Incredible made from scratch farm fresh foods. Was there twice during my week stay and my servers, Grace & Randi, were great and made the experience wonderful for my groups.
Food and portions outstanding!
Two dishes we had were exquisite - those types of dishes where it becomes very clear a chef is developing and executing the recipe. And the bartender effortlessly curated one of the better dining experiences I've ever had - from the bar! Great spot. Highly recommend.

King & Rye offers a limited menu with delicious food and a nice atmosphere. Prices are high but expected. Their Cheese tray is great, especially for blue cheese lovers. The food quality is mixed, with some dishes shining like the Deviled egg app, while others like the crabcake benedict have been disappointing. Recent reviews highlight the superb food, with guests raving about the amazing mussels and the perfectly cooked sirloin, seasoned just right. The restaurant's southern-inspired menu features excellent options like the blackened strip loin and must-try biscuits, while the pimento mac & cheese with added crawfish has also received praise. The atmosphere can vary from a relaxed indoor setting to a lively outdoor courtyard for brunch, and it was noted that the atmosphere was particularly lively during Restaurant Week. The staff is generally attentive and friendly, with specific servers being commended for their kindness and helpful recommendations. Despite some past issues with reservations and sudden closures, King & Rye is considered one of the better dining options in the area, making it a highly recommended spot for locals and visitors alike. Recent reviews mention a quiet outdoor setting and good food, with service that can be busy and short-staffed but still attentive. Guests enjoyed the restaurant week menu, noting hefty portions and well-presented dishes like the deviled eggs, pan seared trout, and Brussels sprouts. The atmosphere was sometimes dark near the patio, but overall, the experience was positive with great suggestions from servers and enjoyable meals.
