"12-27-21 I went inside and placed an order to go. I ordered two brisket Philly sandwiches and 20 wings. The front staff was very nice and without prompting, they checked on my order 3 times. They kept apologizing and saying, “the wings take longer”. I’m guessing the kitchen forgot to drop the wings and apparently they waited until the 3rd check to actually cook them. I waited 45 minutes and that is excessive. I deducted 2 stars for the wait. The sandwiches were good but I had to reheat them when I got home and reheated breaded is never as good. I guess the sandwiches sat there waiting on the wings too. I’m also disappointed that the shrimp po boy was discontinued. Sadly, we discovered they put the celery under the wings, so it was too soggy to eat. If you've read any of my reviews, you know that I tend to dig in and remember to take a picture when I'm almost done. Not this time. I ordered the shrimp po boy and ale battered fries. I was gobsmacked at the amount of large, very tasty shrimp. It had probably 2 dozen shrimp. I had to knock some off just to fold the sandwich. There is a very fine line on bread between perfect toastiness and so hard it tears up the roof of your mouth. I hate that! This was perfect! It had shredded lettuce and tomato with a chipotle garlic aioli. Let's just say. OMG. The fries are also delicious with a kind of blistered exterior. The ranch is just meh but the fries don't need anything but salt, so no harm done. We also ordered wings to go for the Super Bowl tomorrow. The wings are nice and meaty."

"Probably my personal favorite probably go 3 times year the last 10 years the food is amazing. I honestly don't don't know how to describe the place. It's clean the staff is always great most of the seats are at a winding bar with a couple tables it puts you in mind of a local restaurant that would be on the ocean in a cool little town not an upscale atmosphere at all. The food on the other hand could be served at any 5 star location in the world and everyone would leave with a grin. If you haven't been your missing out put on your jeans tee shirt and a baseball hat and go eat like like a fortune 500 business executive that just hit the lottery it's that good."

"Our server Ariana was great but unfortunately our food took forever. We waited almost an hour for our food and when we did get them it was not worth the price. Needless to say we left quite disappointed and will not ever return again. This was our second time going trying to give it a chance but not worth it at all. Sorry ! Also we were there for an Easter brunch and I thought the menu was very short not much of a variety for an Easter brunch."

"We have always enjoyed everything we've ordered, but this order was even better than usual. My husband had the bbq plate and I had the chicken fried chicken. At the same time we both commented on how delicious it was. My chicken was breaded perfectly and was so juicy and tender. The baked beans were really good, also. The bbq and Mac and cheese were very good, too. I highly recommend eating here."

"This place is exceptionally awesome! Their menu items are definitely authentic Italian and not just American Italian food. Not saying that that 's bad but when you want real Italian food this is the place to go. The bread rolls that they serve for free before your meal are the best rolls I 've ever had in my life. Considering I never eat any free bread rolls at any restaurants because I 'm not a fan of that. But here, they are amazing. Better than the red lobsters biscuits they serve, which is the only other place I eat bread that they serve at a restaurant before you get your meal. I ordered the sea scallop risotto which has lump crab meat as well, superb! The second time I went I had veal marsala served with angel hair pasta which was excellent as well! I will definitely be back and I will take photos next time before I chow down. I didn 't take photos this time. Usually I do take photos but I was so excited and ready to eat the food because it is so good that I forgot to! If I could rate this restaurant six stars I would! I already know what I 'm going to get next time, the spaghetti carbonara it contains sauteed ham and pancetta tossed in spaghetti and carbonara sauce. Sounds amazing! Can 't wait to go back! Service is great as well! Haven 't had any issues in the two times that Ive went. Pricing for the food is where it should be at but is not low range but also is not high range it 's right in the middle. Expect to spend $50 for two people if not a little more or a little less depending if you get an appetizer and anything to drink other than water."
