Customer Reviews

This is a wonderful find in downtown Columbus. This place has great burgers, great grits, and the layered fried green tomatoes and goat cheese are some of the best in the South. They have been featured in “Garden and Gun” which knows more about out of the way Southern food than, well, you would expect from a magazine with that name. Highly recommend.

I came to this place over the week end, didn’t crank out a review until now. Let’s start off with this place’s ambiance . I like it, it’s just a cozy restaurant. I started off with the bbq shrimp. I was thinking they were grilled , but no. they were fried jumbo shrimp and a spicy, creamy bbq sauce! Very good. Then I had there biggest steak. 16oz ribeye. Perfectly cooked and lightly seasoned . Actually this place is all about the flavor of the meat and not over powered with salt. Highly recommend this place, they have several fun beers on tap. I will come back to this place soon.

Drove from Albany to try because of these reviews. Now that I’m here I see why your reviews are so amazing! The BLT dip was really good and set the tone for everything else. I will bring my leadership team here next time I’m in town. Great restaurant, great customer service, and great food!!!!

The food was amazing and the customer Service was great as well. We stopped by there back from vacation and we wanted a nice place to eat. Waiters were friendly and offered great service. Food came out right away and we were served with no problems. It was during lunch hours so not sure how dinner would be. We will definitely stop by again. Oh and it was super affordable for great cooked meals.

Today I graduated from Fort Benning basic training and went out with my family to eat here. I got a regular cheeseburger with the side of fries. Our waitress was super attentive, the food took average amount of time to come out but I had enjoyed my families company, there was no waiting for a table, food was pretty good, and to top it all off I treated myself with cheesecake and she said “its on me” which made me appreciate her as my server a whole lot more all because she appreciates my service for the country if I lived in the area would definitely make another trip. I also forgot to mention the decor was really nice. It had a hipster vibe to it kind of like chipotle.
