4.0
A soulful experience from start to finish! This small Black-owned gem serves up some of the most flavorful, creative soul food I’ve ever had. Today I tried the Fruity Pebble French Toast with a side of fried chicken wings, and both the taste and presentation were spectacular. Every bite felt like it was made with genuine love and care, and the menu is full of unique dishes that really set this place apart.If I had any suggestions, it would only be to see them in a larger space someday—with more seating for bigger groups and maybe even a cozy stage in the corner for karaoke or local performances. They deserve all the room to shine because they’re truly doing something special here. - Antoine
