    This was our first visit and we were not disappointed! Food was delicious and portions were large. Our party ordered chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits and panko breaded chicken. We all loved our dishes! Oh and you must order the tear and share garlic bread - phenomenal! Great new restaurant option near downtown. Can't wait to go back!

    Food was excellent, and our waitress was very helpful. They did a great job developing this restaurant in the Kerns bakery.

    Took us a while to get our food... granted, it was Mother's Day, but it still took nearly an hour after being seated. Once we got our food, it was very good.

    The food was really good! We both had the French Toast, Eggs & Sausage. They have a very good variety of adult beverages as well. The service is friendly but a little slow, which was to be expected with them just being open a few days.
