Two of my friends and I made it a day trip and we’re were no where close to being disappointed! The different ambiences was what I liked most. Our server whose name fails me was attentive but he also knew how to let friends get loud and enjoy each other’s company without interruption.

I would say the biggest thing was the service was just okay. I wish they had bigger cups because they were so small it almost felt like the waitress got tired of coming over to refill and that was a problem in itself we had to keep reminding her to refill drinks. Other than that no true complaint besides no timely refills and she did not check on the table like she could have it was not busy at all in the restaurant after we sat. Me and my wife came for our 1 year wedding anniversary and kind of wished we went somewhere else for a better experience but the food was good just wish they would work on the other small things.

I came tho there with a group of my friends. The vibe was amazing. I didn’t really like my drink and some of my friends ordered pasta we didn’t like the pasta and we sent it back to switch out for what we wanted instead, the server was great with that but the female came over there and so hostile and was so rude. I went there to want to enjoy my birthday, but I also didn’t like how the changed my reservation to 9pm and the manager told the hostess that they talked to me when they didn’t, and also we waited a while for our food and when our food got there we didn’t even get to really enjoy it because somebody else reservation came in and they were pretty much rushing us up from the table. But overall experience definitely could have been better. I will definitely be going back and try to experience it differently without a big party.

The food, service, and atmosphere lived up to our expectations. We had the catfish which reminded us of how catfish is fried back at home in GA. We will definitely be visiting again.

They did not have fries did not have chicken and waffles so it was a limited selection of food choices as well. It was two different types of music playing due to a live performance and music playing overhead so it mixed up the atmosphere of what they were trying to give, and the owner was not really accommodating when wanting to let us sit on the outside part to enjoy the views we had to be seated inside, so the restaurant was OK. Wish it was a better experience since it is black owned.
