Seafood fried rice. Delicious take on the normal of fried rice. The sauce they drizzled on top takes this dish to a thousand.

Service is always on point and I have yet to order a drink or entree that was not Aaaahhhmazing!

A decent neighborhood place to have a few drinks and munchies with friends. They offer happy hour drink specials, hookah and live music or DJ on Saturday evening. I went on a Friday evening after hearing so much online talk, initially it was pretty empty but it certainly livened up as the evening went on. Staff are very friendly and attentive, the space is kept clean, and the patio was comfortable. I really enjoyed the drinks, they tasted good without overtly trying to kill my liver with each sip... but those are the ones that go down smoothly and sneak up on you! The food menu is a decent mix of cajun and southern comfort, I personally was not excited about the flavors nor the portion size , but the price was standard. My only con is that the staff did not know the menu very well , but that's an easy fix. If you are in the area, stop by.

Food was delicious, service was attentive. I've tried multiple items, and they have all been superb. Restaurant is always extremely clean and well kept.

I saw a review on social media and decided to give it a try! So glad I did!!! I called in and placed my order, not knowing what to expect. When I walked in, I was greeted by not one, not two, but 3 different employees. My order wasn't ready, however they were attentive and aimed to please. I got my order, drove home, and couldn't wait to get home because it smelled so good! Let me just say, the food was great and I'll definitely be back.

10/10 all around! Top notch food, strong good drinks!, and amazing service from start to finish. They have an amazing happy hour from drinks to food. I hope this place does well....I know it will but more people need to know about this place! Definitely a hidden gem in my books. If I could order the whole menu, oh I would. That's how confident I am in their food. Not to mention this establishment is BLACK OWNED! WHOOP! Try this place out. You will NOT be disappointed.

Spare ribs that look more like a piece of beef and the mashed potatoes look like they are a year old.

I hate to leave this review but I'm bothered beyond belief. The first issue is that anything that is sold strictly on weekends need to be specified on the menu. The second issue is about 15 minutes after I order, the young lady in the kitchen tells the waiter that the ribeye is frozen and they just put it on the grill, the wings are going in right now and give them a little more time. The waiter is doing his job trying to save face but it's not working for me. Next, there is this tall, young man standing and peeking from behind the wall, everytime I look up, he's staring directly at my table. This young man is literally picking his teeth right where they are putting the food up for the waiter to pick up. There is one young lady who walked out of the building a few times, once we got up to leave I noticed that they are running another business next door. Now I get it but you can't be attentive to cooking if you running from business to business. When my steak did come out it was clearly overcooked and I asked for medium. The reason my steak and the wings were so horrible is based on this young lady not having the time to cook them correctly. The only good thing was the waiter... he did his very best to make us happy and was very apologetic.

Amazing service, very hospitable and comfortable atmosphere, nice playlist friendly staff such good vibes. The bread pudding is to die for LOL

This has become a favorite for my husband and I. It's local for us and checks every box we want…read more Great food menu. Everything I had tased is yummy, but it's the naked Cajun Lemon Pepper wings that I keep coming back to. Steller tap list (and clean lines). Additionally, they have an extensive selection of canned beers and THC beverages you can take home or consume onsite. Friendly service! We are always greeted with smiles, the staff cares about the beers and your experience.

Super glad to have discovered what's clearly a local hotspot…read more Summary: - The good: draft beer selection, friendly service, good beer knowledge, good craft beer selection, large space, good food. - The not-so-good: parking is limited and therefore sucks when it's crowded, dark beers are served just as cold as light beers, and they need mozzarella sticks or cheese curds on the menu. That's right. Adding fried cheese to the menu is important to me. Because beer + fried cheese = happiness. It is known. Forgot what apps we DID enjoy, but they were good. Even if they weren't fried cheese. Love good stout and porter selection, and they have it! Love to see a bar that hasn't turned all of their craft taps to IPA. Good to have variety, folks. Especially in winter. It WOULD be amazing to have dark beers served just a *wee bit* closer to cellar temp... not true cellar (too much for Americans), but at least in the 40's F. Just be ready for crappy parking and you'll be good to go. It's worth the patience to find a parking spot if it's busy!
