    We had a mixed experience here. The she-crab soup is phenomenal and worth getting along with the trout, but our service was the pits. Overall, for the price, we liked Carmella's better overall

    Amazing service and great atmosphere. Very cool and knowledgeable about serving a vegan option. Ask for a veggie pizza with no cheese or the heirloom tomato panzanella salad sans bread.

    Delicious brunch. Very attractive dining room and patio. The action is in the back of the restaurant so don't be scared off by the lack of activity in the front windows.

    Red velvet bread pudding is fantastic.. If you're looking for a dessert to leave you feeling fully satisfied, try it. Also comes with strawberry cheesecake ice cream

    The Red Velvet Bread Pudding is ridiculous. Also, Blossom may have the best bread and butter I've ever had at a restaurant.

    Yellowfin tuna fantastic.. FYI medium rare is done om outside but very rare inside. I love it that way but order more done if you don't like it rare.

    Shrimp and Andouille Sausage Omlette is fresh, slightly creamy and delicious! The grits need a little syrup to be perfect.

    Calamari/Clams appetizer was nothing special and over cooked. Fried Green Tomatoes disappointing; not as good as the description.
