“Omg! Every time I’m here I love it more! Absolutely the BEST food, service, people. It’s all 10 stars! I used Suthern Cluck to cater a meal for 48 people (my son’s theater group) and it was raved about for weeks! They are the best at all they do and they do it with a superior execution! Chef’s kiss! 😘“

“Aqua Terra never fails to wow! We eat there often, but they really went above and beyond to make our son's rehearsal dinner perfect in every way. We could not have been more pleased with every aspect of the evening. Kelsea coordinated seemlessly with me every step of the way via e-mail. There is a significant food allergy concern with our daughter-in-law and she made sure that had been communicated well in advance to every member of the team. The downstairs room was set up exactly as expected with thoughtfulness and attention to detail. Our two servers were outstanding from the moment we arrived to decorate until the last of us left the building at the end of a wonderful night.The food, of course, was delicious from appetizers to main courses to desserts. Everyone raved about the entire evening! I highly recommend Aqua Terra for any meal you can enjoy there, but truly, they put this special night for the bride and groom over the top!“

“Stopped by for the first time ever today. I was greeted by Montgomery. I placed my order and carried on a conversation with Montgomery while i waited. He was a total sweetheart. I got back to the office and opened my food. Oh my....the biscuit and gravy was a very generous portion. It was delicious. It's been hard finding a place with that homemade sausage gravy. The grits were also a very generous portion. Not too runny and not too thick. Just perfect. Looking forward to going back and trying the BBQ.“

“The omelette bar needs real help, those ladies are gross and it looks filthy...I will not get an omelette because of this. The rest of the buffet is amazing. The bacon is always burned or under cooked and greasy. Hashbrowns are supposed to be 'brown' not half raw. The glass windows in the dining room are filthy, hand prints and smears all over them. Perhaps a 'how to clean glass' training session is needed. 🤔“

“5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely loved the authentic American breakfast vibe here! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed morning. One of the things I care about most is fresh, truly fresh orange juice, and they serve exactly that—freshly squeezed and delicious. The food is tasty, the service is friendly, and the overall experience feels genuine and cozy. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a real breakfast spot with great quality and a refreshing start to the day.“
