    Food was very good. The overhead AC vent drained in our drinks from condensation but the restaurant made up for it. We moved the table and refreshed the drinks. Great having the game on! The cocktails were wonderful and the oysters were perfect! Definitely coming back!

    Decent food and service. The Lobster and Grits special was delicious. Perfect for solo-dining.

    The oysters were as great as all of the reviews say that they are. We got the Panko Fried with the “Cajun” caviar. Service was excellent. I think that the waiter’s name was Jordan. The manager passed by a few times to check on us. We enjoyed the entrees. Just wish that they had valet parking or a better lot. We ended up having to walk from up a dim lit street. Other than that, we will definitely come back.
