I love the decor of the restaurant, from the touile wallpaper to the deer heads wearing scarves it was eclectic and cute. Our waiter was Kevin and he was extremely professional and accommodating to my mother and I. We will certainly be back.
Server Oni and the others (Jose and Ahmed) were awesome. Would recommend especially to watch a game.
I've gotta say, at this point, I'm so confused by the connection between Black Wall HItch, Blackwall Barn & Lodge, and the Lodge. I'm pretty sure they're all sister restaurants. But...... that's neither here nor there. They are all good IMO. However, the set-up here is a bit confusing. To get oysters, shrimp, or desserts you'll have to go to the other side of the restaurant. You can't see them from the main area where brunch is served so you'll have to ask, or just follow everybody else. Ha! Our reservation (I was here with a group of 8 friends) was for 1230, but we weren't seated until approximately 1310. If I wasn't so hungry, I would have been chill. But when you come to a place like this you tend to skimp on the food the day before. Well, I do anyway. They probably impose a time restriction so I felt they should have enforced it on the party before us. Anyway, we were finally seated and headed for some food! My favorite meal at all of these restaurants is always the shrimp & grits! This particular spot did not disappoint. They also added cajun sausage. Yum! I had to use another spoon to grab some of the broth to pour over my grits. They had a slotted spoon to use for the shrimp (who does that)?! My second favorite is the baby waffles. I don't know what type of batter they use, but they always taste homemade. ADD the options of berries, whip cream & real maple syrup....I'm done! Everything I ate was delicious. However, I've concluded that the oysters served at these brunches are not the same as those I would order at, say an oyster bar. I don't know how they do it, but they never taste the same. They lack the brine and flavor of oysters you PAY for at other places. I had a few only to once again prove my hypothesis. Overall, it's a decent brunch.
Welp.....Food?.....AMAZING!....such a vast variety....the service at the carving station from Gaby and Damian were top tier! SO! sweet....SO! helpful! And then there was our Bartender Oneido! With a full bar to himself....plus hightops....plus the drinks for the restaurant itself?! He was ON it! Great energy from him makes we want to come back and sit at the bar. Handled everything like it wasn't his first rodeo. I will certainly be back!
Ms Karen made for a great first experience. The food was absolutely amazing. I look forward to returning with my family and friends.
