Reviews
“ Loved our experience here the other night for a girls date. Located in the heart of downtown Clermont, this cozy restaurant offers a variety of options for appetizers and entrees. The staff are friendly and check on you often. Then their food... delicious! I do not get to see often She Crab Soup so I had to get it. I wish I got the bowl size instead of a cup. So thick and creamy and full of flavor. I loved my shrimp and grits as well. One of the standard southern dishes, the shrimp were big and juicy and swimming in a sauce full of rich Cajun style flavors. ”

“ I came here yesterday, December 2, with family to celebrate my Mom's 90th birthday. This is the second time that I dine at this gem nestled in the corner of eighth and Montrose in the small, but cute area called downtown Clermont. Our server, Kathleena, served the seven of us without a hitch. She was excellent, attentive, and personable. She always checked in on us, even though the place started to get crowded. My mom and I ordered, the white sangria. It is not made in a pictcher, but by the glass. The taste depends on who makes it and I liked it better the second time around when the bartenders switched. I also ordered the smoky apple cider margarita and it was a hit. For appetizers, I ordered The Nash Duck, which was five fried duck legs. It was delicious! It was served with biscuits and pickled cucumbers. My sister ordered cheddar biscuits and southern corn muffins, and the other sister ordered the beet salad. I didn't taste what they ordered, but they liked what they had. My dinner order, as well as my mom's, was the chefs catch of the day - red snapper over mushroom risotto with brussel sprouts. It was very very good! My mom, who is difficult to please, enjoyed her meal. One sister ordered the roasted veggie risotto, and the other one ordered the same but added shrimp. They both enjoyed their meal. My brother ordered the Romain Caesar with chicken and he liked his order and my daughter ordered the southern chicken sandwich with fries. Her boyfriend ordered the country fried New York strip. They said everything was very good. If you find yourself visiting the hills of Clermont, FL, be sure to stop in and visit. You won't be disappointed. ”

“ This has nothing to do with Southern on the 8th but if there's one thing I must warn first time Downtown Clermont visitors, don't go the first Friday of the month!! It's their Food Truck evening and parking is a nightmare! Uber is your best bet. Lesson learned. On to the restaurant. We made reservations and we were immediately seated. Our server was friendly and attentive. She mentioned the special for the evening which I went with. I had the fish (sorry, can't recall what kind of fish) and paired it with Sauvignon Blanc. The meal was delicious. The fish had a nice hollandaise sauce that went well with the carrots and the asparagus. We sat inside but for those wanting to experience live music, outdoor seating is the way to go. It's a farm to table type of restaurant and one I would visit again when I'm back in this neck of the woods. ”
