“Great to have Irma’s Kitchen open for the season. Checked out the newly remodeled lounge last night, nice modern rustic feel and new deck. We enjoyed some live music, as ever the best steaks in town. A mix of favorites and new items on the menu. If you eat nothing else have the crispy pork belly and scallops social plate, wow, served on blue corn grits, I discovered I can love grits, who knew? Great food, relaxed vibe, we’ll be back, if you love food this is where you should be eating.”
