Check out "The Spot".. there's 6 restaurants inside. It's like a mini Union Market. Mostly Asian or Korean food but they do have a soul food place and a Boba/ smoothie place. There's also a bar in the center. Pool table and plenty of seating. Parking isn't an issue. There are other restaurants near by. I ate at the Korean taco spot and got a rice bowl with bulgogi. Good portion of food, priced well, and very tasty. I like the multi-restaurant buildings. It gives you the opportunity to try different places and have something salty/ savory and sweet.

My first visit, I had the Apolo burger and some of the finest onion rings I've ever eaten. The burger itself is more than filling.I'll be back shortly.The best was the customer service.

I made it simple since it was my first time and I was in a hurry.. but let's just say I'll be back soon. Yes overall the burger was just a burger (only because I ordered it that way) but the ambiance was something I really liked. Good music playing, good customer service as soon as a walked in and food came out pretty quick. I will definitely be back to try out the drinks. I think this a cute place to come back and chill during the middle of a work week. O and that slice of cake.... Don't pass on it!

4 stars for now, new to the area so I stopped in. I got the Lil build your own burger (choose ya toppings). Let me just say burger was fye, nicely cooked and juicy I went 11/6/23. Their lil peri peri sauce is good af. They have karaoke on Wednesdays from 5pm-9pm and on Fridays they have alive Jam Session from 630pm-830pm. Most definitely going back to try the menu!I didn't get a chance to get my servers name but she was Bad (she looked good).

Orders a small meal. Not because I had plans to go here today, but the band sounded amazing and I need a place like this to thrive in my area. I ordered a 3 piece chicken with fries as I sat outside and listened to the amazing group playing outside.I came to the The Spot about 2 weeks ago and heard the band and said to myself, I will be back. If anyone asks me for for suggestions for a nice small, super small spot to vibe at, I will tell them to come here. Fries were crisp, chicken was ok too.I came for the fries (smiles)Def glad I stopped by.

I went here with my brother for lunch and I was pleasantly surprised by this black-owned and operated burger spot. The staff was very friendly and you have the option to dine in or takeout. We opted to dine in. You pay for your food prior to sitting and everything was freshly prepared. The fish came out hot, extra crispy, well-seasoned, and moist. My burger was also cooked to perfection, and was not dry at all. The fries were hot and crispy. This place has a full bar and I am almost positive it turns into a lounge scene in the evenings. Because it was so early in the day, we opted not to get drinks, but I will definitely be back as the cocktails featured on the menu are at a good price point and the food was good. I will definitely be back again and I recommend that if you have not been here, that you should try it out.

We went on Karaoke Wednesday's during happy hour and service was great. We ordered the Southeast seafood burger with fries and the The DMV chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries. The seafood burger was delicious, it was whiting and shrimp minced into one, similar to a crab cake. The DMV chicken sandwich was juicy and delicious. The only downside was we had to order as if we were getting take out. It was kinda inconvenient that we had to order multiple times to get drinks but the taste of the drinks outweighed the annoyance of doing so.

This place is all atmosphere. The day I went, they were doing karaoke. There was lots of participation from the customers. Everyone was definitely having fun. They have a whole wall of local icons that speaks to teenage me. The service was friendly and I never felt forgotten. Now for the not so nice part. The burgers are pretty mediocre. Not bad, just not good. The chicken sandwich was the only thing my group would be willing to order again. So if you're looking for a party, this is your spot. But if the food comes first, I'd pass.

The food was great! I had the wings for the table and I had the chicken sandwich. The mumbo sauce addition to it was great! I didn't like the server wanted to debate about my order. I have no clue why her system had something completely different from what my order showed on my phone. I just feel like that wasn't my problem. But overall, I had a great time and would return!

This spot is a blast -- I met some friends there after work because I heard about a karaoke happy hour. Usually those things are separate -- people enjoy happy hour and THEN sing. But in this case, you can do both at the same time!!! It also gave me an opportunity to support a fairly new (2021) local Black-owned business.So I heard about how poppin' the place gets, so I was surprised by the size when I stepped in -- it was relatively small! The bar could hold... 6 people, and there was a high table for 3-4 folks near the front door. There was a long bench with some tables along it to allow for multiple groups of 4... Comfortably, I think 15-20 people can be seated. There's plenty of standing room, but if it gets crowded and you're just trying to order out, it can definitely be awkward for some. Maybe it's good they close at 9 -- any later and it'd be a CLUB lol. So I sat at the bar and saved a seat for my friend... by 5:45, I'd say the bar was pretty full... around 6:15, all the tables were. My advice is to get there as close to 5 as possible if you want your desired happy hour seating. They have physical menus and online menus -- you can order online, which I recommend because I don't think the staff really got to take a breather from the second I got there. Once you do that, your order, whether it be a drink or food, comes out in a reasonable time. Their happy hour is from 5-7, and offers 1/2 priced cocktails, $5 wines, and some deals on shots, rails and beers. I tried their sidecar and long island... that's some STRONG stuff, but for $7, very good! I was able to freely get water from the fountain machine nearby as well. They have a new turkey burger deal for $8 where you can customize it however you like! I decided to get jalapenos, mambo sauce, tomato and lettuce on mine. I really enjoyed it!! The bun, turkey patty itself and everything were delicious and flavorful! I would love to return there and try more of their burgers and such in the future. I will definitely be back.

Overall a fun little spot for a great burger, good music and good times. First off there is very easy parking. There is a private lot as the restaurant shares parking along a strip mall. This is a newer spot and it's kind of small but is like a hole in the wall bar. Drinks are strong. They host weekly Happy hour and karaoke on Wednesday. Drinks are half off during happy hour 5-7. They were very busy. I Recommend getting there as close to 5 as possible to have a seat. I ordered the Jive Turkey which is $8 right now and it's a Turkey burger that you can fully customize with cheese, bacon, veggies and the various sauces they offer including mambo sauce. They have a variety of other sandwiches and also serve chicken tenders. The sandwich was delicious and made fresh to order. Fries were also piping hot and perfect. You can order from the pay by phone app which is very helpful as it's quite noisy when it's busy. Definitely highly recommended and will probably be returning soon.

I went in and ordered take out as well as 2 lemon drops as I waited. I was offered a shot of vodka to try the new brand they were considering stocking and it was excellent. I went on to order the fish sandwich and the 4 pc tender and fries. I cannot speak highly enough about the salmon/ shrimp burger. It was seasoned to perfection. This I have to say was a pleasant surprise. The chicken tenders were also flavored well. The food was fresh and piping hot. Happy hour is truly a happy hour. This place is worth every penny paid!!!

The world, well my world, KNOWS that I love myself a professional burger!!! Undecided about where to even begin, because I like the works, it was recommended that I try the Apollo Burger... with the works!! It comes pretty standard but I agreed that added gilled onions, mushrooms, bacon, egg, and even avocado was more my burger style. The Apollo was juicy, well seasoned, and humungous! It was was too big for me to eat in one sitting but it made for even better leftovers. The DMV Chicken sandwich with mambo sauce that my guest had along with the Chicken Tenders was the bomb as well. I even sampled the Chocolate City Milkshake when I don't even like chocolate! It was sooo good & creamy, smooth, rich and quite chocolatey.When asked by Lonnie if I was familiar with The Real Milk & Honey located upstairs he offered to give me a tour while the remaining staff were closing & cleaning up. Historically, I stopped being a fan of the previous locations many many moons because of one bad customer service from Management but Lonnie assured me that a lot has changed and I promised to return soon.The owners were both extremely hospitable from beginning to end and left me pleasantly pleased and fulfilled. I can't wait return!
