This restaurant is amazing, top notch. The food is always delicious. The staff is hospitable and warm. The vibe is everything with the great music from the 80’s-90’s. Whenever family comes to town, this is where we take them. My 85 yr old mom from NC compliments the meals and that’s saying a lot. Thank you for your existence.

You can’t sit down until your entire party arrives according to the host that was seating us but other than that it was smooth.

I love that this restaurant is black owned and woman owned; however, it is not up to par with what they charge. The atmosphere is good and service was adequate while being busy on a Valentine’s Day night. But the thing that matters most, THE FOOD, does not match their menu prices in value. Dissatisfied to say the least. If you are looking to impress someone with a romantic setting, great. If you are looking to impress someone with great food, look elsewhere.

We had a great meal, it was Valentine's Day so they had a pre- fixed menu, which I didn't know was going to be the case when I booked the table. It worked out fine, though I was looking forward to their regular menu or first time dining there. Service was excellent, now at all hurried, despite the busy night, and we enjoyed all 3 courses.

Wonderful restaurant. Food is excellent, and service is very pleasant. Maybe could notch music down a tad. Lighting a bit too bright. But otherwise, a great place for dinner date, mtg…

Went on Valentine’s Day all they offered was a prefixed menu. The limited menu left much to be desired. The prices they charged compared to what they offered was not a worth the visit. The food choices they offered for the price was substandard. For example 80 for a slice of fried green tomato, a pork chop and a peach cobbler that tasted like it was poured out of a can. They also offer a $30 bottle of house champagne but charged us $55. I was hoping for a better experience for $300. Maybe if they offered their full menu I might have had better experience.
