The staff was very nice and took good care of us. Eggs were done perfect. The highlight was the lemon blueberry poppyseed pancakes. They are outstanding!

The ambiance was decent. The dining area felt like it was an after thought. There is limited seating. If you plan to go here and dine in please make a reservation or you won’t be seated. There is also no alcohol servered either. The juice or pop is served from bottles or pop cans as there is no soda machine. Me and my cousin went for our monthly SistaCuz date. Our server was nice and pleasant. The food came fairly quick. The portions were okay. We had the trio sampler for our appetizer of corn beef egg rolls, wings, and fries. That was all fresh. The entrees is where we weren’t too pleased. I had the steak bites, mac and cheese and yams. My Sistacuz had the lamb chops, mac and cheese and greens. Our Mac and cheese seemed like it was old and had been sitting for a while it was very dry. The greens felt the same as well despite sitting in some broth. They also give dinner rolls which were okay. Overall it’s not bad if you live on that side of the city. There were people ordering out frequently so some people enjoy it. Not sure if we will go back or not.
