I was welcomed for seating and then sat for 20+ minutes waiting for my waiter. The waiter didn’t even give me water within that time. I promptly left after receiving zero service. I don’t recommend going to this place, until competent servers can be hired.

First of all I looked at reviews on TikTok and still went to get my own experience. On TikTok I saw that the plates were dirty..when I got there the plates are really dirty! The brunch food is DISGUSTING! The greens which aren’t great but edible were the best part and the Belgian waffle was ok. Even the breakfast sausage were nasty! Never had a nasty breakfast sausage in my life. Anyways the Dj and music are the best parts. Sitting and eating at a coffee table from a couch is crazy also. I would not attend again. We literally left and had to find somewhere to eat! We were all hungry!

Just left a Sunday Noon brunch reservation & the service & the food was AWFUL by far one of the worst experiences of my life Buffet Style food was ?️ I mean the food was cold an not cooked properly.The Grits was overly thick french toast barely warm the sausage cold,I informed the manager she said thanks for letting me know but still chsrged 75$ for 2 Lmao.They should truly be ashamed of themselves & to treat an serve people this awful food is not acceptable i promise you ive been TikTokFished this was one hell of a catfish brunch on my way to Kitchen & Kocktails in DC who NOT ONCE have dissspointed me & my family this restaurant is a waste (although it looks nice inside) maybe the drinks are good but that food is DISRESPECTFUL dont eat there TRUST ME....

Great environment, aesthetics and food created the experience by itself which offset the lacking customer service from the bartenders. The hosts and security were very welcoming.

Slowww service. Extremely cheap-tasting drinks despite the high prices. Iffy crowd.

Nice, elegant Aesthetics on the downstairs restaurant. The food is delicious. The upstairs club atmosphere can become overpopulated quick. It's a nice venue though.

I went for the first time this past Tuesday! It was absolutely amazing. I will definitely be back to see how the vibes are on the top floor which is only open thur-sun. Food was so amazing I forgot to take pictures ! I had cajun oysters & garlic herb oysters for appetizer then the Salmon for entree. Also, had strawberry margarita. Special thanks to the team: Lorenzo- head chef, Whitney- bartender, and May- GM. Y’all made my experience amazing!

Don’t go. The worse of the worse. You pay $50 to stand in line on the stairs (they charge you before hand). Before than you stand in line outside.

Came here for Easter brunch with my husband and let me tell you this is the ghetto, there’s a $50 cover charge for the buffet that excludes drinks, I personally think that’s ridiculously expensive. The food options do not match that price and food doesn’t taste good at all lol ,there was literally fried chicken and shrimp for protein upon paying the cover. We were told to go upstairs and the host will help us. We went upstairs and we were wondering around looking for the host until we had to sit our ourselves , the host finally comes to move us with food to a different table in such an uncaring way the host didn’t even offer to help us carry our food.The music is crazy loud I don’t know if it’s brunch, day party or what? There’s noisy unorganized karaoke that’s happening and the host is running around with a mic forcing people to sing while they eat, not to mention random vendors forcing you to buy things and disturbing you while you eat. The Margarita I had was horrible as if it’s made from cheap juice, and lastly before going inside the restaurant my husband dropped me at the door of the restaurant while he was going to look for parking ,a black guy who is a bouncer was encouraging me to go inside. I told him I was waiting for my husband and I was planning on going inside he further encouraged me to go inside and told me that I will enjoy being inside because there are Africans inside and the Africans in there are not scammers! as an African I found that absolutely offensive and think Africans contribute to the economy of this country and are one of the most successful immigrants that did not deserve such stereotypical mindset, especially from someone who is at the door of the restaurant! The only reason I gave this place 2 stars is because you can actually take nice pictures the deco is not bad other than that it’s a NO thanks for me!
