The food was fantastic, the service was excellent, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. My husband and I made a reservation for our anniversary, but I failed to mention that on our reservation. Despite not knowing that we were celebrating, we were still treated extremely well. Alexa, our server, was so sweet, knowledgeable about the menu, and really did everything she could to ensure we had a lovely experience. The cocktails were deliciously crafted. The salmon and the short rib entrees were amazing, but the cornbread absolutely stole the show! I hope they take my idea about a cornbread sampler and invite us back to try it. We will definitely be back.

The service was excellent and the food was delicious. We had chicken and french toast which might sound unusual, but was delicious. The staff was very attentive and made sure that we had all that we needed. They also have a fantastic selection of Scotch and bourbon. I had the 1861 Manhattan which had a touch of brown sugar. It was awesome. I’ll definitely be going back and have recommended the restaurant to other friends.

Sunday brunch was exceptionally impressive. The French Toast my daughter ordered was decadent in the very best sense of the word while my Chicken and Waffles surpassed all expectations. Finally, my Bloody Mary had a nice kick to it. Definitely worth a return visit.

My cousin and I tried this place after having it saved for a year as Places to Go in my list. The music playing as you entered set a cool vibe. Our waitress, Sydney, gave us some great food recommendations. I had the sausage gravy and my cousin had the shrimp and grits over mashed potatoes. Scrumptious. One final note, try the Brunch Punch…. one warning: it will sneak up on ya. We will be back.

Fantastic food, fantastic service and fantastic atmosphere! We celebrated our anniversary here and had the best time. The entire staff was friendly, informative and attentive. I specifically chose this place because they had fried green tomatoes on the menu. I am from the south and have been craving them something fierce. This place did not disappoint. The fried green tomatoes were perfect and the goat cheese and remoulade were the best addition to take them up a notch. I had the bees knees and the alchemist punch, at the recommendation of our server, both were an excellent balance of fruity and sweet. The hot honey salmon was delicious and had the best carrots I’ve ever had. The food was so good I couldn’t wait to eat my leftovers and had them for breakfast. So glad we found this cute little place and can’t wait to try more!

This place is the real deal. Excellent food, service and atmosphere. The vibes are so chill. The drink menu is as well thought out and tasty as the food menus. I have been here a few times and it’s one of my most recommended eateries in an hour radius. This particular visit we had the 1861 Manhattan, smooth with the right amount of vermouth and bitters. We also ordered the WuTang, creamy and sweet, perfect for brunch and the Killer Bees Attack, you can taste the ginger honey and the attention to detail in the drink.

For our meal we had Lucille’s Chicken and Waffles and the Peach Cobbler Waffles. The waffles taste fresh made and the chicken was seasoned perfectly.

The service here is impeccable.

Our waitress was wonderful. Service was good. Food was delicious with a great range to choose from. We drove up from baltimore and it was worth the trip even though we arrived an hour before closing. The Atmosphere felt like home.

I absolutely love this restaurant. The service, food, and vibe are amazing. I will say the food was better when dining on a Saturday as opposed to a weekday, but the food was still really good. Murphy has been my server each time and she’s amazing. Very kind, patient, and gives great recommendations. She’s one of the best servers I’ve ever encountered, and we travel everywhere for food lol! We brought my son for his 4th grade promotion and she made him feel so special, he couldn’t stop talking about his experience. We will be back, and hopefully Murphy will be our server again! Back to the food: we had the Brussels sprouts, garlic sticky wings, all the cornbread options except sweet potato, oysters, soul bowl, French toast and chicken, the short rib bowl (unsure of the official name), the bowl with the grits and crab, and all of the sides. I wasn’t a fan of the grits, they were undercooked. Our favorites were the Brussels sprouts, the plain and blueberry cornbread, wings, the soul bowl and rib bowl. And the drinks were also phenomenal! They were strong and tasty!!

One of the best spots in Delaware to get homestyle southern style food with a Creole twist! I was very impressed. Love tI always have to take an order to soul bowl, smothered salmon and the lamb chops are a must try. It’s something about the combination of flavors in each dish. And the Brussels… never in my life could I ever think they could taste this amazing. I plan to come back to until I’ve tried everything on the menu at least once.
