Our server was amazing!! However the food came out at different points, not all at once. Mac n cheese balls were delicious but freezing cold. The next batch was hot but they were sitting in a sauce that was cold. Cabbage was really oily. The jerk wings were the star

It was my first time there with my friend and we really enjoyed ourselves. We opted to sit in the restaurant area and the music was nice. Definitely snapping and singing along. The staff was very friendly, and attentive to our needs. Our server Christopher was amazing. He gave us great suggestions on appetizers and entree selections and they were perfect. Get the Grand Marnier wings and the oxtail dinner. The rum cake did not appoint. I had the hands on your knees drink and it was good. Stop thinking about it and go.

Me and my girls came to this location on Friday 10/4/2024! The server Everton was super helpful and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious. My girls loved their drinks ( I don’t drink but I did get a Shirley temple). The music and vibes were 100/10! My favorite thing was the bread pudding omg super delicious! I highly recommend this place.

I had a reservation and they weren’t even open. Poorly communicated no one reached out to inform me that they were going to close but the area was great for other restaurants to be open. So I went somewhere else. Do not recommend going on weekdays . I will say weekends are a vibe!
