I had gone there with my boyfriend to celebrate a special occasion after learning much about the hype surrounding the restaurant. The food was average but the ambiance and service were extremely disappointing. Snob central. However, against my better judgement, I thought I'd give it another chance and took my parents there for my mom's birthday. To my horror, the service was again outrageously bad. The wait staff there are snobby without reason for being so (it's not as if they're working at a 4star restaurant like the Fearrington House). They ignored my parents for most of the evening and we left feeling like someone had robbed us blind. Don't ever go there unless you look like a WASP with lots of old southern money.
Pros: dessert
Cons: service and ambiance
