Very nice place. Went there for a surprise bday dinner. Arrive early to set up balloons and hide cake. Upon arriving the hostess advised I had to wait in the front until my party arrives. After 10 minutes I was annoyed and asked to be seated. Gave the cake to the hostess and set up. The waiter was very nice very attentive. However, after dinner he brought the check. I had to ask twice for the cake. They brought the cake with no candles, no knife no plates no forkes. The birthday girl had to ask for a knife to cut her cake yet they advised me it was a $25 cake cutting fee (shameful) I wouldn’t go back there to celebrate any occasions.

Weekend brunch opens at 12pm strictly. When the shades are pulled up the place is open. Nice space. We were seated at a big table since there were 5 of us. The staff were nice and the music was great. The place filled up quickly and got very loud which was fine. Food was pretty good. The mimosa carafe was $48 but tasted pretty good. Portion size was on the smaller side compared to other restaurants. Red velvet pancakes were not bad. The fish and grits were really good. The fried chicken was really good.

The food here is amazing!!! 10/10. I had the Catfish and grits and it was the best I've had so far in NY, mind you I'm a NY native. My friend had the Chicken and waffles and she also loved it. I will definitely be returning to try more but the only negative is the wait time. Be prepared to wait long to get seated and get your food. I mean its worth the wait cause the food is that good 🤷🏾‍♀️. Also you can't call ahead to reserve, you have to be there in person. Parking isn't too great in the area either and the restaurant isn't huge but nevertheless I would highly reccomend.

I love this place. Someone took me here for my birthday. Such a great choice. I had jerk chicken wings with a side of mac n cheese. The chicken was so tender n the mac was flavorful. You can taste the gouda 😋 the Rum punch was raved for but if you are a strong drinker, it would be considered weak to you. Me on the other hand is a light drinker so it snuck up on me and I had only one drink and had a buzz. Atmosphere was great. The waitress n server was bomb and respectful. Looking forward to going back in the near future. BTW: music was on point as well and they gave me a dessert(didn't get a chance to eat it 😔) and sung happy birthday to me. It was cute. Overall great experience.
