Upon entering the host noticed us standing there and continued her loud conversation about how she hates her job to the male waiter! They sat all the African American people together in one small room filled with tables and no walk room! I got bumped 3 times and twice was the waitress! The waitress stayed at my table rushing us basically to finish! I had barely tasted my entree' before she was ready to bring out dessert! To experience such horrible service the food was small portioned but ok! I will not be returning or telling any friends! I need a corporate number ASAP!
We had a great experience. They sat us near the window which was a beautiful scenery. The service was wonderful and professional and the food was delicious. We plan to go back to try the lounge.
I didn't appreciate your RW menu reflecting only main and dessert and only when I asked about the starter then it was offered. Complete deception. Will not be back.
Upstairs was too packed I didn't stay. Hope I caught it on a bad night I will try again. Love the area but the crowd in the basement was not my scene that night. It was cold out.

This restaurant was great the food tasty and cooked to perfection! I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. My husband and I will definitely dine here again! The price very reasonable and you got a lot of food for the money. They were not stingy with the food portions! You will not be disappointed😊
I had my 2nd birthday party upstairs 😘

I was not impressed at all food, service, ambiance and it is way overpriced. The she-crab soup wasn't what I know it to be. We tried everything pork belly she crab soup, the fried oysters, the wings, the collard greens shrimp, and grits, fried chicken and the salmon w/ brussel sprouts and orzo. Everything was just ok. The brussel sprouts were the best thing I had and the pork belly and she crab soup were the most disappointing. 
We celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary at 219. The window seat they reserved for us was great! The food was delicious, especially the she crab soup and shrimp and grits. Our server was extremely friendly and attentive. All in all a great experience and we will be back!
Excellent Southern cuisine! Venue has multiple experiences and live music. My wife loved the Shrimp and grits. Great sauce! The coconut cake desert was good too. Wish the portion was bigger and sharable at that price. We will check it out again.
Says its op3n till 2am but was closed when I arrived at 1230am.

Great experience. We hadn't been here in nearly 30 years and the food and service were first rate!
The food was delicious, the service was exceptional but the total costs caught me off guard.
This is not a bad place to smoke a cigar or have a drink, but the vibe is not consistent. The dj is terrible at mixing music and can't keep the crowd going

The food was poor. We had a party of 4 and collectively we were disappointed with the appetizers and the main course.
First and last time. Food was not tasty! The vibe wasn't great and the music wasn't all of that.
