    A must have is the crab bisque and prince edwards mussels. A culinary masterpiece. Don't forget the pork tenderloin/lamb shank. They r 2 die for. As a concierge this is by far my favorite restaurant.

    Disappointed from 1st visit 8 yrs ago. Bisque best. Excited deviled pimento cheese eggs but blandest ever. Mussels,scallops were decent. Staff was attentive. Excellent wine list! Love the venue.

    One of CL's 100 dishes to eat before you die: The vegetable platter brims with variety and almost feels like a home-cooked Thanksgiving spread, minus the turkey. Read more

    One of my favorite restaurants for years but unfortunately it can be hit-or-miss. When it's a hit it's absolutely fantastic and a perfect place to bring visitors from out of town.

    Flash-fried oysters and pimiento cheese deviled eggs for starters, both dynamic and delish. Skate Wing and Beef Tenderloin Meatloaf (special) were amazing. Sit at the bar- quick and excellent service.

    Enjoy a night out of soul food at Wisteria this week. Treat yourself to the Southern Fried Lemon & Rosemary Catfish with spicy green tomato and okra & crawfish ragout.

    Ask for Giovanni. Personable and funny with stories of his mom and great jokes. And love the sampler desserts! 4 of us shared 3. All are fabulous!

    We spent $500 because we had birthday dinner.The price is just not worth it. I think you can find nicer places, it was very dark inside and loud. But it was nice they had complementary valet parking.

    Try the molasses-rubbed pork tenderloin over fluffy sweet potato soufflé, with a sassy relish of Vidalia onion, apple and walnuts. Read more

    Three Meat Bolognese is awesome! Be warned though, the "peach cobbler" is actually more of an assorted fruit cobbler.
