Started off a bit underwhelming due to some miscommunication and unorganization. However, they were able to turn it around and my team had a great time. It is a small restaurant and not really equipped to handle large parties(we had 20 ppl) so it started off slow but turned into a nice time. The food was great. Calvin, Kay and Jordan were great and took good care of us. I am not sure if another gentleman was the manager but he was the least engaging and for a party spending thousands of dollars at your establishment, I would have expected him to come out and greet us. Overall we had a great time.

The place is amazing; the atmosphere is wonderful, and the food is great. The catfish sandwich is delicious and has very little breading, so you can taste the fish. When we last went, there was a Juneteenth event and the vibe was great.
