I had mixed feelings about the experience. The atmosphere was cozy, and the servers were friendly, but the overall dining experience left much to be desired. I ordered the chicken (fried thigh meat) and waffle, which cost $21. Unfortunately, the dish felt overpriced—while the chicken was decent the waffle was quite thin. For that price, I expected something more substantial or better executed. Additionally, there was a surprise 4% "Kitchen Appreciation Fee" added to the bill, which the servers did not disclose beforehand. While I support tipping and appreciation for the kitchen staff, I believe it's important for restaurants to be transparent about these extra charges. Overall, the service was good, but the combination of average food, high prices, and hidden fees made the experience somewhat underwhelming.

1 hr wait on a Sat at 11:30 for a party of 4. Parking is on street. A couple of exterior benches for a few waiting patrons. Booths are tiny. Food was good, pricey. They add a kitchen staff tip automatically onto your bill. They have a couple of sandwiches and a burger option too. We moved to the outdoor patio area located in the back....it's all boarded up and we felt like we were seated in a shed with pretty paper lantern lights strung around. Just too pricey for breakfast.

Worth the wait, best fried chicken brunch I've ever had. Didn't realize gravy could be so good. The cold brew and cocktails were also fantastic. Wonderful spot 10/10

Cozy eatery with lovely art decor on the walls. Enjoyed their Mother Clucker dish
Stopped here on a road trip from Maine to Philly. Needed to find a breakfast joint and this place was awesome! Staff was courteous and the food was delicious. Also had a unique menu that has something for everyone!

Went here for late breakfast and it was not too good. I heard from friends who lived here, social media, and Bon Appetit that this place was amazing. I should have been a bit suspicious because this place advertises itself as Southern/cajun and I’ve lived in almost all of the places where these were popularized (NYC—chicken and waffles; Texas—biscuits and white gravy; North Carolina—shrimp and grits and one of the places where fried green tomatoes were popularized—my grandmother made them all the time; etc.) I’ve really had enough of this kind of food for one lifetime. I got breakfast jambalaya and it was wet, sloppy and not good. My wife got the regular eggs hashbrowns toast; it was fine. I’m giving two stars because honestly I probably ordered the wrong thing and even much better cooks than the ones here couldn’t make a dish with eggs and rice (that wasn’t egg fried rice) taste good. Actually, it tasted like egg fried rice with way too much eggs.
The other thing: our waitress was doing her best but it was really frustrating that it took about 30-40 minutes for our food to come while every other table around us including some people who ordered 20 minutes after us got their food before us. I think it might be my fault again because I ordered the jambalaya disaster (see picture; literally almost everyone else in the place was eating either chicken and waffles or the chicken sandwich.
Anyway I won’t go back but it is worth noting that while waiting for our food to come I noted that all the tables who came in after us and got their food before us seemed to be enjoying their giant plates of chicken and waffles.

this rating is based on the restaurant’s advertised “wheelchair accessibility,” which led my family to choose this restaurant for a Sunday brunch. this building is in no shape or form “wheelchair accessible;” there are steps into both the dining room and the patio and the space is far too small to properly accommodate even a 16x16 manual wheelchair.
the food itself is entirely serviceable, and the staff were very accommodating. if you don’t need wheelchair access, this is a fine choice. if you’re a wheelchair user, go elsewhere, or prepare for an “interesting” experience.
Wheelchair accessibility: this restaurant is *not* wheelchair-accessible, at least without considerable effort. the front entrance only has one small step, but due to the location of the interior door it’s very difficult to navigate even in a compact manual wheelchair. the “accessible” bathroom has one grab rail, but the door swings in and the room itself is too small for a wheelchair user to close the door after entering. there is a maximum of two available wheelchair-accessible seats in the dining room.
Best Eggs Benedicts n Town. Loved the corned hash too

As someone traveling from Georgia, I was definitely skeptical of the claims to be a “Southern Kitchen,” and it definitely lived up to the name. Very friendly staff, fun atmosphere and innovative takes with fresh ingredients on traditional southern breakfast items. 12/10 recommend

The special Nashville Hot Eggs Benedict was great. The waffles are delicious too. Biscuits and gravy were...ehh.. they're average for a "southern" place. Still worth going. Lots to choose from and the staff was amazing.
