   It's one of the places I enjoy treating myself to for self care. I like trying something new on each visit, today it was fried Catfish which I really enjoyed. Today I was at the Laurel location vs the one downtown Silver Spring. I enjoy this location for their happy hour starts at 3pm vs 6pm at the downtown Silver Spring location.

   The restaurant is nice but very small. The service was amazing but the food, ok. Th3 shrimp and grits was not what I imagine. The ends were on the grit smothered in gravy I think and there was no season to it. I will not order it again. I saw it being served on Housewives of Potomac and the plating was completely different. On the show the grits were served on top with no gravy. I will try something different next time.

   Food was really very good and portion size more than enough, service was excellent and prices were comparable. My group really enjoyed themselves.

   Complete lack of service… understaffed and inattentive. Very disappointed in terms of customer care. Can’t even speak about the food because we were never served and ended up leaving after 30mins of waiting at our table. No drinks. Not even water and never even met a server

   I love fried chicken and really wanted to try the fried chicken at Miss Toya’s Southern Kitchen. Man was it ever disappointing. I have to say Popeye’s is better. It was quite salty for my taste. Same with the spinach side and fried rice was a mistake.

   Salmon bites were too salty, lamb chops too spicy (tasted like A1 sauce with a bunch of scotch bonnet peppers), and the birthday person got sick. On the bright side, the fried chicken was great. We only had water to drink, and our bill for 2 came to 89.??. We don't mind paying for great food, but not sure that we will go back.

   This was my first time at this location. It was subpar to the location in Silver Spring. The steak and cheese rolls were messy with a hard roll. My shrimp and grits were very runney. I was a little embarrassed because I raved about the Silver Spring location to my colleagues, and they were not happy with their food at all. The manager was nice and he gave me a free dessert. My colleague requested home fries in place of the grits because the grits were very salty. I hope that this location will step up like the Silver Spring location.
