I've been wanting to eat here for quite some time, they didn't disappoint. Exceptional service, exceptional food. Presentation, food/cocktail quality, is all worth it. The space is small and intimate. I wouldn't want it to be anymore spacious. If you have to wait, it's worth it. Well

Had a great dinner experience here last night! There were six of us and we ordered just about everything on the menu! Everything from the salads and beet hummus (Don’t shy away from this even if you don’t like beets because it’s healthy and delicious) to the wings and burgers everything was off the chain delicious. Jake offered top notch service and never forgot even one request. Maddy’s drinks are always the best (her Dirty and Espresso Martinis rock). Every table in the place and every bar seat was occupied the majority of the time we were there which is a testament to how good it is. Everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed their meal and experience. Highly recommend!

If you're looking for a unique dining experience, you might want to check out this restaurant. Although the menu is not expansive, all the dish options are great. The restaurant has a distinctive atmosphere, with a small dining area consisting of only a few tables and a bar. During peak hours, the place can get pretty loud, but it's not unbearable. You may experience some wait during busy hours, but the wait is worth it. Our waitress was extremely friendly and made arrangements in the restaurant to accommodate a party of 3. I highly recommend the "Mojo Pork" sandwich, which was perfectly balanced with flavor, and the locally sourced "Charleston Bread" complemented the dish perfectly. Overall, I believe this restaurant is definitely worth a visit!Parking: Limited parking directly adjacent to the bottom floor/rear patio area.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to enter the restaurant off of Bridge Rd. It may be difficult to navigate the small restaurant in a wheelchair.

Great Service, Great Food. Well Lite, and inviting atmosphere. Located on Bridge Road, it is convenient to my house. The area is growing as it should. Thanks to the staff at the Fernbank.

First time here and I will be back! Especially since I can walk home The atmosphere is very cozy. Service was excellent and the food was even better! Seems to be a popular place as it filled up quickly after 5 pm.

My girlfriend and I went during Restaurant Week and it was incredible! One of the owners, Mike, really made our dinner enjoyable and he came to check in and chat with us several times. We will be back!

We visited for Restaurant Week, so the menu was limited. I really had mixed feelings about the place/meal and found it hard to give star ratings, so I erred on the generous side. We all liked our meals, but none of us were so enthused that we would order the same thing again. The fries were the best part. The service was great, but the place is very small and loud, making it hard to have a conversation. Seems like it would be a good place for lunch, but they don't seem to be open for lunch.

We were there last night with neighbors for Restaurant Week. They were crowded, but couldn't have been nicer. We enjoyed our delicious meals. Parking is an issue, but that's true for most Bridge Road restaurants. Give 'em a try. ?

Just don't. Bland food, stale buns, unreasonably high prices. Crappy house cab will cost you $18 Skip it and save your money.

Food was great but not all servers are the same. I saw one server giving excellent service. We had a guy completely for get about us. Neet atmosphere. Great potential but I realize it's hard to find and keep good people. Also if you want to order take out forget about it. I have called on 15 different occasions at different times of the day during hours of operation. They Never Answer the phone. The answer machine doesn't even say the name of the restaurant.
