This place would be great if it stuck with the lounge atmosphere. For those 35 and under will probably enjoy the DJ. Unfortunately I did not attend when there was live music. The service was good, but like so many other 'restaurants', they made us wait until the entire party was present, then the whole party still was not able to sit together. The food was either over seasoned or under seasoned. We spent $65 on fish & fries that were very salty & a Salt burger that was very well done with salty fries & 1 cocktail. Others in the party complained of no seasoning on their food. The other birthday party seemed to really enjoy themselves dancing in the corner by their table, they appeared to be all under 40.

Went on a Sunday afternoon to check out the brunch and had a great time! As usual the food was delicious! I had the catfish and grits with breakfast potatoes, and couldn’t finish the plate. Drinks were on point too! I tried a mimosa and a cherry lemon drop. We sat at the bar and our server DeeDee was everything! Beautiful inside and out! We never had to ask for anything, she was always on it. Definitely going back and I’m checking for her everytime!

Perceptions of Care

Safety should be top priority…I was hoping that this wouldn’t be the type of celebratory space that doesn’t care nor is interested in securing their customers with an safe, sufficient, upscale, environment.Simply put this establishment is the opposite when it comes down to being safe.Caring about the safety of their consumers should be top priority. From bartending the adult beverages should be as equivalent as their food being placed while u are at the table fresh and hot should be important standards.I shouldn’t be responsible for a drink that was placed at the outside edge of a table, close by a door where other consumers are coming in and out of while I was in the restroom. Where is the logic in expecting the consumer that is fairly new to the environment to know the rules of not altering the drink thinking that you are protecting yourself only for them to state since u protected ur self and decided to make sure that they wouldn’t bring u the exact same drink that was tampered with is an issue. As in there was a drink placed on the table an anyone could have placed anything inside of the drink. Bringing this issue to the server was done but 30 to 45 min went by;So I figured to protect myself and my health I would take the spray bottle that they had close by just to make sure the young lady wouldn’t bring me back the same drink that could have been tampered while I was in the restroom; yet placed on my table unattended . I wasn’t at the table so why hold me responsible for a beverage that wasn’t secured or placed in a safe manner. Over 10000 dollars was spent and for them to not even consider nor follow through with securing a safe environment for their influenced consumers is baffling.Salt it is an important issue that I have that I feel should be taken care of. When it comes to safety of vulnerable individuals or woman should definitely come first. Since the manager AB stated the drink was altered due to me attempting to securing my safety by not wanting to partake in this so called Business/ scammer/ taking advantage …they simply care for financial gain over safety of their female & Male investors; it’s not hard to give a single care about the wealth that is being invested from the consumers as well as a safe environment. This is an essential issue and one would think one lady to another would over stand this type of an issue. Why would I want someone to drink a beverage and they didn’t receive it while they where in the server’s presence so with that being said . I shook the young shift leaders hand and told her thanks….Left it at that. For the 10 dollar tampered drink. The value of the standards I thought this place had wasn’t of such.Ladies and Gents pls DON’T Drink beverages that aren’t seen nor protected by oneself. Safety trumps everything else no matter what is going on. Let’s do better Salt.Food was outstanding lamb dinner with veggies as well as Dj Music selection. Hookah was decent and drinks are stiff but safety is and should always be TOP PRIORITY. If your looking for a French 75 they will pour champagne as if u wouldn’t no the difference. Try somewhere else; unless ur on top of ur scammer game… smh.

Adult lounge 25 and older. Great food, live DJ, attentive servers even with it being busy. I will say the music is very loud. Pretty strict seating when they are busy (all guests in a group need to arrive together, or late guests will be seated separately).

I was there on February 18, 2024. Having brunch with my sister and best friend. Everything was great!!!! But I have to give a special thanks to our waitress and she was our bartender as well. DeeDee was amazing she had great customer service and hospitality. We will be visiting the establishment again very soon ?

Yesterday was my second time going to this establishment and both times I was unimpressed by the lack of customer service. The first time was on my birthday and asked for medium cook Lamb Chops. My food came back well done and when I approached the waitresses regarding the meal she quickly caught and attitude and was very rude. The second time was yesterday. The service was worse! All our food was over seasoned (SALTy), and the waitress Jasmine was VERY RUDE was not attentive to her guests. We had to waive her down throughout our dinner, and her body language gave off a DONT CARE ATTITUDE. This customer experience was no where near enjoyable for me and my friend and we will not be back.

Oh what fun! Marcus was fabulous, what a fantastic customer service professional. Ambiance is nice, filled with good entertainment, food, and drinks. Karaoke was so fun and what a cool laid back vibe they have there. Go enjoy the happy hour to get a flavor of what they have to offer, then stay for the show, and enjoy a delicious meal!!!
