I recently dined at The American Reserve inside the Ambassador Hotel, and it was a delightful experience! The historic decor beautifully combines elegance with coziness. I enjoyed the Shrimp and Grits, which was bursting with flavor, while my companion went for the Double Cut Pork Chop - perfectly cooked after a quick tweak from our attentive waitress. 🍽️

We also indulged in the house Caesar salad, which was fantastic! The live jazz added a lovely touch to our evening. Despite a few minor hiccups, the service was top-notch. Can’t wait to return for brunch! 🎶✨
