There has been some previous reviews that I admit was concerning when this establishment was first…read moreopened. Yes, I was very hesitant. My aunt and I are big on supporting Blacked Owned Businesses. Today was our first time visiting this establishment. When we arrived, the lady at the door escorted us to the elevator. I was feeling the graffiti inspired art. When we arrived to main floor, the staff greeted us . We were the first customers. I admit, the ambiance was nice. Out waitress Lyric was really nice and attentive. We all ordered the Creole Fried Catfish. They have a nice menu selection. I admit the food was good. Fish fried to perfection, the creole sauce was at first a little off putting but the more I tasted, the flavor was even more delicious. The rice was everything! Although, this establishment did faced a rocky opening with all the views and the unfair controversy in its beginning stages of being a new restaurant , they definitely did not disappoint. I admit. I was impressed.

I sat at the bar and ordered a smoked strawberry Hennessey sidecar. The smoked flavor made me feel…read morelike I was eating food. It wasn't for me. A different bartender offered to remake it without the smoked flavor and she made it way too sweet. I could not drink it. I was looking at the bar and they had no good wines even though I knew that there were wines near the door when you first come in. There were only cheap wines like Sutter homes at the bar. As I watched people's food get brought to the table, none of it looked good. I saw a steak that did not look good. It made me say that I would never want to eat at this establishment. The ambience was very nice for a date night, but I hope that they have something there that tastes good. Lastly, ladies, imagine trying to undo your clothing, squat down to use the restroom, wipe yourself and wash your hands while holding your purse. I tried to nicely let the manager know that he should get a hook put into the one restroom, to hold ladies' purses while they use the restroom. He acted like I was saying something wrong to him or hating on him. Any woman would agree that it's hard to use the restroom with your purse in your possession. Any BUSINESS with a public restroom should have a hook for this reason. He didn't give a heck about what I was saying. Now that beautiful establishment is about to give an inconvenience and irritation to most women that enters that restroom. And it's not even worth it.

Ever heard the phrase " you got to go into the hood for good food? " Well let me tell you its TRUE!…read more I was driving south on Halsted Street when I got to 147th and smelled this robust aroma of bbq. I had to stop and see what it was a about. I ordered a turkey tip and turkey link combo. The bbq was so good . It had a sweet and savory taste, as if the meat was smoked over brown sugar wood chips. The customer service was STELLAR! Its a small shack like restaurant with a drive thru and indoor lobby. They also have patio seating in front and back of the building. Please don't let the shabby look deter you. The BBQ is well worth it.

Tasted as tho there was no bbq sauce. No season and dry. Hardly any me which didn't matter because that tasted horrible anyway. Mac and cheese was dried out and ove cooked, peach cobbler was watery. I contacted the restaurant and let them know and was given a number which he said was the manager /owner. Never bothered by call ing me back but instead text with questions Picture we're sent and he never solved anything and stopped texting. I reapacked the food and getting ready to toss it in the garbage. I will not be returning nor do I recommend this place. PISST!!

The cashier said the menu was new, but the new menu on the counter and the board both said 29.99 for lamb chops but when I was rung up it was 31.19.

Stopped in after work about a week ago to try the Italian beef and polish. I'd heard great things…read morefrom the owner through various clips and videos about the quality. Sadly everything was false. The beef was one of the worst I've ever had...any mom and pop hood spot could match or beat it. The polish was long and skinny and unremarkable as well. I ordered butter garlic fries that tasted exactly like regular fries...which was also a first. I know they were not regular fries because those came with my polish and were even worse. This place is jokingly slow...they messed my order up as I should have had another Italian beef and the staff was pretty unprofessional as they got super heated over the cashier not helping the cooks...it was bad. This place is bad...almost anyplace else is better...hell McDonald's is better.

They have 4 picnic benches out front and tight tables inside. Authentic food. I had the birria and pork tacos dinner (rice & refried beans). The birria was really good.

She brought my food outside to the picnic bench with a smile, and even come to check on me. The tamarindo Jarriots was good too. :-) I think this is a find!
