We had a great wine recommended to us and enjoyed a 2 hour dinner there. I'd definitely go back the next time I have $100+ to drop on a dinner for 2.

I had a duck leg on grits and red-eye gravy that I'm still raving about from our first trip. Service has been consistent for us, informal but good. We've been to one of their "community dinners" where everyone who signs up for it is served family style at a large table (the room is reset for a long table down the middle of it) and had an excellent time. While it won't replace any restaurants on our rotation (I'm not gonna give up going to Bonne Soiree, for example), it is enjoyable enough to be added to the rotation -- worth the drive to Hillsborough and then some.
