I recently dined at Succotash Prime for my first time, as I'd already been to their National Harbor location, and I wanted to see the difference, location wise. My experience was so-so and I'm not sure if I'll be back to give them another try. I came in, specifically, to try their Pimento Cheese Burger and saw on their website that it was also on the Happy Hour Menu. I didn't see anything in the Happy Hour Menu area on the website that said it was for bar patrons only. So, I was up for it, since I thought I would be able to dine in the main dining room. I'm not really a drinker and I've personally had multiple poor service experiences in the past while ordering food with no drinks from a bar. However, when I arrived there and requested a table for one, the host asked if I was coming in for Happy Hour, and informed me that I would have to dine at the bar. I was hesitant, but went ahead with it since I was already there, and the bar wasn't too packed. I did see, after the fact, that Happy Hour "at the bar" was placed under the Hours of Operation area instead of the Menu area on their website. The main dining room had a nice ambiance to it. I loved the painted nature scenes on the walls. It almost made it feel like you were outdoors a bit, especially with all the natural light that seemed to fill the space. The bartender seemed friendly and he was pretty quick with greeting and taking my order. The Pimento Cheese Burger was pretty good. Good amount of the Pimento Cheese on top with the Bacon Jam. Pickles were fresh. Gochujang Ketchup added a slight kick. Fries were fresh, not frozen. I'd overall give the Burger and Fries an 8.5 out of 10. Nothing crazy but it was definitely delicious. However, what I did not like was the bartender coming over to the area right in front of me, while I was attempting to enjoy my meal, and slamming down his glasses into the metal grate in front of me. It was a fairly large bar and he only seemed to do it right in front of me, only when my food came out. I was nervous that one of the glasses would shatter, that's how bad it was. It was so loud and this is one of the many reasons why I don't like dining at a bar. I understand that it is the proprietor's or head manager's choice on whether the whole restaurant can partake in "Happy Hour" or only the bar area. They have ever right to make that decision. I just personally don't enjoy restaurants who do choose that option for their patrons. I feel that everyone should be able to have an "Happy Hour" after their long day of work or whatever it may be, with a nice discount on the food or drink. And I fully recognize that this is more of a personal preference than anything else. Like I said above, not sure if I'll be back, but to each their own.
We walked in for some drinks and their cornbread which was basically our post-dinner dessert. The cornbread is moist and buttery although very crumbly. We sat at the bar and the bartender was having a rough time because he was spilling all over the countertop and pouring drinks messily so it felt rather chaotic but whatever lol
Visited on a Sunday for brunch with a friend. We opted for the family style brunch option for $31/person. This was a good option as it was our first time and wanted to try multiple things. I wasn't a huge fan of the deviled egg. The shrimp and grits as well as the kimchi greens were my favorite of the dishes that we tried. We enjoyed great service, the waitress was very attentive and the restaurant gives a cute Sunday brunch vibe. I would recommend for a cute brunch date with friends or date.
Hands-down, my favorite meal in DC, and it was very reasonably priced for lunch. Got a salad which was very delicious. Also got the lunch meal which included hush puppies, chicken, and waffles, and banana pudding dessert. The hush puppies had amazing flavor, and were in a spicy sauce with pimento cheese. I saved the rest of that sauce for the main course, which was half a Belgian waffle with two large pieces of fried chicken. The chicken was juicy yet crispy on the outside. The banana pudding was a little too sweet for me, but still delicious. Service was wonderful. Our waitress came by at just the right times, and our food came out pretty quick. The restaurant itself was mostly packed, but we were able to snag last-minute lunch reservations on a Saturday. Since the restaurant has two floors of seating, it was a bit noisy, but not so much that I couldn't hear anyone talking at my table.
We've wanted to try this place since we saw Edward Lee on culinary class wars...when we arrived, the restaurant was full. We were seated in the main level towards the back. If you have read some of my past reviews, I have an issue with crowded restaurants and loud patrons which end up dampening the experience for me. I am happy to report that although the restaurant was bustling, I had no issues carrying conversations with everyone at our table of six. We shared many different appetizers and each had a main dish then shared desserts. This was an interesting mixture of southern style cuisine and Korean touches here and there. Flavors were all good. Think my favorite dish was the pork belly ssam. I love that there was such a Korean dish in a primarily southern cuisine restaurant.
Another kick ass brunch at succotash! They were offering a $25 three course option that was a great deal. I had three pimento hush puppies, trout over dirty rice, and banana pudding and all was delicious. My friend loved the cornbread, the crab hash, the mint julep ice cream, and her drink, Coffee and Cigarettes. Great and friendly service. Beautiful space.
