The restaurant was closed. Read online where closed in January 2024 for improvements. Should not be listed as open or accepting reservations. Drove there only to find it was closed. Extremely inconvenient!!
We made a reservation and when we arrived there was a hand written note on the door that said “Closed - please check instagram” .....and the last post in IG was back in January NEVER AGAIN

This placed did not pay the rent for one year and they are closed and failed to let the public know. The system still takes reservations as if they are open. I made my reservation for Valentine's Day and when we got there a hand written sign was on the door not saying they were closed permanently but to call number which no one answered. I was highly upset with this situation.

Food was surprisingly decent and hot. Cool vibe, Music was loud but good. Automatic gratuity was a bummer, staff are nice.

Well my experience wasn’t the best , especially for the prices in this place! I ate some jerk wings , which were not cooked all the way through, and then the absolutely ridiculous prices for the drinks are a no , and the floor is horrible to walk on, especially if you have on heels! They valet park for what? It was definitely overpriced and overrated!

I had guest from out of town so we made reservations here. When we arrived, the establishment was CLOSED. No signs, no update to my reservation, NOTHING! I'm very disappointed
CONS: $40 valet to start. Waited for a table for 40 mins+, with a reservation. $100 for a buffet. PROS: The vibe/music seemed cool prior to finding another restaurant to dine at for brunch instead. Will try again for dinner maybe.

They make you pay for your food soon as you sit down, crab legs is included in the bottomless buffet but it takes them 30 minutes to bring them out and you barely get a cluster...they make you get up after 2hr...crab legs taste old and over cooked, not a good experience for my bday?
We were there celebrating an event and it was our first time. Unfortunately, our experience came with a 2+ hour wait for food, with some people never receiving their meal. The fortunate thing is that the general manager took care of the bill (after some condescension as though he was doing us a favor by removing some—but not all—items from the bill. But nonetheless, it was done). Honestly, I would recommend this place as a “nightlife/bar/lounge spot, but I wouldn't return for a sit down dinner. Or, if you like cigars, there's a room for that too. So...generally not great, positive outcome. Go check it out for yourself. My experience may have been an anomaly.
Attempted to dine in here while in DC for the NYE holiday. Made a reservation for 4 ahead of time. When we walked in the hostess seemed confused about where to seat us. Once we were finally seated my friends and I sat for 15mins with NO water, menus etc. There were other tables being serviced, but no one paid attention to ours. Not one waiter greeted us in 10-15mins we sat watching 2 or 3 walk by... we decided to walk out due to poor service.

Service was extremely slow. Arrived to our table and waited 30min before receiving water. Food was mediocre. The price for alcohol and the fee for paying with a credit card is outrageous

My lady was upset they didn't have the Ribeye or calamari she wanted...other than that just needs to add salt and pepper to their dish... Everything taste bland. After the S&P you good!!! Drinks were strong. Our waitress was great!!!

I REALLY wanted to like this place.PROS: The owner is SO nice. We told him it was our first time there so he got a staff member to give us a tour of the entire place. Then throughout the night he checked on us twice to make sure we were having a great time. Go-go band was great! The DJ was equally as great!CONS: We ordered drinks at the bar… they were out of coke and ginger ale so we couldn’t have those as our mixers. They were out of cherries for an old fashion. We ordered from the late night menu (or tried to), but the only thing they had to offer was wings. Everything else was out of stock (including any seafood options). I ate my wings there and my sister ordered wings to go. The wings were delicious, UNFORTUNATELY I GOT FOOD POISONING! My sister ALSO GOT FOOD POISONING the next day because I didn’t warn her on time (oops).I may come back to give it another shot bc I love supporting black businesses & the owner really did everything to make the experience enjoyable for us, but it’ll take some time.
