• Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. Head upstairs. Elbow past the crowd. Get a seat on the balcony. Look at Johnny Reb. Sip your Wild Turkey, rocks.

• Shrimp and grits was excellent. Our waitress recommended honey pie with lavender ice cream for dessert. Might sound weird but it was great.

• Add the fried oysters. Super quality. Yum! I put them on my salad which was meh without them. The black eyed pea cakes were perfect. The servers were on their A game! Gumbo was weak.
