We came Thursday night without a reservation but were able to be seated right away! The scallop plate was a little bland but the pork belly was the best part of the dish. The halibut stole the show! It was so flavorful and light.

Great atmosphere and service. Food was a bit underwhelming for the price. Loved the fried oyster sliders. The asparagus was a bit gray and overcooked. Scallops were good but the risotto base was bland. Valerie was an excellent server.

Wow!!! Amazing!!! We made reservations for 6 p.m arrival we were greeted then seated. Josh was our waiter and his service was phenomenal. We asked for suggestions he was very patient and gave details. I ordered the New strip and asparagus and they both were amazing!!! The steak was cooked to perfection and once you tasted it!!! It gave the wow effect. I never had a better steak. My husband ordered the short ribs with grits and we both ate all the food!!! We top it off with dessert Jake mile high lemon meringue pie and it was mile high delicious 😋 I will definitely return when I visit Montgomery!!!

A bit disappointed in the food/ drinks overall. Had a smoked old fashion and English pea ravioli. Smoked old fashion was service with a muddled cherry and lemon... Flavor was ok considering I was expecting orange. Ravioli was bland. With all those ingredients you would expect a amazing flavor but it fell short needing salt or acid. Service was good at the bar. Overall for the price, it didn't meet expectations.

Incredibly delectable food with very fresh ingredients. I ordered the special salad with plums and it was one of the best salads I’ve ever had. We enjoyed their non-alcoholic beverage list, and our server was respectful and professional. They were very accommodating of our food allergies.
