The food and waitress were both very good, however the management completely ruined our experience. We arrived at 10am on a Saturday and there were many open tables. We told the host we would either be 3 or 4 (we weren’t sure if our friend was able to make it) and she told us we could only sit with a full party so we told her we were 3 but our friend may join later. We then got seated at a table for 4. About 20 mins later (before we ordered) when our friend arrived, the manager told her she could not come in and sit at the empty seat at our table and she had to leave. He then continued to tell us that we lied to him, when we clearly told the host we were unsure if there would be 3 or 4 of us. It was pretty ridiculous anyway because they sat the 3 of us at a 4 person table anyway and we are paying customers so why would he kick her out? The waitress was pretty embarrassed by his rude behavior because he made us feel totally unwelcome. The waitress was great and I ended up having a nice meal but I won’t be going back!

The food was great but it was so crowded we waited 45 minutes. We had a party o 8 of which they cd not seat more then 7. They don’t do reservations. Then when they brought the bill the manager came over & asked if we cd hurry up because they had others to seat. Overall while the food was good I would not return because it’s too cramped in there & my bill was over $100 I did not appreciate being rushed to leave table by a manager.

Where do I start? Nice menu, lots of options. I arrived at this restaurant with the intent of enjoying a great cheat meal with my daughter. Oh boy was I wrong. A huge disappointment. My daughter order a skillet with veggies $.75 each and jerky chicken sausages $4.00 (nothing jerky about it). Which was very bland, my daughter who is a foodie was unable to eat her food and didn’t care to take it with. I ordered the jerk shrimp and grits and side of catfish ☹️. Again, nothing jerky about the shrimp, just grilled. Very impressed with the purple grits(love them) but the lobster bouillon which tasted more like jar chicken and turkey salty gravy was not it. The catfish possibly (Swai) was salty and sent back due to my beliefs of not actually being catfish because of the texture. Catfish is my favorite so i know the difference. After an expensive tab you would expect toast or a biscuit to come with each order but nooooo that’s an extra charge. Coffee only option is half and half or a flavor syrup is what I was offered. I’d suggest adding flavor cream for those who would like a more flavorful cup of coffee. And possibly adding fried green tomatoes. I will not be returning to find out if the coffee options changes. Good luck to those that still choose to spend hard earned money there.

Went on Sunday afternoon the place was packed, people were hangry and very impatient. The place is small so there was a long wait for a big party we had 7. While waiting we spoke with owner, Once seated the waiter was nice. We ordered drinks while we looked at menu. Average price for this type of restaurant. The lunch was good. The ones who had breakfast stated it was just ok. The overhead music was loud, making it difficult to have conversations. Overall it was an experience.

The food was exceptional. However, the space was somewhat limited. I believe that this restaurant could thrive and expand if the seating area were slightly larger. I found that everyone was overbearing, and the music was excellent, but it could be enhanced by a larger capacity. Consequently, I would not recommend a future visit .

This place is an absolute vibe. Went for my birthday in October for the first time and it was lit. The server was lit and the owner Derek was so cool. Came back in November and it was still a bomb. Derek was there and he definitely earned his spot. Definitely chill spot and the food is amazing. worth your money ❤️❤️

I stopped coming here once my server told me that they do not get the service fee. How shady.
Otherwise this would be on our regular brunch rotation.
