Reviews

Absolutely excellent!! Friendly, prompt staff and fantastic food.
Reasonably fast.
Fried green tomatoes were the best I've ever had.
The mushroom and grits (Skeeter style) was phenomenal and the steak frites were divine.
The pecan pie bread pudding with caramel sauce was transcendent.
Would definitely recommend!!


A bit of a wait but we'll worth it.
Server was polite and timely.
Gumbo was some of the best outside of Louisiana.
Grilled pork chop perfect and my wife enjoyed her salmon.
Bread pudding was good but a little too sweet. Reasonable prices and nice outdoor dining.


Wonderful dinner in Chattanooga.
Pimento cheese with grilled pita and fried okra pods appetizer was devine! Burgers with Rosemary fries and macaroni and cheese.
