My review is strictly on the wing dinner that I ordered today. I hate to do this but it did not meet my expectations at all. The chicken had a lot of feathers still in it. Even a big white piece... The chicken had a good fried batter but there was no flavor. The mac and cheese has no flavor ughhh and it's lacking cheese SMH. I'm not from the area so I ordered here strictly on some other reviews I saw. I just hate spending my money on food that does not meet my expectations. I will say that atmosphere looked very cute and quaint.

Just had lunch with a few friends on Saturday afternoon. The manager, Milano was so attentive to a member of our party that was experiencing a medical emergency. They quickly brought food out proceeding our order. The food was delicious. I ordered the fried fish with greens, mac & cheese and cornbread…babbbby! It was good. The rum punch was tasty as well. Just the right amount of rum and punch! Will be back soon!

This is a wonderful little local spot, with delicious food and wonderful service. Came for the fried whole fish and fried chicken and we were not disappointed. The fried fish was perfectly battered, fresh and very tasty. Fried wings were juicy and delicious. Kiddo also ordered the burger , and it came in great size, she couldn’t finish most of it. Appreciate the bartender who was also our waitress suggested the perfect cocktail to pair with our meal. Street parking only. Our overall experience was very satisfactory and highly recommended by @WineDinenVacay

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Suzann DaCosta · Jan 2026

I had a hair embedded in my cornbread. The pork chops were dry overcooked and bland, the cabbage was bland and dry, the mac and cheese was bland and dry. I had to rebook the mac and cheese by adding cheese and butter and spices. I had to rebook the cabbage by adding seasoning and butter. I tried to file a complaint on Uber Eats which is how I ordered it but only got back $5 which was a complete slap in the face considering ny order was $124. I need a real refund. The only good items were the fried chicken and curry shrimp. How can I get a refund???

★★★★★ 5.0 Ayanna Smith · Feb 2026

Every single thing was amazing! The food, the rum punch, the service. First time visiting and I was impressed. Milano was our server and they were incredible. I was having blood sugar level issues when I arrived and was taken care of with urgency and care. I’m so very impressed with this neighborhood restaurant!
