Omg. I can’t put into words how amazing this place is. Great food, great vibes and AMAZING food. Can’t wait to go back!!
The flavor combinations, the atmosphere, the great service, and the amazing staff make you want to come back time and time again...
My husband and I had dinner here on Saturday July 20th. We had the pistachio arugula pesto with bread and the sweet potato butter with bread to start. Both were amazing! For dinner I had the pork chop, smashed potatoes and grilled squash and zucchini. It was all amazing! My husband had the pan seared sea scallops and his was amazing as well! The presentation of all plates was beautiful! This is by far the best restaurant we went to in Southport! Highly recommended!
