    My son and I had a great brunch at this wonderful restaurant. The ambiance was nice and our server was extremely professional and attentive. The real stars were our entrees! I had chicken and waffles and my son had the blackened salmon ceasar salad. We both shared the egg rolls which were "over the moon" and back again. I was bummed they were out of lobster and mashed potatoes, but our experience made up for that. This place gets a thumbs up and five stars from me!!

    We had to keep asking where our drinks were and I did not like the Honey Bee at all and they would not switchit out. All of our food did not come out together. For Ruth Chris prices we deserve Ruth Chris service.

    Took my husband here for his birthday, food was good drinks were good but it was very hot, we asked if the a/c was on and she really didn’t say what the issue was which made me think it was off on purpose. Hate we didn’t get the full experience on his birthday.

    The hype of this restaurant is gone. The food was good but not for the price point. The collard greens taste like Glory Greens. The waitress was nice but the service overall is subpar because gratuity is automatic so they don’t give top notch service. The waitress did not let us know that the bottled water was an up charge. I don’t recall paying for water on the last visit. The roses were on the floor and need to be taped back on the walls. This was my second time and probably my last unless someone treats me to it. I won’t be spending my own money there. Hope this helps!
