    I have been to this restaurant more than a few times with family and friends and my wife. The food is consistently good and the rum punch is strong and delicious. It sits on Bedford a block from Franklin and it's electric atmosphere. Today we were celebrating my mother in law birthday. Our waitress Nay was amazing and helped us celebrate. Highly recommended.

    I finally made my way to La Mode, and babyyy... the food did not disappoint. Everything was super flavorful, seasoned well, and just hit the spot. I went on Resurrection Sunday with a party of 9, and we were seated pretty quickly, which I appreciated because large groups can be tricky. Our waitress was so lovely--attentive, kind, and really added to the overall experience. They seated us upstairs, and I loved that space. It's perfect if you're thinking about hosting something like a birthday dinner or small private event. It had that balance of cozy but still giving "occasion." Now let's talk about the brunch--because that's really the star. They had a brunch + karaoke vibe going on, which made the atmosphere fun without being overwhelming. The bottomless mimosa deal (plus a starter, entrée, and dessert) was actually worth the price, which isn't always the case at brunch spots. Overall, this is definitely a place I'd come back to--whether it's for a cute brunch, a group outing, or hosting something special.

    This place was a stop on the Kwanza Crawl. Rum Punch was good. Two unisex bathroom stalls Street parking

    Bill App  is wrong, added food returned, very confusing.  Please fix all problems; trying to support MODE!

    Exactly, our order was put in late, why would we sit hungry for 45 min; after arriving at 6...Staff should put in orders quickly, not get distracted. Old refrigerator kept salmon is an obvious problem. If you know guest come for, and like a popular dish like curry chicken; you make adequate amounts continually. The calculator shows correct addition. Your app has chicken accounted on bill; again, not the quests problem or mistake but yours...the quest is hoping for a great dining EXPERIENCE; not divisive drama. Restaurant's come and go; staying power is understanding issues, foresight and follow thru. Your food presentation gets five stars, however, looks can be deceiving! Like fake lashes, make up and hair. Never underestimate your guests; good luck, be well!

    I think this is my third time here! The food is slamming, hot temp wise and very flavorful. I had the carnival salmon with rice and peas and sweet plantains. No complaints! My boyfriend devoured his snapper! The drinks are strong but not a bad strong, a well balanced and nicely mixed strong. The lychee martini was delicious and my boyfriend's coconut rum punch was creamy and packed a punch for sure. Service is attentive and friendly from the moment we walked in. Always a plus. They had a DJ so it was a little on the loud side but it was Friday night! It was also freezing where we sat, thankfully I had my jacket.

    No thank you ‍. Really disappointed in the food, and drinks. They didn't have a Diet Coke and out loads of ice in the virgin drink. The fried rice wasn't eatable. It was rice and peas without the peas w/ a little of frozen peas. The only thing that was good was the fish cakes. Mac and cheese 5/10 and oxtail dinner 5/10. Truly disgusting

    I came here apart of the Kwanzaa crawl local and black owned bar experience and it did not disappoint. The dj was amazing. He definitely kept the crowd dancing. They even had a Photo Booth. We ordered food and they definitely realized we needed food fast. And them chicken wings were amazing. This is another local black owned bar that I didn't know about. And I will definitely be back here to support this local business.

    The appetizers that I had were really good! The whiting fish tacos were fresh and seasoned and the fresh veggies it is served with were good. The shrimp were delicious! The codfish cakes were decent, I would get them next time with the sweet sauce on the side. The decor is comfy. They have high, low and bar seating, as well as outdoor! Felt welcomed upon walking in.

    I came around the holidays. They had just opened. I believe I was the first guest of the day. I was the only guest dining while I was there. However that didn't stop me from being served to the highest standard. It's absolutely beautiful inside. With so much art to enjoy. Murals all around. My food was delicious. I will say, the whole fish was a bit pricey. I believe about $50, as it may have been "market priced", however I don't regret my choice! When I went, it was happy hour, so I was able to indulge in a couple of the bartenders recommended selections! Those did not disappoint either!

    The food was delicious I'm sorry there are no pictures. It was that good. I went for happy hour and ordered jerk meatballs, escovitch tacos, and chicken. The flavors were off the chain! The service was top tier. Our server/bartender was Marquise. He took us from mango margaritas to sorrel martinis. They were so good we had to have 2! We talked about coming back for brunch but we weren't sure of the rum punch he gave us both a little sample! That's a way to keep us coming back. The restaurant exudes black excellence with the paintings and decor.

    Had to give this place a second chance because I knew Kwanzaa Crawl wasn't a fair take on the place & it was nice. Entered today around 5:45pm and we were the only ones inside. Two stories, red/black decor with a huge mural, but appeared a bit dirk. Huge tv with baseball playing and no music until 6:30pm which ended up being Caribbean slow jams at the perfect volume to talk. Ordered the $10 happy hour ginger margarita, $10 Thai chilli wings (not too impressed) , $14 escovitch tacos (spicy fried whiting ), $24 jerk chicken (spicy & authentically flavorful and crispy) and $30 shrimp (sweet curry) w/ jasmine rice & sweet plantains. Everything that we had (except the wings) were a ten! The waitress was nice, but I do wish they were a little swifter. May be great for others as there was no rush.

