My son took me here for dinner last week, and it was wonderful! We started off with the crab cakes as an appetizer. They were incredibly light and tasty; the sauce drizzled over the top had a tiny kick to it - loved it! For the main course, we had the brisket mac n cheese. The brisket was so tender and generously portioned; the mac n cheese was creamy and plentiful. I also got the Rueben sandwich to take back to my hotel for the next days lunch - I wasn't disappointed. Figuratively speaking, Benjamin put his foot in it...wiggled those toes around a bit. Translated, it means that it's awesome food, and I'll be back next time I come to visit! Good job, Chef!!

Ordered the Reuben sandwich with fries. The sandwich was grilled to perfection with lots of meat yet very balanced seasoning. Excellent food and service. Free off street parking in the back along the white exterior of the building. Mellow relaxed atmosphere and very comfortable seating next to the window.

Flavorful addition to town!! Was so excited to see a new restaurant opening on Fulton. Their menu rotates weekly, with lunch offerings also offered in evening. Excited to come back for more. Hoping there’s some chicken/turkey lunch options getting added in the future to round out the menu selections :) Had the gumbo and it was wonderful.

Really, really good. Tried the Moroccan meatballs w/ harissa and couscous. Spicy, a little sweet, tender, and a very generous portion size. Couscous was cooked *perfectly*. Emily took great care of me and Benjamin killed it in the kitchen. I will absolutely be back. Go here and let them serve you.

★★★★★ 5.0 Quinn Burke · Jan 2026

Homely restaurant with a relaxing atmosphere and great service. You can hear the chef preparing the food in the kitchen and smell the yumminess from your table. The power bowl was incredible. Will definitely be back! All we left was dirty plates ;)
