We had the Prime Brisket, Smoked Blue Crab Rangoon, Potato Salad, Smash Cucumbers and shared. Honestly I wish I would have not had to share the Prime Brisket. Everything was beyond delightful! The owners were so warm and friendly!! I can't wait to go back. I hope they are able to open a restaurant at some point! The Spilt Milk bar is beautiful.
