Southport Grocery - Improved Online Reviews

Problem

Brunch draws an insane demand and while diners taste buds are satisfied, serving a diner who has to wait can be downright painful, regardless of the server’s best efforts. While Southport Grocery and Cafe offered the neighborhood's favorite brunch meals, some visitors were left with a bad taste strictly in terms of the  lengthy wait time and publicly criticized the service staff.
