    We thoroughly enjoyed the quality service, food, and atmosphere. We went during Queen’s Feast week and we intend to go back soon to experience their full menu.

    Service was poor. Food was great. Sat down at 7:15. Didn’t get our entree until 9:00. Server only checked on us one time in-between seating and service. I think this place is new; still has some kinks to work out.

    The ambiance was beautiful. From the service to the delicious food. There were big smiles all around the table. We tried the house pickles, cornbread, chicken sandwich, fried porkchop , mac n cheese, greens and the shredded kale salad. Everything was fresh and hot. Definitely will come back again! Music also passed the vibe check!

    Waitstaff were not inviting. Food was disgusting. Margarita was all syrup. Chicken breast was poor quality. Restaurant was empty. Ruined our NYE experience. Never patron again!

    Service was not great, but food was delicious. Didn’t get drinks until we already had appetizers and entrees. They were out of a lot of beers that were on the menu.

    Great experience with delicious food. Must try the oxtail meatloaf. The sides including collard greens and macaroni were great. Sweat potato bread pudding was great finale to the meal. Ambience is great for date but also lunch and dinner outing. Staff was friendly and personable.
