44 April 2021 for the folks in Fayetteville. His staff will tell you he's even been known to bring home a fresh catch to serve at the restaurant. But it's not just the alfresco experience that keeps us returning to Latitude. We also enjoy dining indoors – in a space filled with warm woods, ceiling fans and nautical or beach-inspired art that doesn't go overboard. On a recent Friday aernoon, my dining companions are Janice and James Melvin. It's not the couple's first visit to Latitude. eir office, Vine & Branch Capital, a financial services company, is just a stone's throw away. We ask our affable server, Ryenne, for a recommendation on an appetizer to share, and she doesn't hesitate. "It's not tropical," she says, adding that she would order the popular Southwest egg rolls. Within minutes, we are savoring the crunchiness followed by a filling of smoked chicken, black beans, corn, jack cheese, red bell peppers and spinach, with a remoulade for dipping. For an entrée, Janice orders grilled chicken tacos with crispy sweet potato fries, and there's enough to pack up for leovers. James approves of his Philly cheesesteak with enough fries to feed himself and a flock of seagulls. My choice is the shrimp and cheese grits, topped with a creamy sauce and chock-full of shrimp, andouille sausage, bacon and chopped green onions. It's a rich choice for lunch, but worth every bite. As we chat, happy music with an island beat plays at a pleasing timbre, folks enjoy conversations at socially distanced tables and the sounds of light laughter emanate from the bar. We may be in Fayetteville, but it feels delightfully like Florida to me. Latitude 35 Bar & Grill is open every day but Monday.
