We made reservations and my mom had the butternut squash noodles and I had the cauliflower steak. We also tried one of their desserts, the pecan pie crème brûlée.
The noodles I felt like could use more zing, like the option of lemon juice or vinegar to pull all the flavors together. The cauliflower steak was a 10/10 and well worth the money- the sauce, the way they cooked it, everything was great and perfect.
The dessert was fantastic, 10/10.
Some additions I think would be nice:
I think this restaurant would be really nice to have some fresh bread available for an appetizer. I also think if the vegan/vegetarian meals had a bit more protein that would be awesome, and a vegan dessert and appetizer would be nice too. A lot of restaurants tend to not even meet vegans with a decent, balanced(protein+greens/veggies+grain/noodle/starch+sauce/good seasoning), and flavorful meal. However, I feel like the dishes this restaurant did have for vegetarians were well thought-out and tasty.
We arrived a bit early and were seated at the bar while we waited to be seated at our empty prepped table. I didn’t particular like sitting at the bar, and didn’t see the reasoning behind this other than they just don’t sit people at their tables before official dinner hours.
Overall, the food was excellent, the staff were friendly and polite, and we’d love to come back again when we are in town.

I was there for a private event which means we had a Prix Fixe menu with a simple salad, dinner roll, entree, and mini desserts, so keep that in mind. The atmosphere was nice and the appetizers were good. The vegetarian entree options (roasted cauliflower steak) was sizeable and prepared well with a little hot sauce and barbecue sauce but it provided nothing in the way of protein which was disappointing. Our server was kind, just a bit frazzled.

We hosted my husband’s retirement dinner here, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The event space was beautiful, well organized, and comfortably accommodated our group. The staff went above and beyond to make the evening special — attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming.
The food was excellent and arrived on time, which made the entire night run smoothly. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the atmosphere and service. It was the perfect place to celebrate such an important milestone, and the team made it stress-free and memorable for our entire family.
Highly recommend this restaurant for any special event or celebration. We will definitely be back!!

I have heard of this place for years and finally got the chance to try it. It was good but I wasn’t wowed! My ribeye was tasty but under cooked (medium rare and not medium). Although the server was TOP NOTCH, and payed quick attention to the matter, the poorly executed preparation of the ribeye was disappointing. I’ve had better steaks for MUCH LESS! My friend’s short rib over cheese grits was melt in your mouth and fork tender. The grits were tasty as well. The star of the night, was the crispy Brussels Sprouts… better than all the others I will now refer to as copycats out there. The atmosphere is nice if you like the trendy nightclub atmosphere. Our server served up a complimentary strawberry donut (I think it was strawberry. May have been blueberry) It was beautiful to behold, but the bottom was overly charred… ok, it was burnt. Sorry! I appreciated the gesture and was not about to complain, though… I so wanted to give this one rave reviews and it fell short…

Great dining spot just across my hotel downtown. Vibes were great. Dark and warm at the same time: Made a reservation for 530 pm on a Wednesday and it was fairly quiet. I would expect it to be busier on a weekend night. My waiter (sorry didn’t catch name) was fantastic. Food was all solid – beef short rib and side of Brussels. It had me full but not in a gross way. Flavors were all on point. Also had a strawberry mocktail that was great – shout out bartender! Go eat here if you are in town.

I’ve been here multiple times and each time it’s fabulous. The food is just so good and service is always exceptional.
I highly recommend for a date night or special occasion…or even just a great meal on a Tuesday. Enjoy!

Incredible experience with Cece on the evening of July 26th! I cannot say enough good things about this establishment. From the service to the ambiance to the perfectly curated menu… absolutely in love with this place! The gas lanterns on the wall and the stunning flower arrangement in the center made for a beautiful setting. The huge light fixtures above us had the perfect amount of light that was calm and not too bright. The staff is so pleasant and makes sure that everything is well cared for. The bartender made a virgin Bloody Mary and it wasn’t an issue which I have ran into in the past at other places I’ve visited. They were very accommodating to anyone with a food allergy. I had the pork tenderloin with a strawberry sauce that was beyond delicious. My sister had the lamb and my dad had the teres major. We had the best desserts here and the presentation for every single plate was top notch. I’ve eaten at Michelin Star restaurants and truly this presentation is up there with the best! You will not be disappointed in your experience here. 12/10

The atmosphere was great and the service was over the top. One of the servers took the time to sing. You’re so beautiful to me for my wife. Overall, that was a great evening. Unfortunately, the food was not up to the hype that I have been given. I would say it was an OK meal but nothing that was not my socks off. We may go back again, but not for sure.

We used to come here all the time when we lived in Alabama. After being away for 2 and a half years, it’s still one of the best restaurants we’ve been to. They changed their short rib recipe a bit. It’s still divine, but we prefer the old recipe

Great food and a nice atmosphere. I wish I had ordered the ribeye because it looked amazing. I had the salmon and oysters, both nicely done.
