But...No cornbread? Otherwise, very nice place and food!
Enjoyed the place. It broke up our trip to sit down and have a nice relaxing meal. Clothe table Clothes nice silverware and ambiance. After eating we walked around downtown, nice little shops.
The staff here is fantastic—welcoming, attentive, and genuinely pleasant throughout our meal.
