice but I come for the food not how it looks.
Sorry to write negative reviews but unfortunately I can only assume that either it was a bad night or the review we saw on Youtube was paid.

The service here was what other restaurants need to model. Thank you Nate, for balancing the bar and tables! They were so attentive and pleasant. Which made my dining experience even better. The drinks and the food are top tier! Definitely a gem!

Today was our first visit since this new restaurant came in the area. We enjoyed sitting outside, wish more people to appreciate the outdoor tables! The menu was challenging, as were the prices. But the food was good, sandwich with Gouda and apples, well proportionated, house salad fresh but slightly overdressed, fish and chips - overpriced, the Toffee dessert- delicious! My personal opinion is that if the menu could be simplified, redo. the prices, if this place becomes more like a local place to gather, more people will be attached to it!

We had a great date night. It wasn't too crowded and $3 small plates for happy hour. Great option for a tapas style dinner.

Chumpy menu. Nothing exciting. Meaty with not much for vegetarians. Good place for a guy with a pick up truck that has a ball cap turned around thinking he is 16.
My husband called and made reservations for 7:30 pm for the two of us, it was a special night. We left our home in Sanford at 7pm so we would be a little early. Unfortunately, there was a bad accident on the bridge of 417 and when we realized we were actually going to be late, he attempted to call the restaurant to let them know. It went to voicemail and the voicemail was full. We arrived at 7:40 ish and walked in the wrong door and ran into the hostess who just looked at me blankly when I asked her where we check in. We just followed her to the main entrance and there were other people waiting to be checked in. When it was our time to check in I apologized for being late, explained the accident and she replied with if we aren’t here within 15 minutes grace time then they let our table go and now there are other people in front of us and the wait is 30 minutes because the kitchen is really backed up. Now mind you, no one was seated while we were waiting to be checked in and when she looked at the time it was 7:46 so I’m not sure who she let our table go to. She knew we were there within the grace period that she stated they allowed. She saw we had gift bags and could have cared less it was a special night. My husband then asked her if we sat at the bar, if we could be served food there and her response was that the kitchen was really backed up… is that a yes? A no? Again, just gave us a blank stare. Such horrible service! Never again!

Originally, I was inclined to give a positive review for this place during my first visit here. Seemed to have good food, seemed to have good service. I decided to withhold judgement until my mom and I went to eat together.
I was glad that I didn't post that review. Because our experience in my second visit (and her first) was miserable. Despite the fact that we called in for a reservation at 7PM with several hours ahead of time, we ended up waiting an entire hour for our food. An entire hour for two plates. Not even appetizers, and just a single negroni for a drink. The acting manager at the time tried to placate us at the 8PM mark and we later got our food ten minutes later - my sandwich was great, her fish was lukewarm.
He also offered us dessert on the house. Which would've been alright and soothed things... But we waited for another forty minutes without receiving it.
Our waitress was also extremely inattentive. We didn't hear from her for nearly forty minutes when it came to the food, didn't provide any info as to what was going on, whether it be our plates or the dessert. We had to ask the bar staff and other waiters to find her, and they couldn't help because apparently she was the only one that could give us our receipt.
I don't know who is running things, but when your service and kitchen is so messed up that you have your clients waiting for nearly a straight hour without your orders and even more than half an hour for the dessert that was supposed to be compensating for the mess-up in the first two orders, something is horribly, horribly wrong with the place.

Wonderful food! Our party got salads and they were good (especially the blackened chicken).
The atmosphere is fine, but the music choice was interesting…. Playing “We Will Rock You” loudly at 6pm on a Saturday is an interesting decision for a place like this. Also one waiter was loudly whistling while working and that’s fine but also doesn’t add any positive to the dining experience.
I hope this restaurant is able to stay afloat since there were very few patrons on a Saturday evening.

I really want to like this place but like the other two businesses at this exact location, it's a little disappointing. I always try something simple on my first visit. So, I got the pub burger. Ordered medium well and it was slightly undercooked. No, I never send dishes back. You shouldn't either. I won't get into why.
The burger lacked flavor, was overly greasy and I paid for it later. Was up all night sick to my stomach.
The bun seemed typical, fresh from the freezer same with the sweet potato fries.
The sweet tea I ordered was more like tea flavored water.
Staff is friendly and great, not their fault the food is subpar for the price you pay.
Best of luck, no need for a revisit. Sad as I live a mile away.
