The drinks at this spot are phenomenal—easily a 10/10! I had the catfish and grits and it was absolutely delicious. Some people in my group felt the grits could use more seasoning, but as a true food connoisseur, I thought they were seasoned just right because that catfish was seasoned to the gods! If you haven’t tried this place for brunch yet, I highly recommend it. The vibe is super chill and perfect for couples.

I went on a Sunday and it wasn’t very crowded, which made for a relaxed atmosphere. The food was delicious and the drinks were great. They played mostly hip hop music, which complemented the Sunday Night Football game playing in the background. While I enjoyed the experience, I’d probably return during the day rather than at night, as the location isn’t near many businesses that stay open after dark.
Also, the bartender was friendly, welcoming, and patient. I recommend both the shrimp and grits and lamb meals.

Maybe Valentine’s night just wasn’t the night to go ♀️. We were seated immediately, greeted quickly, drinks came fast. But the food…I can’t leave a review because we never got it. Ordered salmon chips, waited an hour. Waitress only came out with 2 plates in that time period. Asked the waitress to just cancel the order and let us pay for the drinks. Of course the were magically “being plated” and couldn’t be taken off. We paid and left tip. Waited around another 20 mins and just left. We enjoyed a delicious Valentine’s dinner at home by the time we would have gotten them. Nice spot, good music, the service is just too slow to demand the prices and tips here. We definitely don’t mind paying for good service, but we won’t be back.

Waited 50 minutes to an hour for 3 sausages and a waffle. Never again. Edit: I was aware of what was included. What I was not aware of was that we would be waiting an entire hour for an order we were told would take 10 minutes. There was only one table of ladies at the restaurant dining in, it was not at all busy ,there is no excuse for the delay our order was paid for the same as theirs.

Just enjoyed dinner here. Food was tasty and server was friendly. Service was fast. My only cons were the plastic menus. Wish there was a better presentation.
