The hostess gave off the new-to-food service vibe, which is fine. I went alone during peak time, Saturday7pm. My waitress was kind and attentive. The menu is small with all the Southern and Cajun staples which is probably a goodidea for a new restaurant). I was 1 of 4 tables dining-in at the time with the manager making rounds with the patrons. Maybeit was Johnny , who knows because he never introduced himself to me. He was, however, very friendly with the 3 OTHER tables. Iwas anticipating at least a hello but it never happened. Perhaps it was for the better; he and the people closest to me weretalking politics a topic of conversation that makes me gag nowadays). What will I have to drink? Water with lemon, please.What? No more lemons? Ok, just the water Got the tea later, which was actually good and not watered down). I ordered the friedpickles for appetizer. They were delicious but....there were way too many overly-fried bits on the bottom. For dinner, I orderedthe chicken-fried steak with mashed potatoes and green beans. The steak was a bit under-seasoned with more of those dangoverly-fried bits on the underside. Mashed potatoes were cold... And dry : AND I LOVE MASHED POTATOES! Green beans were a bitmushy but they were made with bacon, so that made up for it. Was it terrible? No. It was expensive. I wouldn 't necessarilyname this place as recommendation to any of my friends or family. I know it 's new but I hope improvements are on the horizon.
