    My friends and I had a really nice time here. The music was amazing! The service by our waitress Ayanna was superb. The food was hit or miss unfortunately. The catfish nuggets were really good as well as the fried okra but I had the chicken fried chicken and it was really fatty. Several of my friends had the mac and cheese and no one finished and said that you start. It could have been a lot better. Only one of the six of us loved her meal and she had the pecan chicken and waffles which I tasted and it was delicious! The drinks were really good as well. In all, the vibe was great but the food could've been better

    I've been several times for brunch and thoroughly enjoy the food and cocktail menu. I often recommend this restaurant to others for brunch. I've tried many of the brunch menu items and they were delicious. My favorites are the cornbread, fried green tomatoes, avocado toast, pork belly, and crab cake benedict. Their friend chick is also very good. Overall I am always pleased with the ambiance, service, and food.
