This food is pretty tasty, and the atmosphere is amazing, but the hostess could be more present at the front door. The indoor seating was literally empty, and the hostess was nowhere to be found. It took ten minutes for us to be seated. Once we were seated, our waiter was great! He was very attentive. I highly recommend the lavender sparkling lemonade. Thank me later! 😉
This restaurant is a must try. We made a reservation for lunch. Upon arrival it took a few minutes for a host to seat us but once we were seated the service was quick and consistent. We ordered a cocktail and the black eye pea fritters. I can't remember the name of the cocktail but it was a bourbon drink similar to an old fashioned. The drink was perfect. The fritters while tasty, the texture of the center wasn't my favorite.
For our entree, we ordered and shared a 6 pc fried chicken (wings, thighs, and drumsticks are what arrived), brisket combo with greens and mac and cheese, and fries. The crust and seasoning on the fried chicken was delicious. The greens were cooked perfectly and tasted great (and I am VERY picky about greens). I wasn't a huge fan of the mac and cheese but I wouldn't say it was a bad.
To finish our meal, we ordered the 7up cake. If it's on the menu when you go YOU MUST order it. It's not overly sweet and perfectly moist.
We have already made plans for brunch at Alta that should tell you how good it is. So good that we need a repeat visit just a few days after the first visit.
Great place for sandwiches and classic southern style foods! The back patio is a great place to dine in with vines acting as the natural shading too. You'll have to find street parking, but it's not too difficult to find.
The Shrimp and Grits are soo good here. Very well made and velvety with a good amount of shrimp. Super tasty and was really happy with this dish. The Deviled Eggs are super yummy too with a good kick! Collard Greens are classic. Brisket Burger was scrumptious too!
Also request their hot sauce! Really delicious and balanced that elevates all the dishes as well. Overall, a really enjoyable restaurant!
