We ordered the Taste of South served family style at the recommendation of the waiter and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite. The spread included three courses with perfect portions of each component, served with appropriate time in between to savor each dish. It was a wonderful sampling that included some items we would not have tried otherwise.

Got there a few minutes late for our reservation and they were very accommodating about getting us seated quickly. Delish food, hip vibe, and terrific service by Jose G. A great place to get a meal before (or after) a show at the Anthem, so we'll be back!