    My friend took me here to celebrate my birthday and I had an amazing time. First of all, let me apologize for my pics because I was hungry and started eating then remembered I didn't take pictures. It's all good tho because the food and drinks were delicious. I had the classic jerk chicken with rice and peas and plantains. This was the best rice and peas I've had since my mom's. The coconut flavor in the rice was as if they actually grated the coconut in there. The portion size was enough to share and I ended up brining it home. My friend had the pasta with chicken and that was so delicious, just filled with flavor. And the drinks...we both had a rum punch. The bartender didn't skimp on the rum at all. Great choice! There was a live band and I was lucky enough to have them sing happy birthday. Overall, great establishment, friendly service and atmosphere and amazing food/drinks. They also have outdoor seating. Eat, drink and enjoy!

    This is such a great place. My friend and I were able to get a weekend dinner reservation a day in advance. We were greeted by a woman I believe the be the owner. She was very warm and welcoming. Once we were seated we were introduced to our server. The menus are on iPads. You can select your items there and have your server review and add items from iPad. Appetizers: escovitch fish bites was a large portion/ enough to share and very delicious Also ordered the escovitch shrimp with bang bang sauce. So good! Entree: jerk chicken was good but it doesn't taste like it was marinated for a long time. The sauce was good but the chicken itself was ok. You are allowed two sides. Orders rice and peas with plantain We also ordered the macaroni which is delicious! Definitely order.the cheesy mashed potatoes needs work. It needed, butter and salt. The only flavor was the cheese thrown on top. Drinks were good. Not stingy with alcohol. They did take a long time to come. They came after our food was served. Bar may need additional staff for weekends. This place has two levels. It appears to accommodate large groups/ private events on the 2nd floor

We had three and left suitably sloshed for the night with no aftereffects. We didn't have too many bites but the food was very good for a bar. I'm excited to go back and I hope we have just as much luck getting in next time.

Unfortunately this place fell very flat. Leading with what we liked: Their mocktail offerings were good, promising a 0.0% ABV which is hard to come across when mocktails are offered. They serve oysters, which adds to that aphrodisiac experience of the oh so 'wow this is a former brothel!'. The bartenders and servers were fast and very sociable with the more sociable customers. The immediate entrance is very tight, and it was uncomfortable navigating the space. We expected there'd be more seating in the back, which there was, but it was limited and not offered to us until we asked for it. We honestly had no clue where it would be and only asked because of how this place was advertised. While it was comfy once we made our way back there, it was reminiscent of a lounge style bar space that almost any bar could replicate with the right room and budget. We didn't feel as though this hit the spot and were let down by this experience. I'm not sure if I can judge the menu of drinks/ foods as expensive, but we left hungry bc we couldn't justify some of the prices. In addition, I've seen a lot of complaints about the volume of the music: it's definitely loud at the front but a lot lower in that back lounge space. It's as loud as any bar's music level would be, but truth be told we were expecting music that matched the vibe of what was advertised and yes, at a lower volume.

Had 3 bartenders for a pretty small bar and none noticed my cup of water was empty for 20 min; not to mention one of them really didn't want to be there or is a super introvert and just there to make the drink and bye; would have hoped they tried a bit more to have a conversation or explain the philosophy/idea behind the bar/drinks etc (i mean i am paying 20% tip and it's a service industry) 2) The Awakening (tiramisu) was not that great; was on the sour side - maybe because of the chosen espresso beans which may be arabica, but wasn't pleasant; gave an impression of soured milk and coffee. Also the frozen ice cream just doesnt fit; more like a frozen affogato or sour klondike bar than a tiramisu Net net, still a great new place and perfect for dates, but not as strong on the service and desserts

    Was brought here by a dear friend, a neighborhood regular…read more The cocktail was amazing, selection very diverse- many hard-to-find liquors, etc. Bartender was incredibly knowledgable and attentive. My friend and I each order a cocktail, and are catching up. I'm from Brooklyn, however I no longer live here, and this was precious catch-up time with my friend. Then I get interrupted mid-sentence by the old-timer DJ from his low seat in a corner behind the bar. I had bumped the bar with my wrist (bumped my wrist watch as well, not deliberately) and then placed my hand down (granted- more than placed but definitely not slammed), and he decided to warn me that I COULD HAVE made his record skip. It was the Eagles or Santana (far from eclectic, but that's just me). I'm also 99% certain he turned the volume up afterwards, making it even harder to enjoy the company. After that interaction, I struggled to pick it back up with my friend, because I found that distraction very effing rude. When this "4th wall" gets broken down with service, it is hard to then enjoy the space in an uninhibited state. I am all for the Tokyo Vinyl Bar vibe, and I'm also for also giving talent an outlet to share their collection, but this interaction colored my experience, and I closed out after one drink and went elsewhere. I mentioned this to the bartender, and he was kind to offer a buy-back of a rare whiskey, which I did accept. 5 stars for the bartender, but 1 for my experience. I don't like to be harsh or unnecessarily cruel, but this is what it is. I have visited in the past and enjoyed myself. Nonetheless, I certainly won't be coming back.

That the space is narrow with just a few seats along the bar and a few tables mimics the Japanese experience best, where you can almost have it so the whole room is having one conversation together. The music is the focus. The cocktail menu is rather simple, and my Stormbringer drink, with dark rum and ginger beer was not anything to write home about, but $15 is pretty low for cocktails these days so I'll take it. If they introduced new cocktails to the menu with more interesting ingredients I'd be more inclined to return, but the vibes overall are pretty good and the staff really nice.
