We had the 5 course chef table experience with wine tasting for my birthday. I would 100% recommend. Steven was our server and he was amazing. The food was delicious and the chef was so nice. She came out for each course and explained the plate. We were there for about 3 hours which was a great amount of time to eat, drink and chat comfortably. I will be back!

Went for a lovely night out with my lady. The atmosphere was nice and we enjoyed the decor. My lady ordered the lamb chops meal and caesar salad while I ordered the much simpler shrimp. We both enjoyed our meals. The prices are a little on the high side but it was worth the experience.

This place is very cool and creative. The way they present food is so unique! They had a cool live band playing. The staff are all so friendly and helpful. Everyone is happy to help and smiling. Our waitress Destiny was a gem. Sweet, friendly and helpful. L second time we went Maurice waited on us. I love Maurice! The absolute best. The rib eye was good but a little too fatty. Caesar salad and shrimp appetizer were good. Burger was good. The added sweetness from the candied bacon is a game changer! Fingerling Parmesan potatoes were more like potato wedges but good. The menu is on a tablet. The bread pudding was delicious! Tomahawk steak was delicious and the best sweet potato mash I?ve ever had. Fish tacos she came was good tooThe food isn?t the best I?ve ever had but the experience was unmatched. The drinks were good. Pretty strong if that?s what you like. Kinda pricey tho.

I went here for dinner with my colleagues one evening and we had a spectacular time. We sat at the Chefs Table, so we were thoroughly entertained by Le Petit Chef while we waited for each course of our 5 course dinner. Steven and Latoya were ourservers and they did an excellent job. Tended to our every need! Superb customer service/hospitality. I believe Candace was thechef on the evening we dined and the food was delicious! This is a black owned, fine dining restaurant and I am very pleased! Iwill definitely be back and I will be spreading the word about this place to others!

Had a great experience here. The ambiance is very relaxing yet whimsically done. The wait staff was amazing and very knowledgeable. The chef came out and was very professional as well as knowledgeable. It was a packed house when we came and thevibes were just all around great. I had the salmon which was absolutely delicious. My sister had the steak and said it was thebest steak she's had. We shared the Mac and cheese (it's a nice size) served in cast iron and was perfectly browned on top.Bottom line I will definitely be back to support this establishment. Oh, did I mention it's black owned?!? Makes me that muchmore inclined to return again.
