| - Staff was extremely nice, but not very attentive. We ordered the Ballantyne specialty cocktail, which was absolutely delicious, as were the shrimp and grits. The other items we ordered were very "meh." The calamari (and yes, we knew it wasn't fried, but wanted to try it anyway.) The sauce and accompanying potatoes were flavorful, and I would order that as a side alone. The calamari itself was very bland and added nothing to the dish. We also ordered the spring pea ravioli, and it was disappointing as well. Nothing to pinpoint as awful, just not very good, and certainly would not recommend or order again. As a carb lover, I appreciate a restaurant who brings a basket of homemade bread, but in this case, I'd rather save the calories.
TLDR: go for the cocktails, and then somewhere else for dinner.
