I recommend the short rib roast and the pecan pie. If you see a long queue don't bother to wait unless this is the only place everyone in your group really wants to go. You will be disappointed once you do get seated. Breakfast is 'Ehhh' I tried the bloody marry and I should have had an idea when, the server refers to the mix as 'the sludge'.

First impression walking into the restaurant was like walking into the Venetian in Vegas. I kept on thinking what happend to the noise from the slot machines? The dishes sadly falls under my category of Fusion Confusion. Looking at the group of people dining and the location, it was mostly tourist. Back to the food, the selections where average and presentation was OK but the flavors where underwhelming. Except for the crab bisque, there is no point on spending all that money. If you are going to spend that kind of money you might as well just go to Le Colonial.

If you want to throw a huge party and need to feed a lot of peeps this is a good place for that. Their catering menu is very reasonable and you get a lot for your $. Not really a place for sit down eating but the food is average for BBQ.

This place is 'cute'. The food is pricey for what you get but they do have good sauce here. The beans where just ok since it tasted like they just used one of their sauces to bake them in. Corn bread was way too dry. Good place to take peeps who are not too familiar with BBQ and need to be 'eased' into it.

This is a good place for breakfast food! It's small so you have to get there early on a weekend. I've met some really nice local people at this diner who have been coming for years! When I mean years I mean 20! Make sure to order a side of bacon! They do it right here.

Now this is a diner. It's just food straight up. No foo-foo-shi-shi decor or fancy furniture. It's very simple and very cheap, a local fave in these parts. Try to get in a little early on weekends. The crowd starts at 10am!

The food is okay here nothing special. There are defiantly way better breakfast places a few doors down from this place. Service can use a little work oh like maybe hiring more than just one person.

Eh...this place you can skip. Food is not good, fish is not fresh and way over priced for what you get. Oh, and enough with the hard techno music already. Better off saving the $.
