| - My group of 6 got seated on a Thursday night a little after 8pm with no wait. The place was not as crowded as I anticipated from reading the reviews and most people had already cleared out for the night.
I read all 84 reviews before coming here. Every. Single. One. I could tell there was a lot contrasting opinions on the food here, so I wanted to make sure I ordered the right things. I knew I had to get the "Dirty" grits. I love grits, but rarely order them and would usually favor Mac and cheese. The reviews mentioned that the Mac and cheese consists of little cheese and overcooked noodles, lol not appealing. I went with the dirty grits and could not have been happier. They had a lot going on, and I'm still unsure what exactly made them "dirty", but there was definitely cheese, corn, and some kind of meat. You need to get these grits. You will not be sorry. For my meal, I ordered the chicken & waffle. The chicken was crispy, moist, well-seasoned and served on a cornbread waffle that was equally delicious. It was a VERY solid and satisfying chicken & waffle (and only $11!). My plate actually came with a piece of cornbread although I'm not sure it is supposed to. The cornbread was the only thing I tried that I did not like, like other reviews mention, it was cold and dry.
I also tasted the Bourbon BBQ Smoked Wings, the Burnt Ends, and the plantain chips from others at my table. The wings had great flavor and were very, very moist but also very saucy. The Burnt Ends were awesome, but also very saucy. Like to the point where it's almost more about the sauce than the meat. I can see why this could be a problem and potentially leave people disappointed, but they were really good in my opinion. The "plantain chips" are really tostones. They were really nicely seasoned and SUPER good. Most tostones I've had are not done well, super dry, crunchy, and either mad under-seasoned or way too salty. These were perfect, crispy on the outside but nice and chewy on the inside. Just how I like them and crazy delicious.
I got a Moscow Mule which I liked a lot. It was not very strong, which is honestly how I prefer it, so it worked for me. As promised, they have a lot of beer and bourbon options. Everyone at my table liked their drinks.
Every staff member we interacted with was super nice and helpful. We experienced very attentive service and our food came out fast. We asked to have our checks split in a kind of confusing manner, and they were happy to do it.
I wish I could speak to the brisket, pork, sausage, or ribs but I can't. The other people at my table got chicken and salmon. Everyone liked their food. After reading the wide range of reviews, I didn't want to set myself up for potential disappointment. I did the research and wanted something that proved pleasing to other yelpers. Obviously it worked for me! I loved my meal and had a great experience here. I'm visiting from out of town and will likely come back on my next trip.
