The sweet potato cornbread, and everything else we tried, was amazing! We will definitely be coming back.

This a wonderful restaurant! We had the special which was smoked sausage sandwich with onions and peppers and it was delicious. Their French fries are also great. Service was very good and the restaurant is warm and cozy. Definitely recommend!!

Me and my wife were treated terribly. We were seated and no waitress or waiter came to take our order. We were the only black couple there. seen two white families get seated and served immediately. We left and called the Manager and he said he wasnt going to make up for their mistake. I recommend if you are white...if you are black do waste your time

Five minute walk from the Embassy. And the music alone was worth three times the walk. Jazz was spot on and loved the high brass. The food, was OUTSTANDING and without any disparaging element. Wife had the Red Rice and I had the Catfish. We will take the 35mile detour out of our way to come back. Ms V the bartender is awesome.

This is a cute place with very thick southern taste. I felt like I was in an old southern movie when dining there. I ordered a DC burger, it was a sweet size and I love their pickled okra on the side. The bbq shrimp and grits is only available for dinner and weekdays, which is a pity. The waitresses and the manager (maybe, I'm not sure) both were nice and try to answer our questions on the food. For parking, the parking lot is free for sweet potatoes customers next to the restaurant. The only thing is that the floor and table top were kinda sticky.

Sadly we just showed up looking forward to lunch and the sign on the door says they are closed and needing to "regroup" for lack of staff. So this restaurant is closed for the time being.

You need to be a sweet potatoes. And the food is fabulous.Parking: Parking is the pay or street parking so might have to search or pay. You can just drive around hey You will find a free space eventually.

They seem to be very short staffed and the poor bar tender/waitress was running like crazy and wore out. We had to ask for a menu. We had to ask for things like water, napkins, silverware multiple times before we got them and my husband was very irritatedby that. However, the food came out relatively quickly and was hot and fresh. We got ribs, fries, okra, and fries chicken, all of which was pretty tasty to me. The portions were a nice size. The alcoholic beverages we had while sitting at the bar were very well made--I was tipsy off of 2 drinks lol! Overall I enjoyed it and would return again.
