the bartender Ashley was really welcoming, I'm not a big drinker and she helped me explore options and finally found something I like. very patient with me and will definitely go back
went for the third time last night, the previous two times have been acceptable, not amazing but by no means bad but tonight, wow. 1st Sara our server was top notch, she had a good support team and she checked on us enough but not too much, a real skill for a server. 2nd I got the Cajun Snapper and good lord was this amazing. it had all the Cajun Flavor with no heat. I am a person that replies to my wife when she asks how the food is, "it's fine." almost everywhere we eat. I usually think restaurant food in Woodbury is Wildly Mediocre, but this Snapper was amazing. I literally want to have some more in the morning. 3rd my wife can handle spicy food and she loved the hot chicken sandwich. Be warned this is not MN hot, this is real heat. I might have my stomach lining melt if I tried it but this girl can eat super hots so if she says it has a kick it has a kick. 4th though the place was packed around 6:30, there was a little space at the bar and we were sat in under 20 minutes. Great experience, I would go again.
Last evening was our first time enjoying this establishment but decided to do takeout. I was so pleasantly surprised at the welcoming atmosphere when I walked in I must say. Loved the decor and staff that welcomed me. My order was ready right on the minute I had stated for pick up time. We had ordered 2 of the Brisket entrees along with cheese curds. The taste was amazing but I have to say the meat was a little too done for a brisket and a little dry. Would love to try it again tho in the future and hope it won't be quite as dry. The curds were delicious with that amazing dipping sauce!

Great food and service. Anitria was a phenomenal server.
This is a low quality eatery that’s trying to be an upscale trendy place to eat. Food was poor at best. Bacon not cooked, eggs were subpar and the potato cubes tasted very bad. Could not even eat them. High prices for poor quality food with a bunch of screaming kids running all over the place. Never going there again.

20% gratuity charge, 3% service charge. Extra charge for a party of more than 5 people, no warning on that when we made reservations. Waitress was not friendly and did not tend to us. No refills for almost 2 hours. One person in our party was given something completely different than ordered and wasn’t given her correct food until after everyone else had finished eating.

We came around 3 PM on a Saturday afternoon. It was *not* busy and there seemed to be plenty of staff. After a long wait, our waitress finally came. We asked to sample one of the beers before ordering. She gladly agreed and left. Then we waited. And waited. And waited. Finally, another woman (we assumed was the manager) brought the samples to us. When she came, I asked if she could be our waitress, but she said, no, that the other waitress was busy but would come. After some time, our original waitress came back and took our drink orders and left. Shortly after she left, we saw that our two beers had been poured at the bar. However, our waitress had disappeared again and once again we waited. And waited. And waited. And waited. And then decided to leave. As we got up to leave, we saw the other woman (manager?) go over to get our drinks. My wife shook her head signaling no. We'd had enough.

The atmosphere is cool and very modern! We tried the fried green tomatoes which were spicy but delicious! The chicken and waffles were great too. Both of our cocktails were well made! I'll definitely be back.

The service and atmosphere is great, but the food is not. They dump a crap ton of corn on almost every dish that says it has corn, the crab boil sauce taste like marinara sauce, the fried pickles are too salty.

Went for a nice meal since I was gifted a gift card. The fried green tomatoes were outstanding, definitely the best choice on the menu. Next we got the half bird and chicken with waffles. I'm picky with my Belgian waffles and these were flavorful and light , not hard and difficult to knife through. We had the sides collard greens and sweet potatoes with pomegranates, but the menu had a mistake and it was raisins and not poms. Collard greens I would pass on next time as they were tough and not low cooked in juice all day. The sweet potatoes we thought would be sweet, but they were outstanding and not sweet, the walnuts on top weren't over cooked and bitter, but rather savory and decidant. The fried chicken was juicy and salty. Adding a little waffle or syrup was perfect for that salty sweet combo. Finally, I highly recommend washing it all down with a debutante cocktail. I hate floral in my food, but no lavender could be tasted and the elderberry flower made a good addition. Get here early because for good reasons it's packed.
Parking: Fireplace is on during the winter to keep that MN cold breeze out when new guests walk in.

Had the pork belly burnt ends and the jambalaya. Food was beyond my expectations. Just the right about it smoke flavor in the meats. Highly recommend this place.

We were here for the first time celebrating our wedding anniversary.
We reserved a table online which was super simple.
The atmosphere is wonderful and our service was amazing!
The food was so good that I ended up doing a take out order the very next week. ?
