The restaurant was amazing! The food, the service, the vibe was fire. The only issue I had was the Lemondrops were advertised as $5.00 but when we received our bill for four people, drinks for 4 people were $130. Please confirm costs and verify the bill. But you will enjoy the atmosphere and the Soul Rolls are to die for!!!! #HappyEating

By far a great place for music and fun. Fat Tuesday was a blast and I love the table favors and the Mardi Gras theme! The food was amazing and hot as well the happy hour drinks. My only suggestion is the valet parking the cost is reasonable but there needs to be more valet attendants to help with a large event.

My boyfriend and I reserved a table for the night, we got there exactly at the time of our reservation but there were people already sitting and drinking at our reserved table. So the host had them get up and we sat down right after them but she did not wipe our table down beforehand. But other than that our experience was great, our waitress was very nice and food was good. Loved the atmosphere and vibes would definitely come here again.
