We came on Sunday brunch where we were told they use all of the ingredients from the week so nothing goes to waste and they create a new menu each Sunday to do this. I loved this ethos. We had crispy pork belly with celeriac purée and golden pickled beetroot and the chicken salad sandwich with potato hash. A little one had a lemon blueberry waffle, which I tried, and it was outstanding as well.. When I asked for a children's money if they did not have one, but they were incredibly accommodating and they said they can make us anything we want and gave us some examples! Also, while we were waiting for our food to come, they brought us some children's toys for our little one to play with, which was much appreciated. Love the ambience and the vibe of this place, has a very friendly and homegrown feel in the best way possible!

We had a brief interaction with him on our visit and he was so nice but it was as we were leaving. It's tiny and crowded and that's okay! But the servers are constantly being snotty brats at you for like, bothering to exist. We sat outside and everyone waiting was leaning with their butts pressed on our table. The food sounded better than it tasted but it wasn't bad. I just wasn't blown away. But honestly the girls working there were SO RUDE that I haven't been able to go back even though I want to give it a second chance. We waited for a while to pay but they didn't come back, and so many people were waiting, we went inside to let them run our card. Well, two of them screamed at us for "crowding" the space and then yanked the card out of my husband's hand and told him to go wait outside and chastised us for not staying out until they bothered to come. lol. Sorry for trying to pay. I wish we hadn't.

While the seafood is wonderful, there is a variety of offerings that include some Mexican, some barbecue, fresh sandwiches and salads. Service is always top notch.

The service is attentive. The menu was diverse, creative, and exciting. However, the actual food was mediocre at best. My husband and I shared two classic dishes--whipped feta and falafel. The feta was fine, but about a quarter cup for $15 felt excessive. The falafel meant well, but it was dense and dry. Plus, the sauces served on top, while tasty, were overwhelming. Again, $12 for three golf-sized balls was too much. Finally, the zataar pita was approaching burnt and much too crispy. I've heard the chef can be mercurial, so perhaps it was an off-night.

Every one of the sides looks so good and fresh that I wanted to get each one of them just to try it! The fish was cooked perfectly and was nice and tender. The added little muffin I didn't expect was a nice touch and delicious. The collard greens were SO GOOD. I'd get them again. So flavorful and cooked well. The beets were fresh and the goat cheese carried so much flavor. For the desserts, we got the carrot cake with pecans and chocolate cheesecake. Both were soooo good. I would get both of them again, especially the carrot cake which was so warm and moist. And the candied pecans were such a nice complement to the cake - not too sweet at all. The ambience is super nice and fresh, and our server was so sweet and engaging. The hostess as well. Everybody there was so nice and welcoming.

The other owner joined us before our food came and told stories of how he ended up in Chattanooga and just about his life in general. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful.

They also have a great outdoor seating area with a fire pit, which would be a perfect spot on a cool evening. Service was okay and could have been a little better, but the drinks and overall setup of the place were great. Hope people in Chattanooga give this place a try. Cheers!

This last time I had the special of fried chicken with a jalapeño gravy, we shared an order of the homemade potato chips that come with a chipotle ranch dip, and he had the Shrimp and grits with a mimosa. I am reluctant to leave this review because I find it is just a hidden charm that people don't know about yet and I hate for it to get too too busy, but I also want to see them succeed with these Sunday branches because they're so wonderful. Our waitress, Miranda always comes with a smile and pleasant feedback on our food orders like what we might like or not so we really appreciate that. Update: Today we had Alysha as our waitress and seriously they're all so accommodating and pleasant! Seating indoor or outside patio - enjoy that fresh air. Go for the food go for the view or go for the Pleasant atmosphere, but it's all a 10 out of 10!
