Great Southern Compfort Food... Yes in Atlantic City

Category
I went to college in Virginia and have spent plenty of time in the Carolinas Tennessee, and Georgia.   I love my Southern comfort foods when I'm there.  Well, now I don't have to travel for some of my favorites.  After being open a year, I finally had the opportunity to try Redding's Restaurant in Atlantic City last night.  I was surprised and very happy to see they have a great menu and great food.   Most importantly they are very reasonably priced, something you don't always find in a resort town like this one.  I ordered two Blue Moon draft beers.  The bar tender gave me the bill.  I had to ask him if it was the normal price because they were $4.50 (not each for both).  I could not believe it because most places would have charged $10 or $15 for the same drinks.  The rest of the menu was also reasonably priced and looked delicious.  I was there for a concierge event so we had a sampling of several items.  I can't wait to go back again.  It will surely be a regular spot for me and definitely a place I send my guests.   Thanks Redding's
