This is one of the best meals I have had ever. The drinks are also fantastic. Its food with elevation but holding at its core warmth and heart. A must if you are in the area. And the service was simply superb. The chef and her hubby ( who is the butcher) have created something magical. They were even kind to received no issue with my service dog Mimi. Hope work brings me back to the area to come eat there again.

Made reservations for my friends birthday. Everything went smoothly. Limited menu options. Very farm to table kind of place. The mixed drinks were not very good. However, the food was good, and the dessert was even better. The atmosphere is very inviting and our waitress was very attentive. My friend and I took pictures and they came out nice.

Outstanding little gem down by the Hoochie River. Ambiance and service are both 5 star. Their spin on the oyster app is exquisite. The biscuits are to die for. My steak was perfectly prepared but was a bit steep at 69$. Only real downgrade here is the bar and how they prepared the pecan old fashioned.. smoked presentation is legit (slo mo video wouldn’t download) but it’s too diluted with the ice. Would recommend avoiding that drink if you identify as a bourbon drinker.

We were visiting family in Columbus, Georgia. We had a wonderful farm to table meals. The steaks and lamb chops were cooked and seasoned perfectly. The biscuit appetizers were delicious. We had our two year old granddaughter with us. Our waitress was so very family friendly and provided excellent service. Although busy, the noise level was just right.

Overall very good experience. The atmosphere was very nice and well done. Table setting was fancy. No specific dress attire required as some people were dressed up and some came in T-shirts. Sat indoors however they do offer seating on the patio and they even have mister fans during summer. The service was decent and friendly. Ordered the table biscuits which comes with a blueberry jam. Biscuits were great and I recommend. Seemed that most everyone around us ordered these. Also ordered the New York strip which was cooked to perfection and a generous portion. It is a $70 steak so it should be top tier. I don’t think it was worth $70 but this is a higher end restaurant.

We celebrated our anniversary at 11th and Bay and we were not disappointed. Perfect vibe/ atmosphere Perfect food Perfect drinks Perfect service The waitress was phenomenal. She made us feel welcomed and we loved that. She made wonderful suggestions and did not disappoint. I’m disappointed I forgot her name but she was the best/amazing . The food was soooo yummy. Very unique. Different experience. Our cheese cake was soooooo scrumptious as well. 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 Our drinks were delicious. I got a Bibb salad and added shrimp (our waitress helped me and I was not disappointed) This was the perfect spot to celebrate our anniversary. My date (my husband) loved his food as well. 10/10 Thanks so much for having us😌
