    I had a wonderful dining experience! The ambiance was top-notch, and the selection of music was perfect for the evening. We started with appetizers: the catfish deviled eggs and jerk chicken skewers, both of which were exceptional. For my main dish, I ordered the oxtail pizza without cheese due to dietary restrictions, and it was honestly one of the best dishes I've ever had. It was so good that I even enjoyed the leftovers for breakfast the next day! My date chose the shrimp scampi, but unfortunately, it lacked flavor. He returned it and opted for the salmon instead, which he enjoyed. However, we both agreed that the appetizers and the pizza were the highlights of our meal. Overall, I would definitely return, although I felt that the main entrée options were somewhat limited. I would rate this place 4 stars for the amazing appetizers and pizza!

    The place is beautiful —super trendy but still super cozy, and the vibe is just perfect for a chill night out. The drinks and food were so good. I had the oxtail pizza, and it was amazing. The jerk chicken skewers were so good, especially with the sauce they had on them. The fried chicken with mashed potatoes was also very good, and the cornbread crumbles perfect pairing, They also had a DJ which I felt was like the perfect. Definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a great place to eat and hang out.
