    Crab cakes were great, but overpriced. The Parmesan rolls were also good. I would skip the cheesy grits, way too dry.

    Despite its high rating (and our excitement to try this place) we were fairly disappointed. We felt rushed and the food was just okay.

    Decent food. Atmosphere is loud and touristy though. And it feels commercially like any other table service chain.
