This is a secret gem. Staff are superb. Food is fantastic. Hit the club during after hours from 10pm-2am. It has it all.

Great place to hang out with friends! Good food and drinks. Live music and dancing. Excellent neighborhood vibe.

I am very picky with food but this place was just amazing. Everything was great the food, the drinks, and the service. It was all amazing, I highly recommend this place. Thanks to Tiffany, the bartender, and the waiters.

I was so excited to try this restaurant out because the food look good on Internet and I heard it was really popular and it look like they get a lot of business. I had ordered the garlic noodles and shrimp prawns The garlic noodles threw me off because I’ve never seen garlic noodles that are yellow color before so it tasted a little different than what I’m used to. there were other things that I ordered and it was really good but unfortunately when I went home that night I started to feel sick and end up throwing up so bad it was crazy and right thier i knew i got food poisoning from eating from this restaurant They give you a lot of food it is worth your money But something wasn’t clean when I ate and honestly when you’re dealing with seafood you have to make sure you clean it really good so I was looking forward to coming back but after I got sick I don’t wanna take that chance. I suggest not ordering the garlic noodles try something else But the other food on the menu looked really good!

The Food, Customer service and atmosphere...all excellent!!! I definitely will be going back!!

Good people and excellent fresh catfish that melts in your mouth. Warm friendly vibe. Their garlic green beans are sweet and savory at the same time. Gracious hospitality and generous portions.

My family and I were so stoked to visit this place as we heard great things. Also soon as we walked into the restaurant, we were ready to spend some money food smelt great. As we were walking to the host stand, we were kicked out. We were confused, so we went outside, and the host said, “ We busy” we responded with, “ok, what is the wait time?” she said where's your Vac’s card we said, right here. She then said, “I'm tired of seeing yall,” as if we had been there before. Still confused, we left, I'm sure the food is excellent, but the level of service is poor. They lost a customer and future customers. I would not recommend it.

Based on my 2 separate visits. I feel I can give an unbiased opinion. Both times we were treated unwelcomed!The hostess when I went for dinner w/ my family was rude, condescending, and lacked enthusiasm nfor her job. She consistently rolled her eyes and was completely uncoropritive!We were a rather larger group so I apologized in hopes that wed get better service by admitted some sort of fault. All this because someone in my party stated we had reservations!We ended up paying over $800+ this particular night.Another incident where I visited after restaurant hrs resulted in a hostile situation where I was nearly physically removed by a person whom I still can't confirm weather he was an employee or not. This tall guy was full of micro aggression! He came up to me rude so I was just as rude in return. I won't be back.The 3rd star was simply for the food which was sub-par and the owner I think he was because he's a nice guy

There's a few seats upstairs near the entrance so if you're looking for a quiet intimate setting, I suggest sitting upstairs as downstairs is quite loud. Downstairs has lots of bar seats and lounge areas. Great place for group parties as many tables were reserved. Surprisingly, according to the maximum occupancy, it fits over 300 people downstairs.

Chef SMELLY brings the people out. Fried oysters will make you order seconds. Appetizer! And the entree was the crab dish. Delicious!
