   I’ll go back, I had chicken & waffle and the chicken definitely needed seasoning. The waffles was good. The drinks where a little high but again we’re paying for location and the atmosphere

   Food service was extremely slow, and the food arrived barely warm. We were seated at 1 pm and our food did not arrive until 3 pm. The drinks and the music were very good but that could not save the day. When we complained, we were told the kitchen was backed up, but for 2 hours. My family was very disappointed.

   The service was poor since 20percent gratuity is automatically placed on bill. The waitress took 35 minutes to bring my salad and another 10 minutes to bring the dressing. It should not take that long for a salad and why bring dressing and salad out separately. After waiting 15 minutes I had to go to bar to ask for bill since she hadn't brought it out. I don't know if that's the norm for waitress to bartend and wait on tables too but I won't be back. she definitely wouldn't have gotten a 20 percent tip

   So many small issues turn into a BIG issues, no sauce for food, waited a LONg time for my check…. The waitress decided to hold a conversation with co workers after I paid…. The last meal to come to my table was a Caesar salad…. 10 minutes after everyone got their food - the salad was last and late. A few ordered the grits and added shrimp- $12 for 5 mini shrimp… not worth it…..

   Celebrated my birthday with family. Came mainly for the house music, but was pretty disappointed—it just wasn’t great. That said, the food and service were absolutely top-notch.

   Venue, food and music was good as well as the band, but we waited awhile for our drinks. Price of food is kind of high and they should not be adding a 20% gratuity to each individual bill. I hate when restaurants do that because you are only responsible for paying for your food and most people will leave a tip but it should not be automatically added to your bill. I believe in leaving tips but some of these places continue to increase the gratuity and add it to your bill.

   The owners were all sooo nice and hospitable. They did their absolute best to ensure we had a great experience. The DJ played some hits, it was nice to see so many people dancing and enjoying themselves. Drinks were good! Salmon croquettes and catfish were served hot and fresh, well seasoned. I also got chicken and waffles. My waffles were cold both times they came out and the chicken was not seasoned unfortunately. I recommend giving them a try!!
