My Valentine’s Day was ruined after making reservations at 8:30. We did not get our food until 9:45 and when we got our food, everything was cold. They didn’t even give us any utensils to eat with. It was just the worst place ever and I would really advise not to eat there ever The lady proceeded to bring us our check and tell us it was $110 we asked for the manager she lied and said that she was cooking and they were short staffed so then I asked to speak to someone else luckily a man named Fred came out and Gave us our meal for free even though we did not eat it because of the horrible service the situation was rectified, but I do not recommend it to nobody to go there.

Came here last Saturday for brunch when my sister visited from out of town. It wasn't too busy. Gerald was our server & very attentive. I got the omelet & potatoes while my sister ordered the red velvet waffles and chicken. The food was good & so was the hookah. They got a signature cocktail called the Crooklyn Lemonade which could be a little stronger but tasty. You do have to pay $20 to park. Overall this place is a vibe.

*Update* Came back yesterday evening with my friend & they had a band performing. The band was awesome & our server Jasmine was amazing. We had a time last night!

P.S. Parking was only $10 this time.

Let me start with the service. It was ok. We had a party 20 on a Sunday brunch. It was busy, but it was hard to find our waitress when we needed things like silverware or ordering drinks. The most disgusting thing was the hookah! It was a particle floating around at the bottom of one of our party guest hook. Don’t seem like they wash them properly. The music was great the vibe was great and the drinks were good and strong.

I chose this restaurant because it is Black-owned and had high expectations for both the food and service. Unfortunately, the experience did not meet those expectations. It’s disappointing because the server with the braids was kind and professional, but the overall lack of organization and attentiveness made for a frustrating experience. I hope the restaurant can improve its service because I truly wanted to support this business.

We stopped in for Sunday brunch. My brother had your grits andouille and my sister n law had the red velvet waffles. Both excellent choices. My grits & omelette were great!!

Food was burnt and the waitress told me to dig around it and see if I liked it. I didn't like it and she told me all sales were final.

We weren’t sure what we were walking into, but we knew that it had great ratings for food, and this place did not disappoint. The food was so full of flavor, and potions were a nice size and the vibe was great. They had a live DJ, who played all types of hip hop music. The music was loud and it was a bit warm but I would go back in a heartbeat.

Search google for a good brunch spot and this place is spot on. The food was amazing. Made a reservation and still had to wait, which was fine.
The place is small inside we went on a Saturday around 12 pm and I swear it felt as if I walked into a club
We enjoyed our food and service but if your looking for a place just to eat and talk without ppl dancing around while you eat, this is not the place for you. It gives club like vibes just with good food. i was told they were having a day party, we were fine with it because It was my cousin birthday so it was cool.
Overall good food, music and service. Downside VERY LOUD MUSIC 🎶 ONE last thing you pay for water FYI no tap water only bottle
