Very glad this place caught my eye while visiting with my sister and she was showing me around downtown! Great food, fantastic... cocktails, and the servers were extremely friendly. We sat out on the patio on a beautiful day and I can’t think of anythingbetter! Read more
Thus was my first visit. It definitely won't be my last. From start to finish, the food and drinks were on point. The dimmly lit... place was buzzing with patrons on both floors at 6:45p on a comfortable 60 degree Friday evening. We waited downstairs for lessthan the 30 minutes projected. Wanting seafood, we started with the Voodoo shrimp on suggestion of the waitress. It did notdisappoint. The shrimp were plump and the sauce a perfect blend of twang and seasoning with warm crusty bread. We added drinks.I got the Sophisticated Honeybee. Delicious. Not too strong or sweet. Again, a perfect blend of both. He a Stella. We moved toentrées, ordering the Shrimp Cobb Salad with all the trims and tossed in the perfect amount of vinaigrette and an oversizedtenderloin basket with chips. It was meaty, not just thin and crusty. Then the dessert finale! The coconut cheesecake rivalsCheesecake Factory! The pineapple-lime sauce and passion fruit take it a whole other level! Apparently they're known for theirraw oysters on the half shell. I (and many others) suggested they try other ways of preparing the oysters...charbroiled, baked,grilled, or fried. I'll be back regardless ???? Read more
Went to The Den at St. Burch a couple weeks ago and was excited to finally try their food. Back when this was Atlas, I always... got the Mac and cheese so I was excited that was an item that translated over to this menu. Our table split the pimento dip andtruffle fries and I also got the green goddess salad which was really good! My partner got the buffalo chicken wrap which wasdelicious. Overall the food was great. I do think that it’s expensive, especially the drinks considering the size of theircocktails. I thought the same when we went to their bar as well last time. Our service felt a little rushed as well. We will goback to try more food here but will probably skip drinks. Read more
Excellent Seafood Mac and Cheese! The oyster bar is impressive. The East Coast and West Coast oysters were awesome! The staff... was very knowledgeable of the types of oysters and recommendations from the menu. Hope to return soon! Read more
The service was REALLY slow. It took 15 minutes to get our drinks. 30 minutes for our appetizers. Over an hour for entrees. The... food is also overpriced. For example, I ordered the standard burger with a beyond meet patty and it was $18. The burger was verybasic and could have been made at home for a fraction of the cost. Moreover, my friend orders fries with their meal but theyreceived chips instead. Surprisingly, they quickly brought over an order of fries. Unfortunately, they were cold. Literallycold. Don’t wast your time or money here. Read more
Food: 9/10 Service: 9/10 Price: 8/10 Cleanliness: 9/10 Will I go back: Definitely! Unique thing to taste:... Cocktails… ————————- We went to St. Burch during happy hour on Friday. We were immediately greeted and sortedoutside. We had two different cocktails, both of which were amazing! The happy hour price was extremely reasonable for thecocktails. We also had the oysters, 3 east coast and 3 west coast oysters for ~$15. They were all very fresh and tasty. I willdefinitely be back to try more cocktails and the other foods. Definitely recommended. Read more
