Review of Sweetbay Restaurant & Bar

This was a special occasion night as it is pricey but for once we felt the food, cocktails and service were worth it. We had GF salmon taco appetizer, GF shrimp and grits, and GF chocolate mousse. All delicious. They have a nice outdoor seating area with fans, heaters and retractable roof and sides. Inside the bar was jumping and it was too noisy for us. And the smoked rye old fashioned was quite a production and delicious. I get the impression it can be quite a hot spot so you may need to inquire about safety, I just ordered items designated as GF on the menu. I recommend reservations, but we went on a Saturday in June.
