I had guests come from Myrtle Beach and I wanted to bring them to your restaurant. When wearrived the greeter told us that the outside was 1st come, 1st serve. I looked outside at the patio and saw at least 2 opentables. When I told her that she said no you didn 't . I was embarrassed in front of my guests. We stayed anyway and dinedinside. I suggest if a customer reserves outdoor dining, it should be honored. Why would you allow people to sit outside whenthey don 't make a reservation when another customer took the time to reserve it. This could be a reason to find anotherrestaurant that honors a reservation. I was not informed that it was 1st come, 1st served when I called in thereservation. Very disappointed

The appetizers were good (fresh oysters on the half shell and brussel sprouts) and my husband's chickensandwich was huge. He had tater tots that were far better than I ever remember them being as a kid!
