It is so incredibly flavorful and clearly made to order…read more After I placed my order, I learned that it was cash only because their machine was down that day so definitely keep that in mind just in case. I was also told that it'd be 20 to 25 minutes, but it ended up being much closer to 40. Ordinarily that would bother me, but luckily on that day I had nothing else to do and everything was piping hot so I really couldn't complain. I do wish there was an easier way to find the menu online, I had to ask what all they had over the phone. For two plates my order came out to $38, and each plate comes with three sides and corn bread. I'd eat here again.

We had about a 15 minute wait for a table for 2 on a Friday night. Our waitresses were so tentative and kind! We started with the boudin cakes! Really tasty with the avocado cream sauce. My husband kept wishing there were more than two! lol For entrees, I tried the crawfish hand pie and Brussel sprouts, along with a berry kick side salad! Everything was good. I particularly liked the fried jalapeños on the salad!! My husband ordered the Big Plate, includes fish, shrimp,and stuffed shrimp. The fish was fried so perfectly, just needed a few more shakes of seasoning! The remoulade sauce really shined and made the fish taste better. We finished with 2 desserts! The apple pie with ice cream and the turtle were both great! Overall, our experience was amazing! Our waitresses really anticipated our needs the entire night! We'll definitely be back for seconds!

The staff actually turned the air down because I was so cold, upon my initial arrival, which I appreciated immensely. I looked at all the pics before we came, so I knew right away what I wanted to try. We ordered: Sautéed Crab Fingers/ Fried Green Tomatoes/stuffed Mushrooms I can't really single anything as a best bite because they were all great. The only thing we were upset about, was we don't know about this place sooner. That way we could've ate here coming and going back to Houston. Enter freely, they've been approved

Also, the lemonade was bland no sugar or had to be watered down I called the order in at 9:25AM Didn't retrieve food till 9:58AM Overall, will I come back?

I wasn't a fan of the yams, too much cinnamon for me personally, however the other sides were great. The service was okay. They were very busy and only had one server on the floor.

Overall I'd eat here again, just probably ordering Togo

TLDR: Decent BBQ and good service in a eclectic decor…read more Nothing to complain about. They have jerk chicken on the menu and, being a huge Caribbean foodie and skeptic, I asked to sample the sauce. It was NOT Caribbean jerk flavor at all. Instead, we opted for the chicken combo platter and the brisket tacos... Brisket. Tacos. Did I mention I am a skeptic? The brisket taco came with brisket and cheese on a soft tortilla. The brisket was decently seasoned and the portions were adequate. It was served with chips and salsa which, on top of being really salty, had competing flavor profiles for me so I didn't eat them. The bang for the buck goes to the chicken combo platter that had two leg quarters +2 sides. The chicken was large, well cooked, smoky and tender. Flavor was not as pronounced as I prefer but it was good. Overall, the experience was good.

Well it's been about a year and I always follow their Facebook page where they post the special everyday. The chicken and waffle meal today was 3.50. What a deal. So I decided to try it again. So much better and the chicken was also pretty big and tasty. Now the downside was the chicken was just a little salty (I'm not a big salt person). They also serve breakfast which is served all day. It's right next to the old Ronnie's in a small building but still enough space to house a couple of people for lunch. They are pretty fast for a lunch break unlike some of the other soul food restaurants near it.
