“Thank you for a wonderful lunch! We have been in a couple of times since the change in ownership. The first time, we were a little taken aback with the disgruntled employees voicing their thoughts and opinions to the customers. They apparently disliked the new handhelds and the changes that were taking place. The food was excellent and we left knowing we would be back and hoped the kinks would work themselves out. We went again last week and were extremely pleased with so many things. When we walked in, the bright, clean walls were a breath of fresh air! Everything looked so clean and we loved the chalkboard specials immediately! We had excellent service and food too! We learned that most of the old staff is gone, for whatever reason, but the new staff was very friendly and competent. We did not leave feeling uncomfortable and expressed how much we liked everything before we left. I know that people usually do not like change and tend to band together, but this should not be a time for that. We should be protecting small businesses, helping small business owners and wanting things to succeed in our area. Owning a restaurant is hard enough without added pressure from those that cannot see that change can be a good thing. This is a good thing and we should all support them! We will definitely be back and have shared our experience with many people in this area and people from other areas that we recommend to come shop and eat in Covington. Thank you for an awesome lunch!!!!“

“I cannot say enough good things about this place. My family and I visited for the first time this weekend and the food was absolutely amazing and the service/hospitality was top notch. Kelvin, Alexis and Guy took great care of us and they deserve all the praise in the world. That smoked turkey leg was one of the best things I’ve ever had. We will most definitely be back soon!“
