Food is a bomb in good customer service in everything hitting every dish

Juan Veliz Flores

The dining experience here is exceptional—impeccable service, exquisite cuisine, and an elegant atmosphere. Truly one of Chicago’s finest establishments. Highly recommended for any occasion.

My first time trying this place and I must say it’s not what I expected 😩 I ordered the Cajun salmon Mac and cheese and string beans and white potatoes… I paid like 28 bucks and the salmon was so small not to mention I went back to ask was it Cajun and he said it’s Cajun it’s not suppose to be spicy… but when I tell you it had no flavor at all! The Mac and cheese was so flavorless… it was creamy and cheesy but not good and Mac and cheese is my favorite food! The string beans were very good but bit was a potato in sight … disappointed as a first time customer

Food on the run was so delicious. It literally had me on stop for 3 hours. I laid down for a 1-hour nap and woke up 3 hours later

Parking: The location on 51st is about to reopen. It was not open when I visited Chicago. The only location that was open then was the Ashland Ave location

(2.5⭐️) The food was meh, didn’t live up to hype. Came right when they opened at 2pm sunday. I thought the food would be good and fresh since they just had opened. The sides were barely warm. The corn bread muffin was CRUNCHY, the corn mill was gritty. Smoked turkey leg was big but they sell stuffing not dressing, ifykyk. I’d try them again but order something different. They skimp on the portion compared to what’s advertised. The yam salmon was a 10/10. The workers are too busy talking to customers vs packing the food that just came out. They are alittle expensive too for what we ordered.

I ordered the Cajun salmon w/ Mac & greens beans & I ordered the creole chicken w/ the same sides…everything tasted like it was cooked 2 days ago. You can tell the Mac and green beans have been warmed multiple times. Now this morning my stomach is upset. I will never eat there again. Spend $70 which was a waste of money

The food was delicious. The service was amazing. I met the owner and told her how much I enjoyed the food. There was a little delay in getting the food but it was well worth the wait. I had Stuffed Salmon with the best mashed potatoes and veggies. The serving was large enough to share. Everything bite was better than the next. I did dine in and the place is very nice with music and a bar for drinks. I might have my birthday party there. If you can don’t run stop and stay a while and enjoy!

July 20, 2024 Review: I placed an online order for smothered wings with potatoes and broccoli. In addition I ordered a lemon pepper salmon with potatoes and broccoli. We added a slice of sweet potato pie for dessert. I spent $50 for this meal and everything, but the salmon filet was good, my husband received2 oarty wings for his smothered chicken and the sides had a filmy/soapy taste to it. It is unfortunate because I have been a supporter of this establishment since they opened. The sweet potatoe pie looked like vomit or feces. I did not even gamble trying to taste the pie. I do not have to visit again. My rating went from 4 stars in 2022 (see below) to 1 star in 2024.

2 years ago, 2022: Great meals are prepared by this hidden neighborhood gem.

Im so upset I order stuffed chicken and they gave a stuffed chicken soup, god know what the liquid was inside the container, but it was disgusting and it smelled terrible. Really wish I could give you guys zero stars. Just save your money and go somewhere else