An overall 3.75 star review for Succotash Prime. Located in DC, you already know parking is a challenge and there is no street parking. Reservations are recommended, but depending on the day and time of your visit and number of persons in your party, you may get lucky and be accommodated. We made reservations to avoid any crappy seating or prolonged waiting. Although, we decided around lunchtime to go after work, it wasn't difficult to secure a reservation. Not a lot of diners when we arrived on a Friday afternoon at 3:30pm. Seated quickly, Rio was our server. I don't know what they did to him prior to our arrival but he was giving "I don't want to be here" vibes in his speech and body language. He was efficient and checked on us appropriately but had to hand us off to another server who was coming on shift. I wish we had started with her as she had an upbeat outlook and was energetic. There are seasonal cocktails and I went with the Cherry Pick in honor of the blooming of the cherry blossoms in Washington, DC. It was flavorful and I enjoyed it. The menu provided had small variations in what they serve in comparison to their sister location Succotash in National Harbor. An express option at $31 (skirt steak or salmon) with salad, French fries and dessert is a welcome source of variety. I had the catfish sandwich that comes with french fries. I think I got the catfish that was on Ozempic because that was the thinnest fillet of catfish I've seen. Normally catfish is flakier and meatier. The sandwich was good and reheated well since I was only able to eat half during the visit. The interior was very spacious and has an upper level. There is a bar and sometimes they run out of featured cocktails but it gives the opportunity to go with your backup choice. If in the area, I would frequent here again.
Just amazing from the interior to the music to the food. What a treat. Loved everything about it. Our meal & the options made it challenging to choose one dish. Also gives reasons to return. Being from Kentucky we highly recommend the Hot Brown. You won't be disappointed. We finish our meal with the pecan sticky rolls. So be certain to save room for that treat. We will return out and we highly recommend it. Our server was good, but I can't say great. He definitely knew the menu and made multiple recommendations.
I am just going to jump into it, and I will say the service at the national harbor location is so much better. You ever get that vibe from people and see their facial reactions so much that it is obvious that they are just over it. Well, that was the reaction we saw between the hostess and our waiter on the afternoon of March 26th at 1545. The hostess took us to our table, and she pointed to our table while speaking to our future waiter and you can just see his eyes roll and his head go back. Almost like, "Come on another table?" There was a back and forth for a minute and he eventually came over with great enthusiasm to make us feel welcome. That was all sarcasm. My spouse and I picked up on it, and we knew what we were in for as we watched the interaction between him and the hostess. He did not want to be there or at least he did not want to serve us, and it was more than clear. We were already there and had decided to try Succotash Prime after great service and food at the National Harbor location. We still ordered but the vibe was completely off and remained the same. It was at a point where do not bother to come over if it is going to be like this. The food was not bad, and the mint julep ice cream was the highlight of the meal. We started off with hot oysters that were ok. I went with the "Express" which was the skirt steak or the catch of the day, salad, fries, and the already mentioned mint julep ice cream. The skirt steak was ehh. Not very flavorful but not bad. Spouse and I were betting that the mint julep ice cream would not come out and we should have put it in on the prediction markets because it was completely forgotten. I reminded him as I am sure he did not want to hear anything from us and he was ready to go. Well at this point so were we. Overall, I cannot recommend this place and will not. This could have been a one off and many have said the great experience here and even said it is a favorite place to go. This was not my experience, and the biggest disappointment was that thinking this would be a great place that my spouse would enjoy and it was just dissatisfaction all the way around. Not how I imagined a break after work going where it should have been a pick me up after a long down was just a let down. Mentioning this to anyone just seemed pointless. The hostess had her bag, changed shoes and left. I got tired of waiting around. Thank goodness for InKind to pay the bill without any more interaction. It was just one of the situations where attitude and give a care starts from the top down and seeing the interaction at the start showed me there are some deeper problems with the front staff. One and done. Far from a "Prime" experience.
I went to Succotash and tried the "Taste the South." The inside of the restaurant is beautiful and the overall vibe is great. Service was fine, nothing standout but no real issues there. The biggest problem was the food. It took a long time to come out, and when it finally did, it was honestly pretty underwhelming. For something that's supposed to highlight Southern cooking, it really lacked flavor across the board. Nothing was bad, but nothing was memorable either. If you've never had Southern food before, you might enjoy it just for the experience and setting. But if you have any baseline for what good Southern food should taste like, this doesn't really hit. Overall, it just felt very average and not something I'd go back for.
So far so good!!! Greeted by lovely and friendly staff. Thank you Chris and Haden and Sheria!!! So much on the menu, so little time!!! Everyone can find something delicious on the menu, fish, steak, pork and poultry! This the place you plan to attend when there is a variety of different appetites. The place is airy and open!!!
Succotash might officially be the start of a love story... and honestly, what a place to begin. I came here for a first date, and everything--from the ambiance to the food--set the tone perfectly. It's warm, inviting, and just the right mix of lively and intimate. We started with the fried green tomato salad and the cauliflower. The salad was fresh, flavorful, and a standout for me. The cauliflower had a bit too much sauce for my taste, but the texture was excellent--crispy and well-executed. For mains, I had the catfish and my date ordered the smoked wings--both were delicious and full of flavor. But beyond the food, the experience really made the night. Great conversation, a kind and thoughtful date, and a setting that made it all feel a little special. We've already gone on a second date... so who knows--this might just be the place we look back on and say, "this is where it all started." Wish us luck

