    One of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to! The ambience was amazing along with the food and service. Our server Brandon was amazing and kept us entertained throughout the whole experience. The food was an 10000/10 and so were the drinks, along with the playlist that was playing. I was here for my birthday with friends and the staff sang happy birthday to me! I’d like to give a special thanks to the cook(s) and our server Brandon again, I’ll definitely return in the future!

    Everything we had was amazing. The lamb chops were seasoned perfectly. The greens, creamed corn, and yams were some of the best I have ever tasted. The fried chicken was crispy and juicy on the inside. The best soul food meal I have had out in a while. Service was great too!
