Really big plates, you need to share, but food is excelent, place is great with or without kids, I strongly recommend it.
This chain and location seem to be a nesting ground for horribly behaved children, and I have had several bad experiences here with ignorant parents. Children kicking and jumping on the booth screaming, which kept knocking me forward into the table/food. Even after sharp words with the parents and spilling half the drinks on our table, the family didn't seem to care and let their hooligans continue. Always ask to be seated away from children here
A great place to eat fresh and some unique dishes, but plan to wait for it -- worth it. They a have the best white corn grits (come with a few shrimp and a little spice) I've ever eaten... and I lived in Alabama for 3 years! There are lots of healthy choices, which is really welcome. The patio seating area is comfortable and not too cold. As for the cheesecake? We had the red velvet; it was lusciously good, but where was the taste of cheese?
Why is this chain Zagat rated?
Heavy calory entrees with knowledgeable wait staff. The main event may be the cheesecake, but the entrees are good. Even with a wait.
