The seasonal chef’s special is always amazing, but my favorite staple entree is the Guinness Braised Brisket. For dessert, the Bonzo Cake has no equal
Jeff Odell I Loloi Rugs
The Opportunist (oysters, shrimp, ceviche, smoked fish dip, lump crab) which is enough for 3. Pairs well with the J. Hofstätter, Alto Adige Pinot Grigio, (apricot, wild herbs, charming)

The Tuna Crisp is a must!
Saralyn Bell I Brand Ambassador
The Omani Shrimp (Black Tiger Shrimp, Persian dried lime, sour orange and Labneh) is absolutely delish.

Grilled Pork Tenderloin, Coastal Shrimp & Grits and Fried Green Tomatoes. I cannot recommend only one thing – it is all just too good.
