    Great service and amazing menu. The cocktails were perfect. Highly recommend getting their black angus ribeye if offered. Need to go back for brunch!

    Absolutely one of the best restaurants in Raleigh. Their brunch menu is amazing - go for their biscuits and gravy, pork Madame, chicken Mac and cheese, and shrimp and grits!

    The fried chicken and waffles is delicious. It's comfort food fancied up with the ambiance of the restaurant and gourmet syrup. Good for splitting as there's a huge portion.

    This place is amazing!! Try the fried oysters and pork belly appetizer, beef bourguignon, and the chicken & waffles! All were outstanding!

    You certainly won’t forget the soul food classic, chicken and waffles: an exquisitely juicy breast with a shatter-crisp crust and a buckwheat waffle with braised mustard greens. Read more

    Great spot for brunch. The biscuits and coffee are great starters. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

    Noisy. Good food. Horrid service - Never got the dessert menu and we wanted dessert, Very upsetting as we watched our waiter service other tables and ignore us...
