“I attended to go to the restaurant located next door from here. I was told that it would be almost a 2hr there. I came here unexpectedly and was told that I would have to wait 30-45min. I was in by 30. Day after valentines around noon and both places were packed with people waiting outside. We were seated at the (my daughter and I) and the vibe just kicked in. Drinks were decent and food was good but the music!!!! The music was hitting!!! Old school new school mix going on. Most definitely will be going back, hoping everything (except the wait) will be the same 😊”

“Everything was absolutely delicious! I will be referring EVERYONE to this place. I will definitely be returning! Our waitress, Melissa was awesome too!”

“Our reservation was at noon and happy to say we we were seated immediately upon our arrival. Food was delicious and drinks were perfect. My only hesitation is that if took longer than normal to get drinks after ordering them. Other than that, everything was perfect. Staff was friendly, place was clean. This is not a party atmosphere which was fine by us. Music was great and not too loud.”

“Alyssa was a wonderful host. Attentive and professional”

“Went to celebrate both my friend’s birthday and the food & drinks were really good. Great music & vibes for brunch.”
“Went for happy hour, the chicken sliders were super good and the perfect size for a little bite. Staff was super awesome and the lemon drops were perfect!”
“My gf and I came here for Valentine’s Day she did the French toast I did the Cajun breakfast. Both were amazing. Would come back. Decently quiet too!”
