Good food, good atmosphere, and good music (live music with The Flip Flop Man). I’ve eaten here several times and their food is consistently tasty; perhaps the best salads and salad options in town. I also give two thumbs up on their burgers. Chicken salad wrap is yummy, as well. I loved having live music available, and The Flip Flop Man is my favorite regional musician.
Had lunch here yesterday, on the advice of Lamar White Jr., and I must say I haven't eaten this much in a long time We had crawfish beignets (wow) and took some home for later. Also, a most excellent Reuben sandwich, which was divine but could have been heavenly if only a pickle spear was included on the plate. A shrimp po-boy and a chicken salad wrap were also very good. Highly recommended!
We were in town for work and have visited multiple times. That speaks to how good the food is. Monster sized burgers. The deviled eggs are to die for. I enjoyed the spicy pasta. There beer selection was somewhat limited.
The food was delicious and the waitress was attentive. The only improvement I can think of would be if they could turn the music down just a little so that people could Converse more easily at the table.
You must go to Spirits! This restaurant is amazing, our waiter Zoltan was knowledgeable of pairing wines with food and the drink menu. Our food was absolutely amazing! We had devil eggs and crawfish beignets (not pictured). My family ate them so fast, I could not get a picture. 😂 I had the shrimp and grits which was flavored to perfection. My husband had the surf and turf which he said was perfectly cooked! The children had the (kids hamburger and chicken tenders). Well, at the end of the night we could not decide on which of the three desserts we wanted, so we picked ALL three! They did not disappoint! We tip our hats to the chefs for perfect dishes throughout the night! We are a military family and have traveled around the world. This restaurant is certainly top of the list for best atmosphere, wait staff and food! Thank you for the experience!
This was my second visit to the location my first being a basketball ceremony. This was a dining experience like no other. We celebrated my daughter's 13th birthday and I tell you our service was on point "Zee" was our server who never let our water glasses empty and who helped make the night awesome! A new restaurant to add to our list!
What a great spot! Stopped into town for a work trip and came here twice in 2 days. I followed the reviews and ordered the crawfish beignets and they were on point. I normally don't like fried food but they were awesome! Also ordered the red snapper which was cooked perfectly. The second day I had the fried green beans...a little trick if you don't like ranch, order the beignet sauce with it! Amazing! Then the boss burger was huge and fantastic. The service was great, fast and friendly!
Great atmosphere. Live music. Large drink selection.
My all time favorite is the half spinach and half pasta salad with grilled chicken. I usually get that for lunch. The fried green beans, sushi poke and deviled eggs are so good! Also, the reuben...mmmm.
For dinner my faves are Tracey's chicken, sweet potato chicken and judges choice pasta. My newest favorite is the black + white tuna - oh my gosh so freaking good!
Incredible food, atmosphere, and service! This was my first time, but I'll certainly be back. Loved paying by phone too ;)
Update: It's still great, as of 4/8/2022
I remember when spirits first opened & I loved their spinach dip. I went here with a large group over the weekend and our server, Mrs Jackie took GREAT care of all 18 of us while waiting three other large groups. Service did move a little slower, but there was live music and a great deal of people in the restaurant, so it was expected. The drinks and food tasted as well as they were presented. For seafood however, I would recommend letting them know if you desire it cooked at a different wellness, as this isn’t often thought of. I see why they’ve lasted throughout the years, I’ll make sure I return the next time I’m in town!
