I used to order from here on Uber eats occasionally and the food was mad decent. Went in person last night and I really regret it. The food was subpar but perhaps because they were understaffed? The woman taking my order was very nice but couldn't work the machine to input orders correctly for like 5mins. Finally got my order in and proceed to wait 45mins for uncleaned and rubbery jumbo shrimp. The vein was not even cut or cleaned out. The fried shrimp were like hockey pucks. The Grilled Chicken salad was incorrectly served as a Caeser chicken salad and was dry even after my wife drowned it in dressing. The burger... Well I guess you could call it that, was inedible. The cheese steak egg rolls was the only thing that was hitting like it should but they were a tad salty.
Going in person ruined the mystique for me. The bar and lounge looked cool, but it was dead up in there and they played Drake songs all night. Yeah, Drake played out y'all, update your playlist.
I would come back with friends to the bar for hookah and some drinks but will never order food here again.
I honestly hope it was an off night, but 9pm on Humpday should have been more lively than it was and the service was meh 😕
Would not recommend even if you were starving.
Very dirty place. Tables were greasy and the staff didn't care. Should have left then, but it was late and my friends and I were hungry. What a mistake, food was tasteless and would have been better off going to get Wendy's down the street. Save your money and time.

I used to love this place a few years ago and moved far away but seen it was doordash so i wanted to go down memory lane. I got the steak and shrimp with mashed potatoes and broccoli and was served tiny bits of steak with no shrimp. The mashed potatoes tasted rancid and spoiled. 40$ is a lot of money to spend on one meal and it was absolutely horrible. Will never eat at this place again and don’t recommend anyone spend their money on anything from this place.

To hell with this place! I spent over $25 to get two burnt shrimp, a piece of burnt Flounder and no fries on a seafood platter. I call and no one answers the phone. I will never ever again order from this raggedy place. Never again

Salmon totally overcooked. Cook angry at how busy restaurant is and walking around cussing. Usually the food is better

The taste was OK. The presentation was horrible, but why do I have shrimp shells in my beef ribs platter? Which was upsetting because the person who I was sharing this meal with is allergic to shrimp.

Order was not good shrimp were fried so hard, they were over cooked? Also shrimp and salmon Alfredo had so much black pepper in it. It was unbearable to eat.

Bar atmosphere, shrimps were nasty, overcooked and burned. Not seasoned, not fresh but freezer burned. Maybe it was a bad night but money was not worth it.

Dont waste your time with this place!!!!I just tried to get on the website and was blocked by the company for no reason because I checked previous reviews. If a place does this for no reason they dont need anyone's business!!!!!
Food is good but communication is trash. We walked in and placed a to go order - we were told food would be ready in 20min. It took 1.5hrs. Short staffed okay. Lmk that it’s going to take longer than usual. Set the expectation for the customer. Don’t tell me 20min and it’s going to be waaaaay longer. Respect my time. At least give me a banana pudding for the inconvenience - damn.
Beware It’s a scam and false advertisement, don’t go.Everything was HORRIBLE food is false advertisement. My hubby ordered the steak and shrimp and instead of a steak that was advertised they gave strips a complete joke and the food was extremely dry they offered 6 shrimps for the platter but instead we got 5 mediocre sized ones. Yams were nasty af they literally put salt and pepper in the yams, yuck. I literally just left 10 mins ago. I don’t even think my dogs will eat this. The original or last owners definitely cooked way better than these new folks. Step up y'all game and do better with the food.
