    The food was outstanding. We had for starters the fried oysters and the shrimp cocktail Both were great! We wanted the fried flounder but they were out until tomorrow. So we had the Tomahawk Steak and the Halibut and they were outstanding also. The waiter was great too. I believe his name was Jason. The manager came over to see if we were happily satisfied and we were. We’ll be back soon! Don’t disappoint please!

    Our food was absolutely incredible. For the first course we had the shrimp, mussels, and meatballs. All were cooked and seasoned to perfection. For my entree I got the beef short ribs and my friends both got the ravioli. The short ribs were so tender and paired perfectly with the mashed potatoes and miso sauce. Both of my friends finished their ravioli and had rave reviews. We finished off with the Sweet Home Carolina dessert, which was very rich and tasted a lot like a snickers bar. Our server, Basil, was very attentive and knowledgeable. We will definitely be coming back!
