I came here with my family after visiting the aquarium. We are out-of-towners. From the food to the spectacular service from Ms. Candy we will most definitely be back. The food is authentic and everything is cooked in house. I’m not sure what I liked more, the AMAZING fresh sweet potato pie with the graham cracker crust or the perfectly crispy chicken wings, the jerk wings were amazing and the salmon was banging. The sides were 10/10. Mac and cheese, collard greens and cabbage. Even the French fries were perfect lol And again, Ms. Candy was a pleasant waitress and hostess, she was for sure the queen of the spot! Google only allows photos and I took videos of the meals, but pls enjoy the photo of the French fries haha

The service was horrible. Even trying to get a simple glass of water felt like pulling teeth. Every time we asked the waitresses for help, they all seemed to have attitudes. The staff didn’t come back to check on us at all, and it didn’t feel like a real restaurant experience because we constantly had to track someone down just to get basic service. It took a long time just to get water, and asking for a refill was even harder—with more attitude involved. The place was also way too crowded, which made the experience even more uncomfortable. On top of that, the food took forever to come out. The food was okay, but it was a little too salty for my taste. The mac and cheese was good, though. The atmosphere was just okay overall—it honestly felt more like a hole-in-the-wall spot than a welcomi

I ordered through a delivery service. The food arrived and was absolutely awful. I was not even able to eat it. The quality was terrible. The greens string beans were 2 different colors ( old mix with newer) the fried chicken was clearly sourced cheep and of poor quality.

Me and my bf ordered from uber eats, i asked for cabbage got greens instead, no biggie, i usually pick at my chicken bc i dont like eating veins or chicken that has blood on it but this day i was literally starving so i js ate it without looking but the next piece i tore apart bc i wanted to dip it in ranch, i saw a bunch of pink immediately thrown off. I thought it was js tht one piece but no all of them were like tht. My bf ate like 3 pieces before i told him we cant eat this we’re gonna get salmonella. Sure enough the entire day i had the runs, my stomach hurted nonstop even when i didn’t have to use the bathroom. Thankfully i got my money back from uber eats but this is very unsafe i strongly advise the kitchen to do better. The greens were a 6/10 needs better seasonings and the mac wa

I randomly decided to come here, just wanted a late night drink and I had the best time ever! Delvin MADE MY NIGHT! He made great drinks!!! I got a chocolate old fashion, a henny french 75, and a speciality drink from Delvin himself! Everything was sooooooo goood and well balanced, didn’t even taste the liquor. He was so funny and personable! He has a joke of the day, which I thought was so unique! He’s just a beautiful soul and made my night! I’ll be back!! Honestly simply for him!
