Lobster bisque
Jae S.

I decided to try out this spot for the first time to support African American business AND because they have soul food. We ordered the 8 piece sweet bourbon chicken wings, lobster bisque, and fried whiting with mac n cheese and yams. The establishment was clean and neat, and the customer service from the 2 ladies was good. There was a big guy sitting at the counter, which I assume is the owner. He didn't say a word, just looked at us. Anyway, the food presentation needs some work. I thought the presentation may not look good, but I hope the food tastes better... BUT!!... we were disappointed. Out of my 8 pc wings, 3 of the flats were edible, and the others were cooked way too hard for the size. 10 bucks down the drain. The whiting dinner definitely wasn't worth the 23 bucks. A small piece was eaten because it had meat on it.. the others were like hard fried skinny fish skins. We bit into it, and it cracked! We are not happy about this experience. The Mac n cheese, yams, and lobster bisque soup was ok. I gave a star for the cleanliness of the establishment and a star for the nice lady who greeted us and took our order. I usually would take stuff back to the restaurant for them to see the issues themselves, but we just didn't feel like going all the way back there. I just take the loss of money

I really wanted to love this place because I saw an awesome review in a Facebook group. However, I had a different experience. The staff is super friendly and their customer service is phenomenal. The food we order however, just wasn't that great. The whiting was overcooked, the French fries were old, the greens were mushy, the mac and cheese was so gritty, and the wings lacked flavor. My family and I were extremely disappointed to have spent almost $60 and received subpar food. Overall, I'd rate it a 2 out of 5, but because the customer service was so good, I gave it 3 stars.

The fried chicken is my absolute favorite, and their chocolate cake is chef's kiss -- rich, moist, and always hits the spot.

SO...I'm going to start by speaking positive. This young man has the POTENTIAL to have a great…read morebusiness going. I did not know him before, I got his information on yelp. I asked him to help me cater a BBQ for 50+ people. 1.) He provided me with an initial tasting. 2.) He offered to roll the costs of tables, chairs, and chaffing dishes into his fee, which was very convenient for me! He even offered to come the day before to help setup. 3.) I asked for a second tasting to fine tune the menu Items I was having for the BBQ he stated that he would cook the chicken on site the day of... I explained to him that BBQing chicken on the grill takes SKILL and that I prefer the chicken be baked, or parboiled and then placed on the grill. He assured me that wasn't necessary. Here's what I asked for, and what I got: I ASKED FOR: I told him that I did NOT want chicken or any meat in my pasta salad and wanted it to be a veggie pasta salad. I also requested that the HUGE pieces of cheese that he put in the pasta salad either be left out or cut smaller or replaced with a less dry cheese WHAT I GOT A "Veggie Pasta Salad" with chicken and HUGE pieces of cheese...after my vegetarian friends found meat in the pasta. I ASKED FOR: General Tso Wings and Medium Spicy Jerk Wings WHAT I GOT: Wings that looked the exactly the same and were under cooked and had to be put back on the grill and into the oven the next day. (RAW WINGS ON THE GRILL MEANS UNDER COOKED INSIDE AND OVERCOOKED OUTSIDE. I ASKED FOR: Nice hamburgers...I SPECIFICALLY SAID I did not want the cheap thin hamburgers WHAT I GOT: A big pile of cheap thin flying disk hamburgers that were dry. The deviled eggs were completely doused in paprika and were not served to the guests and remained in the fridge until someone asked about them...the same for the fruit salad that looks like it prepared days in advance and not fresh. After the food was setup we were spinning around digging through the dishwasher looking for serving utensils because the caterer that I paid 4 figures to did not bring serving utensils. THE MAIN ISSUE HERE I am a small business owner myself...I called Mr. Chase and asked to meet with him to talk about how the event went. I texted him not less than SIX TIMES and each time he would give me a date and then either not respond or came up with a reason not to meet. I am assuming this is because he is aware that the event did not go to plan. He has avoided speaking with me (see photos) and THAT is the sign of bad business practices. I even had a church that wished to hire him and still never responded. A business like this survives off of word of mouth and referrals. I was hoping that general feedback and a conversation would provide some encouragement and opportunity for growth. This is apparently something that Mr. Chase is not interested in. My suggestion: PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

The best food in town and always have the best service and the most friendly staff and on time…read moreservice great affordable prices also does platters, easter baskets , and bake cakes by request

I'm not on the southern side too much, so it was my first time ever seeing or hearing of this truck. There was a selection of tacos, baskets, sliders and sides. They had some tacos I was not used to seeing, such as smoked brisket tacos, sweet chili shrimp tacos and haddock (fish) tacos. I got a shrimp and haddock one for myself... OMG... they were bursting with the flavor and the aiolis (jalapeno and sweet chili respectively) were delicious with them -- you can see the other ingredients on the menu. It's o random side, yes, but I got the seaweed salad with them and was so delicious. I was quite satisfied from this meal alone, but I later on wanted to get nachos. I got an order of chicken ones, and... all the yes. I loved the chips, sauces and everything else that came with it. I don't know when I'll get to see them again, but when I do... I can't wait to try something new.

Their menu is seasonal, so I was disappointed that they didn't have their popular rockfish sliders - oh, well - another reason to check them out again! When we went, they had tacos (southwest chicken, smoked brisket, and sweet chili shrimp), soups (crab and minestrone), sliders (smoked Philly steak and cheese, spicy chicken, and BBQ brisket), and baskets (hand-cut fries). We ordered the 3 types of tacos (southwest chicken (fried chicken with cheddar Jack, pico de gallo, sriracha cream, and lettuce), smoked brisket (brisket, pico, cheddar Jack, BBQ, and lettuce), and the sweet chili shrimp (fried shrimp with pico, cheddar Jack, sweet chili aioli, and lettuce) with a side of hand-cut fries. They all came in a flour tortilla. Our favorite was the southwest chicken, because the chicken was perfectly fried; the toppings were ample, and I really liked the sriracha cream. The sweet chili shrimp was good, too, but definitely on the sweeter end; if you like sweet chili, this item is for you! The fries were perfectly fried, crisp, and seasoned. Staff here are super welcoming and friendly. I'd love to check out their other items on the menu during the summer! Great small business to support! +southwest chicken tacos! +great sauces +seasonal menu +friendly staff +check social media for locations/hours of operation

We worked with Main Event Caterers for several months leading up to the event. We specifically worked with Jacob, and feel that he did an excellent job at meeting all of our requests, and always went above and beyond. He was able to accommodate a food tasting, and as a result we selected some excellent food, desserts, and drinks for the event. Jacob also brought in some nice dinnerware and furniture, specifically some chairs and a nice loveseat for a small ceremony and excellent pictures. On the day of, the kitchen staff were very professional and friendly, and the service was flawless. We really appreciate the effort from Jacob and the rest of the staff that supported our event. They helped us make the event go much better than we could have ever imagined.
