Had a wonderful anniversary dinner at one of our go to places. Excellent service by David which started off with a glass of champagne on the house. Very classy gesture followed by relaxing dinner. The place was packed for a Monday night and suggest to make reservations. Won’t be disappointed

Delicious food that was deeply flavored and surprisingly bright (sometimes soul food can seem super heavy and overwhelming). A perfect brunch spot. I’m eager to bring others and to try their dinner menu. Chef and staff were very pleasant and professional.

What a charming spot in an offbeat area! We were greeted immediately, and though the menu and payment were through a QR code, we still received attention from our multiple employees, and the menus were still conveniently printed for reference. All our dishes were delicious and charmingly presented. I loved the balance of meat, vegetarian and vegan dishes. I'd love to return during the day and enjoy the patio.
