"Came around brunch around 2pm! Wasn't as busy so I was happy to get in and out! I had the chicken and waffles it was good the chicken was just a little on the greasy side. My other family had the grits and Whiting fish! Which was good! Just wish the grits was a little hotter and less lumpy! Our waiter was nice at first then it seemed as if she was getting annoyed later down the line. Great fun music and atmosphere tho!"

- Slim C.

"The place is okay. What we didn't know was that the original owners sold it to the owners who kept the name but don't have the "crazy" experiment drinks. Their cocktail list has some fun drinks and mixes but definitely not what it was shown on the previous owners reviews. Inside was too cold but overall it was a good experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful."
