Underwhelmed is my overall rating. The food was subpar and overpriced. Very friendly people working at the restaurant, and the atmosphere was pretty decent.
There was not enough chicken on my salad. Don’t let the picture deceive you. For $23 I should have a piece of chicken for every bite. I probably had about 1/2 of the salad left over. The Thai chicken lettuce wraps were tasty, but the lettuce served was warm and wilted. My husband said the breading on his salmon was not crispy, and it lacked seasoning. He also had a side salad. He said the champagne vinaigrette tasted like straight vinegar, so it lacked seasoning as well.
We were just a party of two, but they automatically put an 18% gratuity on the check. I think this really ends up hurting the server because even though we weren’t exactly happy with our food, we are always at least 20% tippers because we understand that the food served is not a reflection of the server. Once you put the 18% on there, and food was not very good, you get what you get.

Excellent atmosphere with a low noise level good for conversation. The food was amazing. I have the salmon blt and my wife had the short rib tacos. The salmon was flaky and not dry. The short was cooked to perfection. The service from the waitress was great. They do add an 18% gratuity but the service was worth more than that.

We went to The Block for date night and had a nice meal. It was a bit loud when we first arrived, making it hard to hear our conversation, but a group left shortly after and the volume leveled out. The service was incredibly efficient; we were in and out within 45 minutes! I ordered the Cajun shrimp pasta, and I was impressed that it came with plenty of shrimp and chicken. My husband really enjoyed his burger and fries. A solid choice for a quick, quality dinner downtown.

My wife and I had an amazing first experience at this establishment, everyone was so nice and friendly we were greeted right away with a smile and felt very welcomed. The vibe within the restaurant is amazing. Love the music going and atmosphere. Our waitress was very helpful and nice…we literally got our food and drinks within 15 minutes in a beyond packed restaurant. The food was INCREDIBLE! Seasoned and cooked to perfection….the Woodward wings I highly recommend, they were incredible along with the short rib skillet…unreal. If you are in the downtown area this place is a MUST try!

Happy Hour here is very worth it. Strong drinks for a good price. Our server was super sweet and attentive. We ordered the wings, salmon sliders, salmon with broccoli and garlic mashed potatoes and both cheesecakes for dessert. Everything was really good! definitely will be back soon.
Only complaint is that the music was up very loud and everybody seemed to be shouting to talk over it.

The seasonal mimosa with mint was the best thing I ordered. My eggs bacon and French toast were mid. The decor and atmosphere is so dope! I was def expecting more flavor when I ate my food. The dj was jamming soulful tunes and our bartender server was attentive and it didn’t take long to take our orders or bring the food. Even though they brought my eggs and bacon out and I had to wait for my French toast and since I wanted the picture, my food was not warm and I wish they brought everything out together overall it was a nice experience and I’m glad I supported this black business. Try them out for yourself and let me know what you think.
