The hostess was wonderful. She was very polite and offered us coat check. The server (can't remember his name...but he had like a Louisiana accent) was so attentive. He made suggestions for us to try as it was our first time there. He was also very attentive. The service made this a great place to stop while visiting D.C.

Our party of three had a wonderful experience. Tia is an excellent server who made great recommendations and provided exceptional service. Although the chicken is crispy and delicious, I highly recommend the Seafood Cajun Diavalo. It was fantastic!

Getting our table was a bit chaotic. There isn’t much room to wait by the hostess stand. And I would have preferred a table further from the front doors, but everything from then on out was aces. Service was friendly and professional. The fried chicken and waffles were delicious. The maple bourbon syrup makes the dish. Will definitely return!

I am gluten free for medical reasons. There were several items I could enjoy on the menu and the fried entrees were prepared in dedicated fryers. That said, the food was delicious! Service was extremely attentive and the manager stopped over twice to make sure my meal was enjoyable.
