“One of my favorite restaurants in Ohio City. I love that they keep the menu small to me that’s a sign that everything’s good. Small menus mean fantastic food because they have time to master the skills to continue creating the meal. The bar tender was great drinks were really good and well made. Our waitlist was awesome, hostess was pleasant. You can tell they have a great working relationship.“

“Having a tip automatically added to the bill of two people is off-putting. For the record, I'm a good Tipper. I did actually add to the 15% automatically added because our server was awesome. But tipping is an addition, not part of the bill. Heck, add it to the cost of the food and I'll pay it. but not in tipping. that's my choice.“

“The food and atmosphere is amazing. I’ve been there twice now and we loved everything. Do yourself a favor and get a purple rain or a jolly rancher drink. It may have given me diabetes but it was worth it. 😂 the honey chicken was great but the soul food pasta was to die for. I highly recommend this place. The only thing better than the food was the service. Our waiter was very attentive and made his own personal recommendations on what to eat. I wish I could remember his name to give him credit but we’ll be back again!!! Update: Harold was our server and he is the greatest.“
