  Sheer disappointment. Friends recommended we go after they had been there twice and enjoyed it both times. This time, however, was very different according to them. It started out okay, with the waitress being very friendly, and the appetizers were very good. I should mention that we arrived at 7:30 and didn't eat to put our order in until after 8:00. Once we had our appetizers, everything began to go downhill. The main courses didn't arrive until after 9:30 (mind you we sat down at 7:30), and while we were waiting, our waitress disappeared, and showed up at the table 3 times after we put in our order. We ran out of drinks regularly, and one of our party actually had to go to the bar to get a sparkling water because the waitress wasn't around. Once we had our main dishes, we were disappointed again. The good looked as though it was sitting for 15-20 minutes before it arrived, and it wasn't cooked very well. Two of our party had the shrimp and grits, which were undercooked, two others had mac and cheese, where the cheese congealed on top from sitting so long, and I had the catfish which tasted okay, but was barely warm, and was a very small portion. Overall it was a very bad experience for our party, and I don't think any of us will go back.
