Southern Restaurants near Highlands

“What was unique about Madison's was the fact that items that would ordinarily seem very simple on a menu are taken to the next level.For example, when I was there they had a steak wrap as a special. It was extremely flavorful and tender. My wife had chicken salad on a croissant, or nearly. This seems like the kind of thing you could get in the grocery store. However, it was clearly made using a unique recipe and it couldn't have been higher quality.My advice would be, if items on the menu seem commonplace, do not take them at face value.“

“My best friend, who also happens to be my wife, had the stuffed chicken breast and could not stop commenting about how great it was. It came with mashed potatoes, green beans and stewed apples. She actually said it was the best meal she had ever had. And that is coming from a great cook! I had the special ribeye which was delicious and perfectly cooked medium rare just as I had ordered. Our server Joe(Joseph) was very attentive and knowledgeable but not hovering. The Orchard is one of our all time favorite restaurants and we have never been disappointed with the food, service or ambiance no matter where we were seated.“

“This is a great BBQ Restaurant with excellent service and selection. Although the prices were a bit high, we were not disappointed with the portion sizes or the great service. They do a great job of taking your order as you come in, before you seat yourself, so the process is quick and efficient. The food came out quickly and was perfectly presented. The brisket, fried okra, potato salad looked spot-on and delicious. We also ordered fried pickles as an appetizer and were delighted by the portion size (though they had a bit too much breading and were sliced a bit too thin to allow for the flavor or the pickle to be enjoyed over the fried breading).The brisket had was a good portion, and had a bit of fat to provide a good amount of moisture, but parts were a bit dry. The fried okra was very good with a mustard dipping sauce. The potato salad was quite good as well.“
