| - We had seen them reviewed on "Check Please, Arizona" (that was the Scottsdale location), and realized there was one not too far from us. They have the same menu, so we decided to give it a try.
We came for lunch, and were greeted immediately. The restaurant's not too big, but they also have a nice sized patio. We decided to sit inside, but the patio doors were open, so it was quite pleasant. Corinne, our server, was very nice and friendly.
I ordered one of the specials, the tri-tip sandwich on french bread with shoestring fries. Hubby went with the shrimp and grits, since he'd seen that on the TV show, and couldn't wait to try it.
My sandwich was delicious! The meat was tender, the bread was soft and the aioli gave it a really nice flavor. Plus, the heaping portion of crispy shoestring fries...yummy!! Hubby's shrimp and grits were gone before I realized it. The shrimp were blackened, with creamy, cheesy, jalapeno grits and sausage gravy, which he sopped up with the grilled bread he received on the side.
He also ordered a slice of coconut cream pie, which was more like a slice and a half. He loves coconut cream pies, and tries them wherever we go. He said it was good, but a little too sweet and dense. But, somehow, he managed to finish the whole piece...LOL!
We would definitely go back for dinner. I'd love to try an appetizer and the toffee brownie dessert next time.
