My husband and I went here for our anniversary dinner. We both thought it was phenomenal! Our server, Thor, was great, he was very knowledgeable and personable.

I had a terrific meal at Born and Braised. We started with the Thai basil mussels, which were rich, buttery, and full of flavor, plus the portion was very generous. For my entrée, I ordered the tiger shrimp and grits. The grits were creamy, the blistered tomatoes added the perfect touch of acidity, and all of the components of the …