The restaurant was beautiful. The food was amazing and I ate every bit! The customer service was nice. People constantly coming over, taking your plate, asking how everything was. The waitress was knowledgeable and thorough and offered suggestions on what to eat. The prices weren't bad as well. I def recommend coming here to eat! read more
We came here on a Saturday around 6:30pm. Seating wasn't available in the main dining area without a reservation, but we were able to get a table in their second floor bar area called Mr. Lee's. Tables here were first come, first served. The crowd was pretty light when we first arrived, but filled up quickly about twenty minutes later. To order, you used a QR code to access the menu which had the same offerings as the main restaurant. You could start a tab for an entire table and everyone could add their items to a single bill. Payment and tip were also completed via the mobile platform. Food and drinks were brought directly to your table. It was super efficient and convenient. They have happy hour until 8pm on Saturdays and Sundays. It's always an exciting treat to find a restaurant with weekend happy hour. To drink, I got the Southern Sangria. It had bourbon in addition to red wine. It was sweet, strong, and delicious. The happy hour menu also has food specials. To eat, I had the dirty rice bowl. I loved the mix of flavors and textures. The batter fried eggplant was super crispy. The kimchi was unexpected, but very tasty. My partner got the shrimp and grits and enjoyed it. Service was fast. It was a very satisfying meal. read more

