Nice vibes, good food options/deals. DJ is onsite for brunch, so it is a little loud.

We had a good time celebrating my daughter's 20th birthday. I think the servers were overwhelmed. Need more wait staff. We waited a long time for our mimosas that we paid $20 x5 person. Also, they brought my daughter a birthday dessert but they didn't sing to her unlike they did for someone sitting a table near us so we did.

Easy to locate, ambiance was nice, staff was polite and welcoming, our food..... looked amazing. Unfortunately my medium well lamb chops was more on the medium side. The salmon sliders were delicious. My husband had the braised oxtails that Unfortunately weren't braised...they were tender and dry. His sweet plantains were delicious and the mac &cheese as well. It was early afternoon and everything outside of our choices was not a disappointment. The owner was there and very apologetic and offered to cook my lamb chops to my liking but I never eat all my food so I took it to go and will fix it up at home. We did receive complimentary fried chicken and cornbread for all our troubles. It's was good 👍. Thanks Faith . We will be back. I really did like the spot plus i have to try the drinks.
