Description

Nestled by the river, this restaurant offers a picturesque atmosphere, yet diners have reported inconsistent experiences. While some revel in delicious dishes like fried green tomatoes and prime rib, others have found the food disappointing, with issues such as insufficient portions and lackluster flavors. Service tends to be sluggish and inattentive, leading to frustrations over long waits and inaccurate orders. Though some customers appreciate the friendly welcome and certain standout meals, many left feeling that the overall experience fell short of expectations. The potential is evident, but improvements are needed to ensure a more satisfying visit.

We will never go back there again. Wife and I went yesterday for lunch and the sign said Wait to be seated. After standing there for 2 minutes a guy behind the counter said someone will be right with us. So after standing there another 2 minutes he finallywalked over an sat us at a table. He ask us what we wanted to drink and brings us our drinks. Then we sat there for 10 minutes(I timed it) with waitress and waiters walking around us. I then asked a waitress if someone was going to take our order and shesaid she would find out who our waitress was. She then comes back and tells us that we were not marked on their seating sheet sothat?s why no one came to take our order. But said she would with an attitude like she was doing us a favor by taking our order.I ordered a fish poboy and can tell you I had to look for the fish. More bread than anything. Service and Food Sucks. Moneyrip-off. And was very disappointed. Will not return or tell anyone to go there.

Very good overall, but there’s room for improvement. The grilled prime rib was tender and seasoned perfectly. The twice-baked cheese and shrimp potato, however, was bland and would be better without the shrimp—perhaps the shrimp could be served with the entrée instead. The salads were decent but served warm; they would be better presented on chilled plates. Overall, a good dining experience.

I called in a pick-up order, and all I can say is that I'm completely disappointed. When I got home, I noticed my order wasn't right. I called to let the manager know that I received the wrong side with my steak, and the manager could careless. My steak looks like road kill, something I wouldn't serve my dog! Don't waste your money go somewhere else.