Everything from the food to the cocktails was perfection. Our server was very friendly, attentive, and fun, and the whole staff seemed to work together really well in making sure all guests had what they needed. To top it off, the restaurant is gorgeous inside, and the ambiance created is 10/10. read more

Service was great our server was very knowledgeable and made great suggestions. The ambience doesn't feel stuffy, it was more relaxed than I expected, which I loved. I LOVED THE "HEY PEACHES" cocktail. I could have had a pitcher all by myself. I actually despise artificial peach flavoring so I was worried this would bother me, but it didn't at all, and it was slushy and very cutesy, my husband was jealous he didn't get one. We were excited to see the culinary class wars additions to menu! We got the ky fried tofu starter and it was good, I was happy that we got to taste something from the show. Out of our 3 starters though I would definitely recommend the corn bread. For the mains I would recommend the NY strip with the peppercorn gravy. We got the add on fried chicken, one dirty and one regular. Both were great. For the sides the collards were my favorite. The sides are shareable and pretty huge so keep that in mind when ordering. For the dessert we had the banana pudding and it was amazing. Definitely get it. It was a great experience, especially as fans of Edward Lee. We enjoyed our experience and the food. read more

This was my first time eating at Succotash, but not my husbands. The building is very unique and has great architecture. The lighting and set up has a cool vibe. We arrived about 20 min early for our reservation and we were asked to wait at the bar and we would be seated at 7:30. By 7:40, we had watched many other couples come in and get seated before us. Almost like they forgot about us. There were plenty of open seats so not sure why we couldn't be seated at least by our reservation time given we were there waiting. The meal started out strong with appetizers. My husband had the coconut prawns and said they were really good. I had the pimento cheese hushpuppies. There as enough to share so I brought some home because I couldn't finish. The hushpuppies were probably some of the best I have ever had. The pimento cheese was good, but the Cajun aioli gave it a real kick. For dinner, I had the shrimp and grits. It's one of my favorite southern comfort foods, so 9 times out of 10 I'm going to try them if they are on the menu. I was a little disappointed. The shrimp tasted a bit too fishy and were small. The grits were creamy in parts but lumpy and flavorless in other spots. The sauce was very soupy and oily. My husband ordered the dry aged ribeye with onion jam. It came with a small side of broccolini and he ordered a side of roasted Brussel sprouts. He said the steak, while cooked a perfect medium rare, was underwhelming in flavor, and just mediocre. We checked out the dessert menu but nothing peaked our interest. Not sure we will return, if so would just be for drinks and apps. read more
This space is gorgeous the food fantastic, and the service was wonderful. Can't get much better than this spot. Arrived for lunch and sat at the bar. Enjoyed some happy hour specials of bread and butter and wings along with a mocktail Belles kiss. All were delicious! read more

Tried this place with my family, as we are Korean and wanted to try Chef Edward Lee's restaurant. Though it was busy, the service was great and we ordered deviled eggs and a drink at the bar while we waited for our table. We also ordered the chicken wings (4/5) and tuna tartare (5/5) as appetizers, my sister and I ordered a filet mignon which was excellent but my father said his burger was just ok. For dessert we ordered the banana pudding (5/5) and chocolate waffle (4/5). I would recommend for a night out with family and friends and would like to return if/when I am in the DC area again. read more
What a pleasant experience! From the moment we stepped inside, I felt very relaxed and was stunned by the beautiful dining room. It was so bright and airy. We had some stragglers in our party, but they seated us in a timely fashion. We pretty much tried everything on the menu and everything was delicious. Se were especially surprised by the shrimp and grits, that was the perfect warm meal. Can't wait to go back! read more

The interior of this restaurant was my favorite part. Smooth and comfortable seating, high ceilings, two story seating, and quality everywhere else. The staff was very responsive and friendly. I ordered a filet steak medium rare and it came out rare. I sent it back and it wasn't much better the second time. I ate my words and finished it. This certainly isn't a steakhouse. The hush puppies here just average and I've definitely had better. The chicken and waffles were surprisingly super. The breading on the chicken was quite sweet. The crab cake was all crab and no bs. We got the Hummingbird cake and was great and very similar to carrot cake. read more

