The food is always amazing! The service is great. The hostess (older) could take a lesson in hospitality, graciousness, and manners.

My favorite Athens restaurant. And I always get the same meal but change up the appetizers when sitting at their fun bar. It's a nice atmosphere especially on game days or the Sunday Brunch the day after the game. (Make reservation in advance for Brunch). Their steaks are amazing but I can't pass up the best pecan crusted trout I've ever had. It's so fresh and mild. No fishy taste. And the cheese grits are amazing. If you're just in town and want to watch a game the bar has the best bartenders and a lot of seating with multi TVS. You can eat at the bar and watch a game with friendly locals. Highly recommend. Reservations are suggested for Game days.

An enjoyable dining atmosphere with good food. Negatives are that the portions were very small for the expensive price. I think they could serve more than a scant cup of grits or greens as a side. I left feeling hungry but didn't want to spend more at their prices. Service was kinda meh, too.

Five stars today -because this month I had the best salmon I have eaten in Athens in a long time! Thanks chef! Food:4/5 Other than the salmon (which was 5 star) they specialize in southern comfort food -which is very good (4 star) Vegetables and grits are standard fare & good. Salads are fresh. Service -pleasant and efficient. I think possibly ? they suffer from a slight shortage of cooks and servers -like many other restaurants in town, because the food was a little slow in coming and being served-but it was good and hot when it arrived and the servers were pleasant, & helpful, and got the orders right. Location-conveniently located off Broad St/ Atlanta highway Usually the parking is adequate in their private lot. Facility-not new, but well kept Bathrooms are clean There is a small waiting area inside the front door, which is nice when it's crowded during inclement weather. There are outside tables. If there is a long wait you can walk next door to shop in a pleasant home decor store during the daytime.
