   Food quality & service were perfect. The sound level was excessive, however we’ll return

   Hi David! We really enjoyed having y'all in! Cannon is a rockstar and we're blessed to have him on our team. While we like to keep things energetic in the house, it might be a bit much for some guests. :) Let us know next time and we'll see if we need adjust the volume a bit without sacrificing the vibe. ;) Looking forward to having y'all back in!

   Food was delicious as was my gin & tonic--it wasn't watered down. My two friends and I found the music to be too loud for easy conversation. One friend waited an exceptionally long time for her dessert, but said the warm banana pudding brulee was very good. Friendly, attentive staff. Overall, we had a lovely time and we will be back.

   We love Native Son. The food options, creative drinks, and welcoming services is unlike any other in our town. We had the redfish & steak with chicharrones and olive salad apps. Everything was excellent.

   Make sure and get a reservation for this quaint gem! Everything we ordered was superb, from cocktails to dessert. Hummus with grilled sourdough was 10/10, then we ordered four different entrees so we could try each one, again 10/10. Lastly, the banana pudding brought back my childhood. Owners were such a pleasure to talk to. We will be back!

   Amazing food, fabulous owners. I love that they switch out the menu items, allows us to try different food each time.

   Service 10/10 Atmosphere 10/10 Drinks 10/10 The Gumbo 2/10….way too thick and needed salt and heat. I’ll go back but no more gumbo

   Aaron! Thanks for visiting us & sharing your thoughts! We’re regret that the consistency of your gumbo fell short of your expectations, as your satisfaction means everything to us. It’s disheartening that 1 element outweighed the rest of your meal! We’ve comped your entire visit as a reflection of our commitment to your happiness. Had you shared your concerns during your meal, we would’ve gladly replaced it, comped it, & treated you to drinks or dessert to make things right. While we value honest feedback, we kindly remind you that online reviews profoundly impact small businesses & our hardworking team. Addressing issues in person allows for immediate solutions & a better experience for everyone! Thanks for teaching us & giving us the chance to welcome you back w/ open arms. Warm regards!

   Had the pleasure of sitting at the bar for the New Year’s party and was not disappointed. We tried everything. I mean everything. I am craving the hummus still. Great family restaurant owned but some pretty good folks trying to do something great for their community and the dedication shows. Thank you for the amazing night and chef, thank you for filling us up! You nailed it.
