    Haven't been here for a couple years, missed this place. Service was a little slow, their having problems getting workers, so be patient! Our server was Hannah, and she was great. Fried chicken special was excellent, Cobb salad was tasty, and the stuffed jalapeños were good!

    My grilled chicken salad was very good, plenty of dressing, served on the side along with croutons. My husband had the catfish n fries, doesn't like coleslaw so he got hushpuppies instead, was very good, I sampled his. The other two people in our group said their shrimp basket and pork tenderloin sandwich was good too. Would eat there again was very good. Still gave them 5 stars, but I wasn't fond of the water, that's not that big of deal though, just get soda.

    I love it when I walk into an establishment and the hostesses our hosts greet us with a smile and personality. These girls were excellent. The service is great and I have to say the dirty Marty that I had was delicious I just wish they had blue cheese olives

    Very comfortable atmosphere. Friendly service. Steaks were very tender and flavorful, although cooked more than what several in our party felt they had ordered. A beautiful, relaxing evening on the river for dinner and then outside on the patio for live music. We will definitely go back.

    My husband took my bestie, who was visiting, and I out for dinner on a Saturday evening. Our dinner was delicious. My husband had the prime rib, we had the salmon. Both were very good. The service was just right, not too hoovering but our drinks were kept full😉. All in all great evening!

    One of the finest casual dining experiences around. The service is always top-notch, the food great and the atmosphere perfect.

    Service and atmosphere are great. Food on the other hand is not. Do people really think this food Is great? Rib eye sandwich tasted like unseasoned microwaved meat with melted cheese. French onion soup taste like 1 bowl has a whole packet of French onion soup mix in it. Crazy salty! This is my last 2 experiences. I know it's not just me. Love the building wish the food was better.

    Waited nearly an hour for our food. When it finally arrived everything was cold. The steamed vegetables felt as if they had been in the refrigerator, the ribeye was luke warm at best, and the baked potato wasn't warm enough to melt butter. I refused to meal and had it removed from the check. At more than $32 for a steak dinner, I don't think hot food is too much to expect. This was our first time eating here. We had heard several opinions from people who had been here before and none of them were very good, but thought we'd try it for ourselves. Needles to say we were not impressed. We will not be back.