Your typical brunch but with a twist! The set menu was so filling that we barely touched the dessert and had to take it to go. The restaurant was also super beautiful! read more
Came here for a friend's birthday brunch and really enjoyed ourselves. The restaurant is gorgeous on the inside, beautiful decor and tons of natural light from the glass ceiling. The service was kind of slow, we waited at least 10-15 mins every time we ordered a drink because they only had one bartender serving the entire restaurant. I'd rate the food a 7/10. Because we were a party of 10, we had to get the family style tasting menu. My favorites were the green fried tomatoes and the Mac n cheese, everything else was just ok. The cocktails were pretty good, the mint julep was a bit too sweet for my taste but the Manhattan was delicious. Because the restaurant is so open and there are two floors, it got pretty loud as more people came in. I'd love to return to try out some of the other menu items and of course those fried green tomatoes. read more

Came here for brunch and it was very tasty food and had the usual drinks! There wasn't really anything jaw dropping in my opinion, but still a solid place for nice brunch and drinks. Service was extremely nice though and outgoing, which I liked. The feel inside is fancy and people seemingly dress nice, but a lot of people dress casually too. I wouldn't say this is a must go to for brunch in DC, but it's at least nice to try out. read more

We came here because this was one of the few restaurants that do a happy hour on weekends and we were absolutely blown away by the food, ambiance, and drinks we had here! We essentially got everything on the HH menu. We got the pitchers for drinks - there are 2 options and we got both, the Southern Sangria and Belle's Punch- and for food we got the chicken wings, burgers, chicken and waffles, deviled eggs, pimento crudite, cornbread cakes, and fried oysters. My favorite was the cornbread cakes, but everything was delicious. Usually restaurants skimp on the happy hour food offerings, but that's not the case here. The servers were also very friendly. We didn't realize that the happy hour is only applicable in the bar area so they sat us at a regular table but didn't mind at all when we asked to move to that area. Service was also extremely fast (which was good because we were starving). We have found our HH spot on weekends, and we will absolutely be back. read more
I came here for the first time with some friends for dinner on a Friday evening - it was a bit of a mixed bag, but overall we had a nice time! The thing that was most confusing/unideal was really the service. We had a reservation, but had to stand around near the hostess stand for quite a while to be seated. There were also many empty tables all over, which made the wait even more confusing (it wasn't like a whole empty section, indicating they were understaffed, just multiple empty tables all over). The wait in and of itself wasn't too bad, but there is absolutely no comfortable place to stand while you wait. The hostess stand is right at the front door, and they have no space to wait except to crowd the poor people sitting at the bar. The fact that there were probably 5 parties also just hovering around made it worse, so I'd definitely suggest they consider removing one of the tables near the front or something to make a bit of space. Once we were seated though, our server was pretty nice (said she was new, so lots of grace for her). The food was pretty good. We got the cornbread, which was okay, weirdly a bit disappointing for a restaurant that serves southern fusion food. For mains, my friends got the Dirty Chicken and the Chicken and Waffles, respectively, and both got the garlic smashed potatoes. The servings of the chicken were pretty generous, and I tried some of the chicken, which was nice and crispy. I got the pimento cheese burger and subbed the old bay mac'n'cheese for the side. The Mac and cheese was very good, not too dry, and the flavors of the burger were really good: a teeny bit of heat from the gochujang, nicely cooked burger. The only issue was that I don't know if they left it sitting for a while or something, but the bottom burger bun was already kind of falling apart by the time it was served, so it was impossible to pick it up to eat, and I ended up eating the whole thing with silverware. The interior was nice, with a variety of tables/chairs throughout. For example, we were seated at a normal table, but the tables along the walls had these very cool tall-backed couch seating. read more

