Good Food and Good Service
Easter Sunday and we decide to go out for Brunch. Normally this would not be an issue since that is our customary routine but with Hip Surgery, less than two weeks ago, still playing it by ear.
Pulled in about 11:45 am just ahead of the Church rush. My wife dropped me off at the front door while she found a parking spot. I made it to the top of the steps on crutches when the manager ran out to hold the doors for me (both sets) which helped they were quite heavy. They went ahead and seated me while we waited for my wife.
Nice decor and with the horizontal ceiling fans, reminds me of the old Bombay Bicycle Club Chain of restaurants from years past.
Wife joined me and our server was there to take our drink menu's and to present us with menus.
Both of us ordered Sweet Tea although I ordered it 1/2 and 1/2 and glad I did. Hate to think how it would have tasted if it were straight Sweetened Tea.
Nice menu with something for everyone.
I ordered the Country Fried Steak with Mashed Potatoes, Gravy and Cheesy Broccoli Casserole for my entree. My wife ordered a Philly Cheese Steak with a side of corn for her's.
While we waited, we had a chance to observer the dining room. Nice and light and airy with a Deep South Atmosphere. I loved the aquarium at one end but so did most of the kids who came it as well.
Lunch came out in short order. Server apologized because when they came in that morning, the kitchen had made to wrong gravy and I was going to have to wait for a few. No problem and when it came it was good. The Broccoli Casserole was somewhat dry though.
The Country Fried Steak and the Potatoes were excellent and let's face it, they are the highlight of the meal.
My wife enjoyed her Philly Cheese Steak but I will admit, I am used to a Philly Cheese Steak being bright yellow because of the type cheese used.
Nevertheless, she enjoyed it and portions were large enough, she finished it off this evening.
Came time to leave and everyone was grabbing and holding doors again. I'm not helpless but the gesture was appreciated and it extended beyond the staff. Other Patrons were trying to help as well.
Great commentary on the Spirit of Easter
