“A friend and I have regular dinner dates at Terra and we always have a great time! Tonight we had the shishito peppers, Chinese pork belly, snapper and the braised lamb pappardelle followed by the olive oil cake with sweet cream eggplant ice cream. We both agreed it was one of our top meals over the past several years at Terra and cannot wait until our next date! Quality, consistency and service are always top notch, and the one time we tried another restaurant for our date night we totally regretted it and went right back to Terra for our next meetup. Thank you Terra for being so reliable and delivering some of the best bites in the area, you are our gem!“

“Sunday brunch at Ruby Sunshine was a nice mix of sweet and savory. I ordered the chicken and waffles with a side of cheesy grits, while my friend chose the shrimp and grits. The chicken had a crisp coating, and the waffles were fluffy with lightly browned edges. The grits were creamy and went well with the savory dishes. The dining room had a busy brunch crowd, but the staff kept things moving without making us feel rushed.“

“Food was exceptionally good. My husband and I enjoyed our wine and the meal. Our server was very gracious and attentive. Our problem came when the bill arrived and a 18% gratuity was automatically charged. We pay tips in cash to our servers so they get them right away instead of being held for a week or two as so many places do. I requested to speak with MOD but she never came. We waited 15 minutes and upon leaving saw her out back smoking. Customers always came first for every restaurant, bar or business I worked for and with the quality of service the owner set up, that was what I expected. Very disappointing experience. BTW we tip 25-30% normally not 18, so don't put it on a check for 2 people. We had hoped to get the message to the owner for his consideration in this matter. Hopefully he reads reviews and this changes or my husband won't return.“

“My cousin and I visited on Black Friday. The bartenders were great and the vibes were on point. The lounge itself is so cute. Anna poured amazing drinks and kept the music flowing. The food... the food... Terrible! We both had the Ribeye and they were burnt and chewy.. How they managed that on a medium rare cook is beyond me. My caesar was good, but I doubt I'd ever order food from here again. I will definitely return for good drinks and vibes though.“

Green's Garners Ferry Cocktail Bar •

“Green’s is always great, and this location on Garners Ferry is no exception! It’s not quite as big as some of the other Green’s stores I’ve been to, but they still have any and every alcoholic beverage you could ask for. On the beer side, they have all the major imported, domestic, and IPA beers, as well as an excellent selection of local craft beers to go alongside them. On the spirits side, they have an equally impressive selection of wines (one of which my friend couldn’t find anywhere else) and liquors, to include every generic and/or high-dollar item that you’re looking for. Overall, I’ve always loved Green’s, and I’m happy to see that this location on Garners Ferry is up to snuff with the rest of them!“

“First time trying this restaurant, and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. It's definitely a vibe. Our server was friendly and attentive, although the food took a little longer than expected to come out.

I started with the Lychee Mimosa, which was delicious. I also ordered the Spicy Edamame, and it was excellent. For my main dish, I had the Spicy Miso Ramen. While it was good overall and had great flavor, I felt the broth was lacking a bit of richness, so it wasn't my favorite dish.

Overall, I had a good experience and would definitely come back to try more items on the menu.“
