    We were seated immediately upon arrival at opening, 430. Nautica, our server, was absolutely brilliant in describing everything. This was a very special birthday treat! We tried the salad flights and I made my own entree flight with shrimp and grits, Seabass and lamb chop. We even tried the dessert flight! Next time I will get the Seabass on its own because that was my favorite! Highly recommend! Plus, it’s so cool to be in the Broadnax building with that beautiful chandelier!

    I’ve always loved this place, and idk why I’m just now writing a review. I would come for special occasions, I.e birthday, anniversary and it’s always a 5 star dining experience! There is valet parking so you don’t have to worry about parking somewhere near by down town. And the flight pairing with the wines suggested are chef’s kiss! Appetizers that are good are the beef Wellington and the seafood trio. A friend had the deviled eggs and killed them so I’m assuming that’s good too. Highly recommend this place!

    Nov 17 had a most special birthday dinner here. The plated food absolute works of art. The taste, indescribable! Enjoyed every savored bite of my selections for the evening which consisted of lobster/scallop/Wagyu beef/chicken and waffles and a harvest salad second to none! So grateful to have received by my crème brûlée happy birthday candled surprise. Miss Vanessa is the epitome of superb fine dining servicing. She’s a native to the area and is a wealth of knowledge to us visiting the area for the first time. Warms my heart how proud she is of her city and all of the positive it offers. Cannot thank Flight enough for this special evening fitting us in. 4:30 upstairs overlooking the entire restaurant below truly magical :)

    This very well may be one of the best meals I have ever enjoyed. The service was top notch. The ambiance was perfect. A little dark, cozy, and comfortable. The flight options were perfection. Every dish that came out was cooked to perfection. The desserts were absolutely perfect. The cost is high, but the value is tremendous.

    First time coming here and have always heard it was great. I ordered the steak flight and subbed the zucchini on the wagyu for more potatoes and I will say, you can’t go wrong with more potatoes. The steak flight was delicious. Our servers were great too, explained how everything worked and my water was always full. We were sat in the wine cellar which was pretty cool, it was down a different set of stairs and had a better vibe to it. Overall it was a tad expensive but the food was worth it.

    I had the pleasure to eat here with my coworkers and managers as a celebration from our hard work. We were greeted with a friendly host and staff and introduced to our server Alexis. The staff was patient with us being a big table with different personalities. We ordered several appetizers to start and the devil eggs with fried oysters and bacon jam was a favorite. The flight concept of small portion meals and beverages was great for mixing and matching several items on the menu. We got to taste a little of everything. The Louisiana red fish was my favorite dish along with the lobster ravioli. Everyone enjoyed their meal and had a great time! Thanks to the chef, managers and servers for taking care of us!

    One of the coolest restaurants I’ve been to. You can choose any meat you want and turn it into a flight, mixing and matching pork, beef, or fish. The soup and salad flights were amazing too — you could easily just get those and leave without spending much. Great value for the amount and quality of food. The service was wonderful, and the ambiance was perfect.
