The Sunday brunch was excellent. Many different food choices from which to choose. The fried chicken and catfish were very good. I especially liked the stuffed French toast. I had made reservations on Open Table and we were seated exactly where I asked to be seated. We thought the music was to start at 10:30, but was told it was 12:30. Unfortunately we were gone by that time. We will definitely return though.

Exceptional meal - great flavor in everything. We had the fried chicken w/ creamed corn (would go back for the corn alone) and the shrimp and grits w/ waffles. Such a good combination! Highly recommend the shrimp and grits - and the Grilled Pear Old Fashioned was exceptional. Service was a touch slow to start, but improved. The atmosphere was nice - but the place was dead on the night we went.
