Private Property never disappoints me. The food is always fresh and full of flavor. The shrimp is grits are my favorite! The grits are thick and the sauce is super flavorful. The prime rib was cooked perfectly and paired nicely with those creamy mashed potatoes! The crab cakes were delicious, you really can taste the crab. Staff are always so nice and helpful. The restaurant is clean and provides beautiful seating both inside and out. Looking forward to returning!

This is our favorite restaurant near home - food has always been very good and is reasonably priced based on quality and service. Service has always been very good, and we usually sit in one of the smaller rooms overlooking the patio area. The only drawback is that most tables are on the small side, so squeezing three people in can be a challenge. That is not a reason to avoid going!

Summary: We LOVED it! Perfect for a date night! Logistics: I would recommend getting a reservation, but we showed up on a Friday night as a party of 2 and only waited 20 minutes. There is a parking lot across the side street that had plenty of space. They have inside and outside space and both are so cute! We got the Cajun popcorn (crawfish) as an appetizer and it was yummy. The dip was a good flavor and not overwhelming. It's an off-season for crawfish so they were a little smaller than normal but still really good! His old fashioned was delicious. I got a mule which was okay - I just think I didn't care for their ginger beer. Our waitress was super friendly. She never rushed us and checked in at just the right pace. For our entrees, he got a steak, the mashed potatoes and the Cajun slaw. His steak was delicious but the cook was a little over what he asked for. The mashed potatoes were out of this world and the Cajun slaw definitely had some kick to it. We'd probably skip the slaw next time. I got a scallop special with green beans and the fried cream corn. Everything was perfectly cooked and DELICIOUS. The scallops were so buttery and had an amazing flavor. The green beans were fresh and roasted. We loved the fried cream corn and wish we had ordered two orders of this. I don't know how to explain but the flavor and texture were amazing. It's not breaded or anything so take the "friendly lightly. Just order it! I promise. I wish we had space for dessert because the cheesecake looked amazing but I ate my whole meal and couldn't have eaten anything else if I tried.

Time: 7:01pm Staff: Friendly and welcoming Ambiance/Environment: Beautiful and pretty classy Appetizers: Cajun Crab Cakes They are really good and the sauce has some spicy to it. Shrimp and Grits The shrimp and grits were so good and delicious. Definitely recommend that too. Side; fried cream corn The fried cream corn was so delicious. Highly recommend that side. It's the best Just for me by myself: the total was $50.61 It can be pricey for some people but I had an appetizer, entree, a side, and a glass of sangria. Compared to other restaurants, it's actually pretty reasonable if you are by yourself and want to treat yourself. Do get a reservation if you dine in at the table. I went to the bar. The staff went above and beyond. Thank y'all for a wonderful experience, I hope to come back soon. First time here and thank you everyone for taking the time to read my review.

Our group had a lovely "Cajun cuisine evening" at Private Property. We were seated a few minutes after our reservation time of 6:00 on a Monday. I think we got the last parking place next to the building. The restaurant is about the furthest from a chain-type ambiance as you can get--a 100+ year old farmhouse. All of the dining areas are small, intimate rooms. The interior is very well appointed and clean! Our dining room contained about four tables and had a non-functional fireplace--a relic from a bygone era. While we could hear talking from across the hall coming from another room. Our spacewas very quiet--a welcomed plus! Most of the staff that we interacted with looked to be in their 20s. They were pleasant enough, but but weren't particularly congenial or welcoming, except for our server. She was very attentive and had a nice personality. Toward the end of the meal, a gentleman who was dressed like a chef came by and asked us how we liked our meals. We all responded in the affirmative. We ordered some drinks and a couple of appetizers to share. My friend and I both ordered an old fashioned. A strong concoction indeed; no complaints. My wife liked the voodoo queen, which had lots of peachy flavor due to the flavored schnapps and vodka. We also ordered sangria, and that was good as well. The appetizers we recommend are the Cajun style eggrolls and the fried pecan encrusted pimento cheese. For our entrées, we had the blackened redfish, jambalaya, gumbo, and crawfish etouffee,' the fish was served with creamed corn, and fresh sautéed green beans. All the entrées were of a generous portion, and well seasoned. Nothing was too salty. I would add that they all had the proper authentic flavor. I can't say they were the best cajun food we've had, but very aesthetically pleasing and tasty. We rounded out the evening with a desert consisting of an ice cream topped cookie! The dishes we had looked and tasted good, and the atmosphere is one of my favorites! There are hundreds of nice pictures of the restaurant and the menu items. For what it's worth I'll add mine as well! Private property is definitely a winner !

The ambiance is nice and rather proper. They state that there's no dress code, but as a heads up I'd stick to somewhere around smart casual. The servers are polite and check in frequently. The food was pretty good, and I was impressed with the presentation of their drinks. The blackened alligator just kind of tasted like dry chicken on its own, but paired with the sauce it was much better. We also had the pecan crusted pimento as an appetizer, and I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was. For entrees we had the blackened redfish (green beans & creamed corn) and the blackened ribeye (green beans & mashed potato). The redfish was okay, but the creamed corm and green beans were more the stars of the show. The blackened ribeye tasted great and was perfectly tender. Over all: Blackened Alligator: 6.5/10 Pecan Crusted Deep Fried Pimento: 7/10 Blackened Redfish: 6/10 Blackened Ribeye: 8/10 The Empress (beverage): 10/10 Total: ~$106

Deliciousness! This place is beautiful on the inside. You could pass it by if you didn't know it was there. This was my first time. Me and a few friends stopped by here for dinner. It was beautiful to meet up with everyone after so long. I ordered the steak and crab cakes. They were amazing. Very well seasoned and cooked to perfection. My drink was also delicious. Our waitress was great. She worked a few tables with ours but she was spot on. She did phenomenal! The decor and atmosphere is really nice. It gives date night vibes. You will love it!
