    Arrived was acknowledged by the bartender if we had a reservation and we answered yes. We stood near the door for over 20 minutes waiting for someone to seat us and it never happened. Staff would just walk by and clearly see us but batted a blind eye. We decided to leave.

    This was some of the best food I have had in a very long time. I was with a group and we ordered multiple items and every dish was amazing! Loved the decor, the music and the intimate setting. A must visit!

    It was crowded, they only had one bartender, I asked the waitress for a glass of water and ordered a beverage and it never came, when I said something to the waitress her face was frowned up and not friendly at all, she said they were understaffed.

    Food and service were outstanding (as usual). We had the catfish & grits, brunch turkey burger, and the apple spring rolls. Everything was perfectly delicious! It’s such a beautiful restaurant too. And the staff are so friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be returning. YOU NEED TO EAT HERE!!!
