In order: butter beans, beet and wagyu tartare, smoked cabbage with Alabama bbq and mushrooms, rabbit roulade and caramelized carrots, blackened red snapper with crab rice, cheddar and green chile grits, baked Texas (rum cake with apple compote obviously set on fire)
I was apprehensive coming to the restaurant after reading reviews on numerous sites. My hubby had heard great words about it from his friend from Mississippi and wanted to give it a whirl for a special occasion. I obliged.
The ambience is quaint and the service is fantastic. They give you basically the entire history of the south and the restaurant as soon as you enter your table to order a drink. Helluurrrrr this is the head chef from top chef, don’t you forget it!!
The appetizers were the best part of the meal. We were told by friends to get the beans but the cabbage was the star of the show. My favorite meal by far.
For entrees…….the rabbit wassssssss underwhelming. And small for its cost. And dry. So dry. Whyyyy so dry?? Girl I was so lost!
The fish dish on the other hand was one of the best things I’ve ever put in my mouth. I will be going back just for that creamy, crabby, beauty.
The dessert was really good.
Overall, 8/10. The service was awesome. Overpriced restaurant. But still pretty fuckin bangin. I’ll go back but like twice a year if u know what I mean.
