    My son had food allergies, specifically shrimp and shellfish. He ordered the salmon which was garnished with shrimp. After returning the dish, the manager, responded and asked specifically what my son’s allergies were and explained how they would fix the issue. He was adamant that there would be no cross contamination in the next dish. Needless to say, he enjoyed his meal. We both did. We will definitely return. Thank you Thirteen!

    The food was good. I paid $70 for 2 drinks. One shot of Don Julio Anejo and a double shot of the same. I think that’s a bit much for that however we enjoyed it. Will we return (perhaps)?

    The staff and the service was excellent. The food was mediocre. Not everyone’s dishes was hot on delivery. We had a full party of 10 people and no one was satisfied with their meal. The staff and the service was excellent, but the food definitely could use some help.

    First time to restaurant for anniversary. The place was pretty empty besides us and one other couple on a Wednesday evening. Food was tasty, not sure about the price being worth the serving. The menu has been changed from what we overheard and use to have better options than before. Was a nice setting and waiter was friendly.

    The oxtails were a total loss. Do it right or take it off the menu. And get a better cut of meat. Yall selling a bone with some fat on it and you couldn’t even cook that right. My first visit was this Friday evening for my birthday and that was a bad first impression from the kitchen. But the service was top shelf. Everything was beautiful including the set up and the delivery. That spicy margarita was exactly what I needed to get my evening started. So the bartender was a home run. The oxtails were a little personal but necessary.

    We came for the Afro Tech brunch but there was no food. We were initially informed that the kitchen was closed but would open by the time we’d be seated, mind you we had reservations. We were seated and then we waited 20 minutes for our server to acknowledge our existence. At that time she told us that the menu was limited and then she grabbed menus and went over the food options they did have. She said she’d return to confirm if she was able to put in our order, she came back only to let us know that our mimosa carafes were the only items available. Of course, we left after hearing this. I’m disappointed that they advertise a Sunday Brunch on their opentable and social media platforms but couldn’t provide such.