Hello Amelia,…
The ambiance is magnificent. You truly feel like you're eating in a spot that is elevated than its competition. Seriously high ceilings, beautiful decor and finishes on the trim & floors, etc. The service matched the environment- top notch & knowledgeable. $150 (with tip) for 4 people. Not too bad. The French toast is finished by being caramelized with Frosted Flakes, giving a crunchy finish that was quite delightful. Not too much syrup comes with the dish, so you may want to ask for more if you need it. The bacon was glorious. Maple glazed, cooked perfectly, tender but crispy. Good portion. The mashed potatoes are the best that I've had in DC. Crunchy from the skin, seasoned (rare imo), finished with garnishes. Sauces available upon request. My mocktail was okay, nothing to write home about. The cornbread is a great starter for the table. Would recommend read more
I was looking for a happy hour spot and stumbled upon this amazing spot, like how many places do you know in DC with HH until 8pm? We made a reservation so we're seated immediately upon arrival. The interior is really pretty and there's ample space upstairs and downstairs. The menu and ordering was all done online. We had the deviled eggs (yummy), old bay mac n cheese (very yummy) and chicken and waffles (yummy) with fries. Also got the glass bell punch which was a very refreshing and fruity cocktail that was actually a generous pour. I think I preferred the Mac n cheese the best, and just wish the chicken that came with the waffles was a tard but less crunchy. The staff was nice and friendly, and the music was nice volume. Definitely stop by for the extended happy hour and cute ambiance. read more

We came across this resturant as newtime vistors in a group of 10+, with recommendations from a group member's local friend. Ambiance: Elegant and yet the open space, Booths, and bar area allow for casual vibes. Service: As soon as we walked in we were greeted and as we were waiting for the rest of our group we sat at the bar where I ordered a Belle's punch and chatted with a wonderfully kind mixologist who was able to make recommendations based on my flavor preference. Throughout our meal our server and staff was beyond attentive consistently making sure our water cups were filled, plates and dishes were swiftly served and just as swiftly cleaned up and taken away in preparation for the next course. Food: As we were a large group, we got to sample lots of different dishes. For starters I tried: 1) both types of deviled eggs each a bite of scrumptiousness, the bacon jam had a sweet and savory flavor while the pickled green tomato had a creamy lightness to it. 2) The popcorn shrimp was crispy, fresh and a definite spice that starts off slow but builds with a flavor boom For mains I tried: 1) Chicken & waffles- the skin was crispy, the chicken juicy and the waffles a perfect balance of toasted on the edges and soft sweet syrup center. 2) Pimento cheese burger- I have never had a pimento cheese focused burger, spicy-ish ketchup and the bacon jam combination brought a bit of spice and sweetness combo that blew my mind and has raised my expectations for burgers ever since. 3) [Not pictured] Mac & cheese-the fact that a spoonful raised a layer of gooey creamy cheese with it, immediately let me know this was gona be amazing. Overall, there was no dish I didn't like, all the flavors were unique and awesome combinations, and the impeccable service makes this a must visit spot if you're in the area! read more
Some DC friends recommended this restaurant to us. We happened to walk in just before the dinner rush and sat at the upstairs bar. The mood lighting and ambiance is almost like a speak-easy - very dimly lit but still very lively! I would recommend sitting upstairs in the back bar instead of the main restaurant! The bartenders were very friendly and attentive. The happy hour menu is great quality food for a reasonable price and the happy hours ran much later than I'm used to. read more

Happy hour on a weekend? Sign me up! Saturday this super cool restaurant has happy hour with discounted prices on their awesome food from 4-8. There are two levels to this place. The downstairs is very nice and classy. The upstairs has a bar that is first come first serve. We tried a few things: 1. Hot oysters- these were my fave. Spicy and delicious. I could have eaten the whole dish by myself 2. Deviled eggs- I'm not usually a huge deviled eggs fan but the bacon jam ones are pretty solid. 3. Cornbread- for cornbread this was good, however not sure I would order again. The butter and the jam on the side is a nice touch 4. Wings- loved these 5. Pimiento cheeseburger- This satisfied my burger craving for sure. read more
My sisters and I made a reservation and came down to this spot. We were seated in a nice semi-private spot which was nice. We started with the deviled eggs and tried both pretty good flavors and the highlight of our meals. I went with the shrimp & grits, which were cold and flavorless, with a soupy consistency, and a side of fries. The fries were lukewarm, but the ketchup was pretty tasty. One of my sisters had the BBQ prawns, and not they were unforgettable & cold as well. My other sister had the chicken & waffles, a side of Mac & cheese, and they both had greens. The greens were not cut, barely seasoned with a hint of vinegar. The chicken was unseasoned, but the waffles were good. Overall, I give this place a 2/10, so stay home, friend; I DO NOT recommend. Pros- deviled eggs were decent (flavors: bacon jam & pickled green tomatoes) Nice ambiance Nice seating Our server, Mike, was really cool, very attentive & informative (thanks, Mike)! Cons- bland food Most of the food came out cold/lukewarm read more
Came here for lunch with a couple coworkers the other day and had some great food. I got their Crispy Chicken Sandwich which had coleslaw, pimento cheese, and their house made remoulade. The flavors of the sandwich were great. The chicken was extremely crispy and still very juicy. My only complaint is I wish the piece of chicken was slightly bigger as there would be bites of just the breading. For dessert I got the Mint Julep Ice Cream which was super refreshing. Succotash is serving up some tasty southern comfort foods with a twist. read more

