This Southern spot is a total treat! The food is great, but the strawberry shortcake really steals the show. Fresh strawberries, soft cake, and whipped cream make it the perfect sweet ending to your meal. Highly recommend!

Elated this place is just a hop skip & a jump away! Promptly seated, nice lighting & what I call country chic American decor. I ordered the Republic salad with both the house regular ranch & jalapeño ranch as I was a tad concerned the jalapeño would be too spicy. It was superb & though not too spicy, it did pack a slight heat build up after multiple bites. The grilled chicken on top was perfectly season & tasty! Hubs got the arugula salad w/ fillet Marsala with asparagus & what they called glazed sweet potatoes. I say that cuz though we're out of this world delicious, we both agreed they were yams not sweet potatoes. His filet mignon was cooked to a perfect medium. We shall return!

So Christmas Eve and in town with Family and they want to go to their favorite place for lunch, Which we learned has been closed since the PANDEMIC On Tuesdays until today. I had perused the menus online before hand and the pics of the dishes all looked very appetizing. But still wasn't sure exactly what I was getting. We had reservations and were promptly seated on time. The restaurant wasn't very full but that changed pretty quickly as family's streamed in after the lunch on this mild Christmas Eve afternoon. The inside is a low light open dining room with real wood tables, 4 tops, and booths. Lovely flatware and cloth napkins. Our waiter came promptly and took our drink orders and we looked at the menus. One sheet, printed front and back ... I forgot to take pics... but go online because the beautiful pics of the food online, are omitted on the menus handed out. So I had the grilled chicken with grilled vegetables and sweet potatoes. I also had a CUP of Chicken and Sausage Gumbo. I started both before I took my pics, I was particularly hungry this day and kept forgetting to snap them! So the gumbo was good, it had that nice "muddy" taste from the first spoonful.' It was lacking in veg, I found a couple of tiny pieces of celery in it .. but nary a bell pepper or onion, I think maybe they just cooked away? It would have been better if it had had some seafood, especially shrimp, I believe real gumbo has some seafood, but it was already $8 for the cup and I'm sorry I just didn't think it was worth another $8 just to add shrimp to a cup. The grilled chicken was grilled well, a little dry, and had lots of spice but lacked flavor somehow? It was more like a blackened and grilled breast. The homemade BBQ sauce definitely was needed to help it out. The "grilled" vegetables, and I say that because these didn't appear to be grilled. None of them bared any grill markings. They seemed to have the same spice as the chicken and they were oily like they had been saute'd in butter or oil. A shake or two of salt helped them. I loved the combination of vegetables they chose and looked forward to them being GRILLED. So the FAMOUS MAGIC MELTING/pudding/Flan whatever you use to describe them, Sweet Potatoes... they are worth all the HYPE! and they were the highlight of my meal! Sweet, warm and pudding soft with seems to be a brown sugar glaze? Heavenly! My dining partners had a range of things from a BLAT (bacon,lettuce Avocado, Tomato) with fries and he HOOVERED it! Not a spec left and said the bacon was perfect. Another had the lasagna and got a side salad and it was beautiful but huge. Full of frisée, lettuces, tomatoes and all kinds of stuff. I should have took a pic! He said it was fantastic. But the lasagna came and it was a bit odd... he thought it was weird the sausage was a link on the side instead of inside the lasagna. He only ate about half of it... said he didn't like it much but took the rest of it home. One had the chicken piccata with sides and loved everything. So all in all for me this place is hit and miss. But I would return again for the sweet potatoes and I want to try what looks like in the pics online home made onion rings. And they have amazing sounding seafood dishes... I have my EYE on the Pasta Sterling for next time!

Our first time visit. Food was great! Hubby had the chicken fried steak with jalapeño bacon Mac n cheese and a piece of cornbread. Jalapeños bacon Mac was tasty, creamy and perfectly cheesy. The chicken fried steak was crispy and not greasy at all. He thoroughly enjoyed his cornbread. He said it was almost like a dessert. I had the grilled shrimp tacos with chips and tacos. The salsa and the jalapeño cream sauce, both delish! Service was great! Hostess was very nice and seated us pretty quickly. Everyone was friendly. Our server, Gabe, was helpful and made suggestions, very attentive to our needs and made sure to refill our drinks. Ambiance was great! A casual restaurant with big leather booths and nice sized tables. They have a full service bar. Cocktails looked good. We didn't order any this day, but we will next time. Vibe is cool, and relaxing. Large TVs over the bar and hung around in areas to allow for watching the game. Restaurant was very clean! Great place for a lunch or dinner. Go there, I recommend!

I got take out and it was very fast. they gave me an accurate time waiting period. The worker was helpful and immediately recognized i was waiting for togo. i like that the kitchen separates the chicken and dressing from the salad, so i can assemble at home. It keeps the lettuce fresh :) . the chicken was seasoned very well, delicious! overall easy dinner night vibe.

I took my Dad here twice in one week as he was visiting from out of town and he went crazy for the food, service and location. Thank you Bella and Darnell for making my veteran Dads visits so wonderful. This will for sure be one of our new regular spots for sure.
