We just left the restaurant after ordering take out. Fries and hush puppies very soggy. They also forgot one of our sides. Not happy

When the food came it was like warm. The manager did apologize and we only paid half price. He did offer to have it all remade. But by then we were short on time

The gift shop was really cute. The food wasn't my favorite but my party went while it was very busy. Not many vegetarian options. The staff was super sweet and helpful.

Do you take reservations and is there a charge

Leila Harville | Oct 15, 2020
CHARLES NORRIS | Oct 15, 2020

This time of year, unless it's a group of 8 or more, it shouldn't be an issue. Most of the year you encounter a 45 minute to an hour wait by just showing up. It's that good and it gets hot down here.
