    Food was incredible, the biscuits are a must have ! We also got the wings, brisket Mac and cheese, green salad, and the beignets. Everything was excellent. I highly recommend the heatwave for a drink if you like a little spice , very good.

    I visited on Valentine’s Day and loved the cozy ambiance with beautiful plant decorations. I ordered the 3 Valentine’s specials: the beet gnocchi, beet burrata, and cod dish, along with the cooked oysters. All were delicious though I was a bit disappointed with the beet burrata, as it had a very tiny amount of cubed beets and at first believed they forgot the beets on the dish. For dessert I had the tiramisu which was fantastic!

    Great overall experience. We went for an early Valentine’s Day dinner and had their prix fixe menu for the holiday. Cocktails were perfect, ambiance was fun and flirty and the service was impeccable. Our server was very knowledgeable about the wine list and helped us pick out a great bottle of white wine we had never tried before. The first of the three appetizers was an interesting take on a salad course that wasn’t our favorite but everything to follow was spectacular. Also, for the south end, I thought pricing was reasonable. We will be back.
