The one star rating is truly the best I can do. I'll give credit for how nicely decorated the inside is and the lovely overworked server. However, the food is absolute trash! We placed an order in this following order drink, appetizer and main course. The main dish came before the drinks and appetizer. The sodas called Solo was flat. The server let us know the appetizer was coming, hungry we started eating our main dish. We got the honey chicken combo, fried rice and lo mein. The rice was stiff and lukewarm. How does freshly made fried rice not steam? The lo mein was full of msg and some kinda preservative and hard. Tasted like it was warmed in a microwave and brought out. The honey chicken tasted like chemicals mixed with chicken. It was so bad. The server brought new drinks... same issue and the appetizer still didn't come out. When we let her know how horrible the food was she apologized and asked if we liked the appetizer. Shocked by her own question when she realized it still hadn't come out. When it did, we truly tried to eat it... fried shrimp wontons. Under cooked with raw shrimp chunks. As a person from the Caribbean I try to support my people and all businesses. But this place is not Caribbean and I will never return or recommend.

The rum punch ... just wish they served it in a bigger glass! $14 for this but it was tasty

Beautiful atmosphere! Service was nice tho it was early & still empty. I ordered the salt&pepper chicken, with fried rice & chow mein. It was SO DELICIOUS& freshly cooked . My only complaint is the $14 rum punch in such a small glass. I thought that was a bit much . But otherwise I enjoyed & will be back very soon.

This was a good find. The ambiance is really nice and festive. The food was very rich and authentic. I love it. The owner, Dawn was very pleasant and good along with his wife. I definitely will come back to try the happy hour specials.

The egg was perfectly cooked, but lowkey hiding the fact there was not much chorizo. ++Avocado toast, really small amount of an avocado spread, egg was perfect. The lunch menu might be better, and there are a lot of people coming to check this place out, we saw lots of big groups and kids and dogs it's in a good newer residential area, however these details are important when the item is called chorizo bowl, with little chorizo, and avocado toast with little avocado. So this is not a staff note, but probably a management note that they should put the correct product out.

The restaurant had a fair amount of diners; but we only had to wait 2-3 minutes before being seated. Our server approached us quickly and we actually had to suggest they come back so we'd have time to look over the menu. I decided on the Hunter & Gatherer bowl which consisted of some greens, chickpeas, farro and grilled chicken with a honey mustard vinaigrette. It was a huge portion and quite good. My mom had the omelette which was cooked to perfection and came with 2 slices of multigrain toast. Everything was yummy and the service was fast. Next time I won't wait so long before returning!

The interior is all hard surfaces...so it's loud. I'd recommend brining a bullhorn or a portable mic and speaker with you. Our waitress could not hear us. Try tablecloths or some tapestries on the walls, Maple and Cream management...anything to absorb some sound. Not that our waitress was around that much to hear us scream our order at the top of our lungs. This was an insult, as a 20 percent gratuity was automatically added to our check. The waitress did not deserve a 20 percent tip. She did not even serve 5 percent. And the parking is non existent. I had to park in a garage and walk down a roadway with no sidewalks to get to the place after dropping my wife and daughter off. I don't understand how people have given this place an average of four stars. Don't waste your money.

Of course it started to rain right when we got there so the vibe just felt soggy and wet. They do have the tent you sit under and then plastic roll down that acted as walls so the wind will not bring the water in but to me it just looked a little and felt ghetto in my opinion. I wasn't expecting the ambiance to be this way but maybe when it's nice out it's better? I will tell you they have about 20 industrial fans (I think that's what the eyesores were) on the ground to keep air circulation and a mini Fly fan that sits on your table and at every table because like I said it's completely outside. (The kitchen and bathroom are inside.) Our server came attentive and knew to sell us right away on the cheese balls which were really good but comparable to Texas de Brazil. They have no paper menus you have to scan a QR code on your phone to look at the menu Covid style. Overall I was not impressed with the food I don't know if it because what I ordered or what but the scrambled eggs tasted like they were instant from McDonald's and so little chopped up no flavor I do not recommend the eggs at all, and the sausage was definitely grocery store bought jimmy dean! The bacon was good very very thin and crispy which is my preference and The pancakes were actually good and thin how I like but a lot of people like flap jacks style but I liked them. The waffles were dry with no flavor no butter was brought to the table for either. I didn't understand why they cut up the waffle and put it in a basket cause I literally had to take them out one by one and put them on my plate to eat it was kinda strange. The little strawberry and banana was fresh. The Mocha latte was HORRIBLE it was like drinking a tall glass of chocolate milk there was no coffee in there at all! Most expensive glass of milk I've ever bought in my life $9 My friend said the cappuccino was good but they added cinnamon on top which on the menu it doesn't say they do but they still did that anyway and he doesn't like cinnamon so that was terrible. Our bill came to $80 For two of the bulegreen combos, the 3 piece cheese bread, and two drinks (iced mocha and cappuccino) we each paid $50 which is expensive for breakfast and not a lot of food/not good quality food with no option to sit inside during weather events. I'll pass on this place but glad I got to see what the hype was about.

During this visit, I enjoyed a glass of Prosecco along with a petite bowl, which was the perfect portion if you want to dine without feeling overly full or guilty about not finishing everything. I highly recommend securing your reservation with the $25 deposit online, as they do not offer same-day reservations. The venue itself is cozy, and every time I visit, it's packed with a line of people waiting--which speaks for itself. I truly hope they continue to grow and have the opportunity to expand. Special shoutout to Cousin Nene for the exceptional customer service and hospitality!

The stuffed salmon bowl was UNTOUCHED!!!!!! Unfortunately they were not able to accommodate us with another option. That was HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING..... I recommended to Joe that he should probably have his staff cook that dish for him so that he could be made aware of the taste...... In addition, the women's bathroom floor was not wet but dangerous oily/ slippery I also let JOE know this early on in our visit... VERY UNSATISFIED CUSTOMER TODAY!!! IT WILL BE A WHILE BEFORE I COME BACK...... I left with a bad taste in my mouth and in my experience...
