After a slow start with getting our drinks and App, then having to speak with the manager things flowed much smoothly afterwards. The food had such good flavor, 2 of the dishes had some short comings but the manager helped fix things. Our drinks were solid as well. The manager was very helpful and is definitely the reason we would come back when we are in the area again. They also sent over a free dessert to help celebrate our engagement. It was very sweet of them. They have an area for you to enjoy music and other rooms in case you want a quiet night.

I love the lighting, I personally tried the catfish and enjoyed it, The Bison was also pretty good. But the main thing I enjoyed was the Banana Pudding, it was honestly one of the best things I've eaten. It was gone way too quickly. And the servers were polite and on top of things.

I went here with a gift card from a guy I used to know. I flew across the USA and I went here for closure. I so badly wanted to hate this place and I didn’t. I loved it. My friend loved it. The drinks were delicious. The inside was tastefully decorated and quiet enough to have a convo. The food was delicious. Order the fried chicken and the elk meatloaf. Even if you hate meatloaf like me - it’s delicious. The calamari as an app was great. The place was lovely and the service was prompt and friendly. Then go across the street and listen to banjos.
