    Our group was pleased with food and ambience. Staff were accommodating and friendly. My husband and I have eaten there many times and are always pleased. Now that I have planned for a group, I can add positive remarks concerning a group.

    We were greeted as we entered by two friendly gentlemen and taken right to our table, even though we were 20 minutes early We sat in a lovely room with a fireplace Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable When I ordered the wine he described it to me to make sure I would like it. We asked for some changes to the menu and he was able to accommodate us. Delicious she crab soup, followed by 2 crab cakes. Excellent meal

    The food was good, not excellent. The duck breast that I ordered consisted of 2 duck legs. When I pointed that out to the General Manager who inquired , he laughed and made no further comment. The service was fine but I thought the prices were a bit high.

    The chicken and biscuits & crab cake Benedict were both outstanding 👍 Mimosas and bloody Mary's were also top shelf. A must for an easy and not overwhelming Sunday brunch experience with a Southern flair.

    despite making an Open Table reservation many days in advance, calling & confirming with the restaurant the day before, stopping in person during the early evening to again confirm, when we arrived PROMPTLY at the time, there was NO table for us. The best they could do was seat us in the "greenhouse" where they assured us it would be warm. There was zero ambiance with plastic flaps and space heaters. Of the ~ 10 other diners there, 4 were eating in their down jackets, one with a leather outwear coat, and the others with various other heavy garments. We were anxious to entertain our local friends in their newly renovated establishment. We tried to enjoy a drink in the bar before our reservation, but it is small and had absolutely no space. Thus we went to a private club nearby. While the food was very good, the mentioned glitches mean we won't return.

    My wife and I were visiting from Dallas and wanted to try a local restaurant recommended by the locals. 82 Queen was recommended by everyone we asked. The food was the great. The Southern food was as good as in Mississippi if not better! The service from the beginning to the end was exceptional.
