Services was great. Drinks were great. Ambience was cute. The food, however, was not impressive. I may return for drinks and apps but definitely not for entrees.

Food was flavorful, but portion size of the food is very small for the price, especially for the pizza and pastas.

Don’t sleep on the Soul Chicken. We ordered the Mighty Marinara (lobster pasta) it was subpar. The manager made his rounds, asked us about our food, we let him know we weren’t fans of the dish, he quickly asked what did we want to replace it without any hesitation. That’s when we got the Soul Chicken and the first bite was bomb! Our server told us it was, but reading an Open Table review, we went for the “lobster pasta” you can literally pass on it. Get. The. Soul. Chicken. Lol. BOMB! Poppin pep pizza is really good as well. Will come back for the Truffle and Bacon & Clam pizza. Great job
