Anthony GallelaAugust 14, 2017Everything is good. Excellent, really. Fried green tomatoes are perfect. Pork belly small plate is wonderful! The shrimp po boy is exactly what you want. The grits. Yes, the grits. So good. Oh yes.
Chris PJune 26, 2019Cornbread and fried cauliflower a great choice to start, a good southern heat added to the cauliflower ... shrimp & grits excellent
- Tracy HartmanApril 19, 2015Awesome food! Awesome drinks. Try the bourbon and berries and the fried chicken or Mac and cheese. Just to die for. The collard greens were too spicy for me but great taste before the spice hit me.
Jason ShellhammerSeptember 22, 2018Absurdly good Cajun/Creole foods. You better get a reservation though. You can’t go wrong no matter you order. Drinks are also great. The chicken is outrageous.
John LauSeptember 9, 2021All of it great. Especially the cornbread and fried green tomatoes. Our server Angela was a true “angel”. She guided us through the menu. The catfish was awesome. Wish they had cafe brulio.
PedroAugust 13, 2014Awesome drinks and great southern food. Try the Voodoo Juice and Fried chicken, finish the night off with some beignet's. Great spot for a date especially on the weekends when they have live music.
The best fried chicken anywhere! Except, perhaps, for their Easton location!
Charissa GrandinMay 24, 2014Fresh, simple, good food. Quite busy & noisy on a Friday night. Would like to go back during the week when we aren't rushed out & can try more than appetizers. Def caters to sports/drinking crowd
Mark MossAugust 25, 2019Fried chicken is perfectly cooked ... The fried cauliflower is amazing ... Don't miss the brisket po'boy!
G TJanuary 4, 2023The catfish tacos on the happy hour menu are good along with the gumbo which has just the right spice.
Todd A WilliamsApril 19, 2023Cocktails and the pierogies were excellent as was the service, fried chicken was great also.
- Kim TranDecember 15, 2015Jalapeño grits and hush puppies for apps and I got the duck sandwich. Super tasty
Tristan RhodesideApril 24, 2017A true gourmet take on southern favorites, from hush puppies to shrimp and grits. Also, very large bet list
Braisedoxtailsand the fried chicken is out of this world. Unfortunately it was too Hot to sit out side. Service was a little slow but the waitress was excellent.
Everything! My faces are the mac & cheese, black eyed peas, jalapeño grit, and the brisket po boy.
The Whisky Crush is my favorite mason jar cocktail: bourbon / apricot & banana schnapps / sour / over crushed clementines- John McGowanApril 27, 2019Grits and mac and cheese are fabulous. Never had anything that wasn't awesome

"The beef tip risotto was excellent. Our server, Christopher was great. Little pricey but worth it."
Dave De Yong - 9.0
"This place has amazing apps and even better dessert. Do yourself a favor and choose several apps to share for the meal instead of an entree then get dessert. You won't be sorry!"
Dana Ottalagano - 8.0
"Great beer list, great food, and great cigars. Cool spot to hangout with friends and grab a bite. Try the 50/50 with some Hala Kahiki Pineapple Ale."