I am a big fan of Chef Edward Lee and was super excited to try out this place. We tried the Taste of the South and loved every dish. Plus the chocolate bourbon pecan pie is to die for. read more
I can't recommend this place enough! The service was top notch and the food was the perfect blend of southern comfort and fine dining. The building is an old repurposed bank so you feel like you are in a historical time capsule with beautiful crown molding and skylight ceilings! Be sure to download the InKind app and pay that way on your first visit so you get $50 off a $150 purchase! read more

Excellent atmosphere! Fantastic southern food with a touch of Korean inspiration! We had the Jamie's corn bread, tuna tartare to start, shrimp and grits and dirty chicken for entrees along with the old bay mac and cheese and cheesy grits and sausage gravy. Dish after dish was AMAZING! Our server Leonardo was so wonderful, friendly and helpful in every way! He answered any questions we had about the menu and recommended some fantastic cocktails! He made us feel like we were the only table he was waiting on (I'm sure he made his other tables feel this way also!) Next time we're in DC we will 100% be back! read more
Went here with a mentor for a Tuesday 6pm reservation. I got there at 5:30 and found a seat at the bar. Their happy hour is one that you should try at leaaast once! I got one of the punches and read my book, it was nice. The vibes were there and the bartender with the long locs was very attentive! I ordered the chicken and waffles with a side of greens. The chicken and waffles was tasty. The kimchi in the greens reaaaaally came through so definitely don't order these and expect them to taste like traditional southern greens. My mentor order the salmon and said it was a little undercooked. She asked the server who said that was their default cook and that she could have asked for a different cook on the salmon. I naively didn't know you could order well salmon hahah but do that if you don't want it slimy! Overall it was tasty and I'll be back, if not for a meal definitely for happy hour! read more

Ambiance was pretty, chic and not kid friendly. Service wasn't bad. Food not very good, at least not what we ate. Chicken and waffles is supposed to be a signature soul food Asian fusion, NOT. Under seasoned and mediocre...I think there was a fried green tomato dish but it was borderline cold when we got it. Nothing to write home about nor was it memorable...I hope their dinner menu is better than what we had. Definitely not worth the $100+ for brunch. read more

Can you get happy hour at tables, or just at the bar?
The bar(s) - there is one upstairs as well. The host/hostess will gladly direct you.
Is it open again?
Hi Ben, This location will reopen August 31st. We look forward to welcoming you back!
Is there valet parking? If not where is the closed parking garage and how long in the walk?
I didn't notice any valet parking. However, there are several parking garages in the area. Not too far of a walk. Download the spot hero app and put in succotash as your destination
Is there a dress code?
I would say no sneakers or basketball shorts. Business casual . Usually people after work are there or the touristy people
Is this Wheelchair accessible?
I Believe so. They have elevators to access the 2nd floor
Do they have a brunch option that includes bottomless drinks?
Pretty sure that yes
How's the prices?
Entrees were between $23-$40 if I remember correctly. Apps were between $10-$20 I think. You won't regret a penny for the quality of food and decor of restaurant. Bon appetit!
