    Beautiful restaurant! Outstanding service! Crab cake appetizer was amazing! Banana pudding is a MUST as is their Black Flower stout. We will most definitely be back.

    Went for brunch. Crab cake Benedict was pretty good. Being served a clearly burned chicken sandwich was disappointing. They did replace it (better), but honestly how was this served.

    The service was fantastic! There were very few people there so it was quiet. I had read the other reviews and expected it to be more impressive. Also I couldn't find the menu so didn't see it ahead of time. (Kept getting a 404 error.) I felt like the menu was limited and the food was okay but not what I expected after reading the reviews.

    WOW. We randomly chose this restaurant in downtown Durham. It was by far one of the BEST restaurants we have all ever been to. Favorites: OLD fashions! Beer! Cocktails! Pork chop! Salmon! Steak! Burger! Brussels sprouts! Fried Green Tomatoes! Definitely on the list of great places to eat in Durham! And….the family that owns it is just amazing. They are all so kind, welcoming and accommodating! Honestly we only took a few photos bc we had so much fun we forgot! If you love old fashions you really need to go grab one! Go support these awesome hardworking folks who truly care about the product they deliver!

    Great food and attentive service. Brussel sprouts were crispy and delicious and the cocktail menu was extensive and inventive. Also plenty of parking which can be hard in downtown Durham. We will be back for sure!
