"Stopped here on the way home from a Sunday ballgame. Came upon this located in a large shopping center type Main Street area with a variety of shoppes, food places, etc. What I liked upon entry was the white/navy blue decor with stained wood, RWB accents, and just an overall clean feel to the place. There is a small bar area, and even though the place isn 't necessarily large, there is a small private room and plenty of seating. We sat down at 5:37pm by a hostess, and ordered water. I went to the bathroom to handle an irrigation issue, and upon my return still no waiter. Ten minutes went by still nothing. At 13minutes I became heavily agitated and caught the eye of a waiter who realized we were in his area, and he hadn 't addressed us yet. We got the excuse out of the way and order appetizers with me adding a mixed drink black cherry bourbon. Hey now. For the appetizers we got hush puppies and lobster/spinach queso. The hush puppies were very good and came with honey butter (never had butter on them before) The batter was good and had a homemade esque feel to them, but i would put them on the level of LJS pups. The queso was somewhat challenging to me lobster was well represented, but was kind of oily where the queso met the ceramic cup edge. For the meal I went with the special: a steak n ' cake which I was told was a steak with crab cake on top. Instead it was a steak slices accompanying a crab cake on top of mashed potatoes. Odd. The steak was perfectly medium as ordered, the mashed potatoes were very good whipped with the purple skins, green beans were flavored right and the crab cake, although small, was as advertised with little filler. Not sure what the white sauce was but I enjoyed all the items in conjunction. Sharing a key lime pie, I added a coffee and we headed out. The homemade whipped cream on top of the pie was good but it was more like a lime custard pie to me. Nothing wrong with that. I liked the food a lot the waiter was good once he realized we were there, and for only that reason I have this as a 4. Very good. Highly recommended."
