Great place to unwind

We were in town for a quick weekend of relaxation. Using Tiktok we kept coming across videos recommending this lounge both for brunch and night life. So, we opted to make reservations for brunch (Highly recommend that you RSVP). Our reservation was for 12 noon when they open… We were immediately seated and served. They had a LIVE DJ with a nice vibe and the FOOD WAS DELICIOUS! “I’m a self proclaimed Food critic ☺️”and I give it a 10/10 My husband had the chicken and waffles with fruit toppings, I had the grits and catfish. The portions are plentiful… Everything exceeded our expectations! Our waitress was Z, very professional and on point!
SN: all booths have a small table like lounge tables so you have to hold your plate/bowl. No biggie 😊
Check them out if you’re in or near Indianapolis!

Visited for Sunday Brunch. A ticket was required for entry. The music was LOUD! Way too loud for brunch. My 24 year-old who frequently reminds me that she’s “young n turnt” said she couldn’t hear when we left the place after a couple hours. I 100% support a nice lil’ trap brunch with rap music, liquor and hookah. But the music didn’t have to be so loud that the highs were trilling. Good service though.
Food was good. Biscuits and gravy was full of sausage and was tasty. My daughter said the wings were the best she’s ever had and they were a simple dry rub. I was pleasantly surprised they had actual wings and not just tenders. My only complaint about the food is they didn’t have fruit for the waffles because it all “went bad”. However they still charged me for the fruit. Also, they automatically charge an 18% gratuity, but that is stated on the menu. Unfortunately, when you pay, you still get a “tip” pop-up. So I paid a 38% gratuity in total. If I return, I will make them print out my check so I can review it before paying. They just brought the machine and told me my total which sounded okay so I didn’t question it. That trust led me to miss the two billing issues. I won’t make the same mistake twice. Check your bill closely before you pay!

It’s entirely too loud in here. The food is overpriced. They put ice in our mimosa tower, directly into the liquid, not into a reservoir that keeps drinks cold. This place cannot call itself a brunch spot if you have to eat at tables that come to my knee caps, I’m essentially eating out of my lap. The sausage on the bowl tasted hotel sausage that’s been sliced. Everything was seasoned with creole seasoning and nothing else. When we got our $90 bill we almost considered arguing it down because it simply wasn’t worth $90.

The cost is outrageous!!! If you are looking for a budget friendly this is not it. Also the cost does not make the environment. But I will say the food was decent

They charge us to get in for a brunch event on Sunday when we were told it was free and then we didn’t even get to enjoy any of the food which we were told it was terrible. This place sucks and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

The place was cheaply refinished. It looks like a college party basement complete with particle board booths and cheap vinyl seats. We were frisked coming in. The wait staff was okay, but there was some guy just sitting there smoking a hookah. This is after they allegedly already got denied a permit for a hookah bar and have had the fire marshal called on them for smoking hookah once already. Also, it’s insane this trashy club has valet parking that takes up two public street parking spaces right along Virginia. I can’t believe they got approval for that.

I can’t wait for it to close so something good can go in that prime real estate. It can’t be much longer before they run out of money and shut down.

The atmosphere is amazing! However the service need some work. For Sunday brunch they are not prepared to serve customers at 1230. The cook was not there and we had to wait 45 minutes to place food order. We order the mimosa tower which was amazing. The food came out separate which is OK but the waffles were ice cold!. If an establishment opens at a certain time please be prepared to serve your customers especially when reservations were made the day before.

Charges a $20 entry fee per person, payable only through CashApp, despite having an uninviting atmosphere and subpar customer service…highly disappointing.
