BeeFebruary 24, 2015Found the secret to quickly getting a seat here - arrive right when they open at 9am on a Sunday!
Kathy LiuDecember 27, 2015Huge portions! Listen to the waitstaff- if they tell you to not get any more food, it's definitely a good idea.
SloanMarch 18, 2016kinda like an upscale Cheesecake factory - huge portions, unhealthy food, but tastes oh so delicious
Wonderful place, must try are fried pickles and cheesy grits
Ed FrazierOctober 29, 2013The biscut bread pudding with vanilla ice cream is crazy good and can easily feed 10 people!
Gary St ClareJanuary 24, 2017Food is great and need to wait if you arrived after 9:00 AM. Great price and god portion.
Ruth MadrigalJuly 18, 2015Wow. Portions are huge and tasty. I don't think I'll ever want to have pickles anywhere else.
Wilson HomApril 20, 2014Very dim place at night. Make sure you bring a flashlight so you can read through the menu.
Anna LApril 19, 2014Sit at the bar. And try the pickles. They add a nice balance to the main dishes.
Madeline McDavidJanuary 2, 2016Best fried pickles ever. Pleasant terrace and delicious southern-style brunches.
Yes to the Mac and cheese! Pickle samplers a must for pickle lovers!
Ram SossJune 23, 2016The fried chicken sandwich is great. I wish the beer flights were not pre-determined.
Roger SadowskySeptember 20, 2015Don't believe the reviews...maybe a great place for young folks to hang out and drink lots of good beer. But the food is some if the worst I've ever eaten....and the noise level is intolerable!
Andrew LeungJanuary 28, 2015If you like hot sauce, ask for some with your entree. It's the house made hot sauce.
Narisa OlivieriJanuary 16, 2014Everything here is amazing. Add a delicious strip of bacon on top of any beer for an extra $2
Oscar Ortega JrDecember 14, 2014Can't go wrong w the biscuit sandwiches, 'n cheese, and pickle starter
Get the Buffalo Mac and Cheese and thank me later
Anything with fried chicken, fried pickles, deviled eggs. Don't get the oatmeal.
Roger SchonfeldAugust 8, 2014Chaotic brunch time seating even with reservations. Portion size for pancakes and French toast = monstrous.
- SarahNovember 16, 2014Yummy biscuits and gravy. Don't try to get your eggs over medium though. The chef apparently doesn't know what that means.
- Travis BloomJanuary 17, 2017Portions are outta control, split an entree. Don't forget the pickle appetizers 😍
