I had a great experience for brunch yesterday. The staff is friendly, respectful and hospitable. The food was AMAZING so much so that my boyfriend tipped the chef separated. The ambience was cozy & comfortable. Great place. I will definitely be back.

Nice staff, good food, nice drinks and cool ambiance. I went today with my cousin and I was greeted by the most nicest people ever. The Korean Bbq Steak on the brunch menu was nice and the drink Yushi made was great wish I could have remembered the name of it.

Let me first say the food was amazing. I had the shrimp & GRITS with fried okra. So good! Hubby had their chicken & waffles which he thought was great. My problem is the unlimited boozy brunch. If you're going to charge me $28 for 90 minutes & I only had 4 small glasses of mimosas I have a problem. I will go anywhere for a boozy brunch but I had to chase down the waitress for me drink after every time my glass was empty. I didn't leave happy after paying almost $100 for brunch & I ain't drunk. When ww tried to speak to the Mgr & the waitress I don't think theu cared or comprehended what we were trying to tell them. But I know for next time IF I return. I'll bring my own beverage bc they don't have a liquor license. Theu serve beer & wine only. So maybe I won't go back.

I love ININE! The atmosphere is just as amazing as the food! They've also expanded the outdoor area so it makes for an even better vibe.

Visited this place with a friend for brunch and the food was amazing. I got the Korean bbq steak and scrambled eggs. Good amount and delicious shout out to the chef The place is small but I like that makes it much more intimate however the should get an AC in there the fans aren't enough to keep you cool. The only part I wasn't a fan of is the waitress coming up to us WHILE still eating to tell us we have 15 minutes left. I understand there 90 minutes once you sit but that's bad for business when we are paying costumers and there wasn't a line or people waiting for a table. That will require improvement there a way to say things and that wasn't okay

I heard good stuff about this place.... So I recommended it to a friend. When we got to the place around 4 something it was only one other patron there. The waiter was attentive. She seated us immediately and brought us water. But it was so hot. They didn't turn on the AC. There was no frozen drinks that day and the selection of drinks were only wine and champagne based. My friend and I decided to leave and go with a nearby option that was better suitable for us.

Their chicken sauces are to die for. Many varieties. Amazing chicken wings cooked without breading or sauce, so if you're GF or DF there's nothing to worry about. And their burgers YUMMalicous! Moist, large, and no, I'm not sharing, delicious. They even have sweet potato fries, which I guess they should since this is an African Diasporan restaurant with French specialties thrown in. I hear the shrimps, grits and pancakes are delicious, too. So yes, they're a little southern America Soul Food, a lot African Diaspora with a pinch of French thrown in. It has a party atmosphere, no matter the day of the week, 'cause the music is always popping. Both the open air in front and out back are nice depending on your mood and vibe you'd prefer. And inside is nice too.

A few of us came here after seeing them on the news. Our server handled our large group very well, especially given many of us had issues with our order. She kept it professional. This place has a ton of potential. One suggestion would be make the patio furniture comfortable for eating. The outdoor furniture was more so for lounging.. so most of us were hunched over eating our foods on our laps without proper tables. Extremely uncomfortable and not a good look if you're trying to have some etiquette. Like most places, the food has room for improvement. The DJ was on point though, so I say give it a try with some friends for the vibe.

Came here for lunch, on a whim, because the lemon pepper wing sign outside caught my attention; although I'm not sure why I don't usually like lemon pepper wings. Nice, small, intimate spot. I arrived a bit early but they were very accommodating. The menu looked yummy although a bit pricey for just lunch. I went with the $15 wings (6 ppc) and sweet plantain with pepper relish $10. While the food was being prepared, I was invited to check out the outdoor patio seating in the back. On the way back you get a quick peek in the kitchen...clean. Phew! The heated outside seating was better than I thought it would be (see pic). They are expanding the back area, too. It took a title while for the food to come but it was pretty good. I really enjoyed the pepper relish most of all. I'll take a bucket of that to go! And even though I'm not a fan of lemon pepper seasoning, I would order theirs again. I will come back to try other items on the menu.

This restaurant is in my area and I've actually been here a couple times before and the service and food has been mediocre every single time. I last visited this place recently and for sure it will be the last time . I only came here to waste time because the place i actually wanted to eat at was not yet open. The server bearly spoke or looked at me while serving which wasn't the most pleasant experience. I had the crab cake served with random dry lettuce on the side.
I really enjoyed my meal, wine and dessert, i would definitely recommend this place .

On Sundays you can order from the all day brunch menu. I had chicken & waffles with rum punch! So delicious & everything was made fresh. ? The lice DJ played great music.

If I were rating the food I would give it 5 stars, the steak and eggs were amazing. The service was friendly, I reserved an outdoor seat and they easily let me sit inside instead. It would have been nice if they turned the heat on prior to my party arriving. I was apart of a large party and they 10000% played us. All over their Instagram it says $30 prefix but of course since it’s a large party they all of a sudden don’t do prefix. All for a bigger tip I bet. The mimosas were champagne with a splash of juice, no complaints when it comes to that! This would have been 5 stars if they didn’t pretend there was no pre fix and if the outdoor was actually heated properly. I reserved a few days before, they definitely should have been prepared. I would go back with a smaller group.

My husband said theirs is the best vegan burger he's had in all of New York City. The hand cut fries are exceptional and you get a good portion! The interior is very comfortable with a lovely vibe (great music, not too loud). The staff is friendly and attentive. Their outdoor garden is also stunning and romantic. Perfect for their weekend brunch or a date night
