" Visited this restaurant while on vacation and what a treat! The staff was warm and welcoming, and the food was out of this world. The specialty cocktails were also a major plus. Everything from the ambiance to the plating made this dinner feel special. Recommend the oxtails and the collard greens! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is on my list of favorites. The food is always delicious, but I'm particularly fond of their live music. It's the perfect backdrop for a weekend meal. I went with a group and we ordered a little of everything - the fried catfish and cornbread were standout dishes. Great experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining here was such a treat! The southern-style menu was rich with flavor. The only downside I faced was waiting for a table; it's popular! It was well worth the wait as the ambiance felt welcoming and lively, with music that made you want to linger longer. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a good experience with a few flaws. I enjoyed my jambalaya but found the chicken pieces a bit rubbery. The cornbread was fantastic, and the service staff were friendly and efficient. Overall, I think this place has potential and will give them another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Was here for brunch on a Sunday morning, and despite being busy, the service was prompt! I ordered the shrimp and grits, which were yummy, though a little on the salty side for my taste. I appreciate the historical vibe of the place—it really made me feel connected to the heritage. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying this restaurant based on the reviews I had seen. However, my experience was underwhelming. The oxtails were overcooked, and the greens were bland. The service was friendly, but the food didn't live up to the hype. I may consider trying again, as I heard they have a great brunch menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, it was a good experience, but I did find some dishes lacking. The oxtails were melt-in-your-mouth good, but the mac and cheese could use some improvement. I appreciated the attentive service, but the wait was a bit longer than expected. Still worth a visit! " (*Curated Review*)
