| - Me and the bf visited here for happy hour recently, and holy happy hour!!! Because I pretty much wanted to try everything, we ordered WAY more food than necessary. We were both fans of the mini complimentary biscuits and peach preserves, so good. Then for an appetizer we got the cheese plate. Pretty good, though I prefer the one at XYZ Tavern. I'd rather have a firmer cheese as opposed to spreadable. Just my personal preference though. It was still quite tasty. We also ordered the jalapeno goat cheese hush puppies. They were pretty tasty, though the sauce could use some seasoning. We both got sandwiches as our entrees. I got the Dixie Cheesesteak (usually $12, but at happy hour it's only $7!) let me tell you, it was AMAZING. I've had a lot of cheesesteaks in my life, and this was one of the best. The meat is brisket, and it was so tender and flavorful it melts in your mouth, and the cheese sauce was really good too. The bf got the Fried Green Tomato BLT. ( also a happy hour special $7 instead of $12). He loved it, he said the fried green tomato tasted just like his grandma from Alabama makes! The sandwiches come with pickled veggies, and home made potato chips. I wasn't a huge fan of the pickled veggies, as they bordered on sweet (I'm a dill pickle kind of gal), but the bf loved them, particularly the carrots and green beans. The chips were eh, but by the time I finished my sandwich I had ZERO room for them anyway.
They have a large selection of bourbons and whiskeys and quite a few specialty cocktails centered around those. We both agreed the drinks could use some work, and one vodka as an option wouldn't hurt either.
All in all a great new addition to the scene, and we will be back. I hope they change menus seasonally, so that i'll get to taste their amazing feta watermelon sald that they previewed at a 4th of July party last year!!
