I was so excited to try this place. The name alone made me quiver but the food definitely DID NOT!!!!
It sadness me when a restaurant basically changes it's menu constantly. What is the purpose of doing that!?!
Okay let's get to the food..... I order shrimp and grits. Now this is southern staple, everyone loves this dish but guess what I didn't love there version of this dish....
The shrimp tasted like store brought, frozen and then thrawd out... Yuck.. the shrimp were also way too small. I thought shrimp with grits should be just that, beautiful prawn sized shrimp.... NOPE NOT HERE! The grits were thick.... not smooth and velvety like grits should be.
My girlfriend ordered the fried chicken....OMG... heaven help this fried chicken. The crust wasn't light and crispy,.... it was over cooked with a thick batter that made the fried chicken to heavy.
The drinks were delicious but who gets a cocktail wrong!
Let's talk desserts... the bread pudding was okay but the beignets were amazing!!! BRAVO TO THE BEIGNETS so light and fluffy with tons of powdered sugar.... HOORAY THEY GOT SOMETHING RIGHT!!!
I must give a shout out the best waiter we had named Andre. He was so attentive and catered to all of our needs.
Trust me if it wasn't for him, we probably would have left.
When you represent southern cuisine you should cook southern cuisine! Not pretend to cook It!
