Went with a party of 8 and Brittany took great care of us. Service was impeccable! I got a daily special that was outrageously delicious. Beer was cold and the shrimp peeled easily ahead of the meal. I'll absolutely be back!

Best restaurant we ate on our trip.

A friend recommended this place, and we understand why. The service was great, and the food was outstanding. Crab cakes and shrimp and grits were awesome. The shrimp and grits could have been a little bigger portion, but other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed everything.

The food is mostly quite good. The building itself is historical and interesting, but be sure to make reservations. I went with a group, and people really loved the bucket and the tuna bites. The fried oysters were honestly disappointing, but the pizzas were good. The Bailey's chocolate tart was incredibly good! The vegetarian options are very limited.Vegetarian options: The vegetarian options are quite limited- pizzas, salad, fries, dessert. The dessert and pizzas are good, just know that's what you're in for.

Got takeout for dinner tonight ,here from Richmond . I have ate lunch there many times and was happy, but dinner tonight except for meat went in the trash. And a 15% surcharge over 50$ takeout! Bidenomics has killed the resturant industry, smaller portions etc
