A bright and clean space. Very family friendly. The wait staff is friendly and attentive without being cloying. They suggested fresh oysters and my spouse quite liked them. I had a mixed cocktail (crushed velvet) that tasted good and didn't burn my throat on the way down. I was there for their Thanksgiving dinner: moist turkey, flavorful dressing, and excellent peacan pie. Everything else was what you'd expect from mashed potatoes, green beans, and gravy.
