For those who for the last year have been wondering, “Oh, when will Brenda’s start serving in the original half of the restaurant?” the answer is now. Starting yesterday, they’ve fired up the old-but-now-remodeled half finally doubling their seating space, and in the process pretty much disavowed everything we had said previously in regards to the partial move. Now the space is open and free-flowing with a great set of antique mirrors decorating one wall and a cool aged mural on the other. It looks better in the inside and outside, having the whole (historical) building devoted to Southern goodness.
Writing this after having had dinner there tonight we have to say that the new space is coming together quite nicely much like the dinner menu which is falling in to place and laying out some solid plates. We even tried something completely new that we loved: their sweet potato dumplings, which are more like almost sweet ravioli with a heavenly creamy sauce. Oh, and the biscuits and beignets are still solid. Which you now have an excuse to go eat again, as y’all need to go check out the gorgeous new space.

Wow! The food, facade and decor look great!
I’m so ecstatic to see the expansion… I Love You Brendas! Pow! #cooldance
So less wait at brunch?
@etslee This town’s fascination with brunch never ceases to amaze me, but with twice the seating, I assume the wait would be less. The real catch at the moment is dinner as many people don’t know that they’re serving it and so you can pretty much always get right in. That and it’s damned tasty vittles.
