"This was the worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant! We had reservations for my friends birthday on Saturday July 9, 2022. Our waiter Rashied was the WORST!!! We placed our drink and appetizer order. One of the drinks where made wrong and he tried to make it seem as though we didn't know that it was made wrong. We placed an order for crab claws but ordered the wrong ones. We asked could we change them as soon as we realized that what we ordered was wrong. He said he would talk to his manager. He came back with the crab claws packed up in a togo box and said that the manager said we would have to pay for them but if we wanted to order the correct ones we could. We asked could we have some bread, he stated he doesn't bring the bread out until he brings out the salads. For a table of 10 people he brought out 8 rolls. It took a very long time for us to get out food and when it came out it was cold. One of the people in our party asked for their steak to be cut in half. Everyone who ordered a steak, their steak was cut in half. As he was passing out the food he spilled steak juice in her hair, and all over her clothes. He was nonchalant and unapologetic about what he did. We asked for a manager and Jeffery came and had the same attitude. He offered her some soda water to try to get oil out of her linen dress. We addressed our concerns about the food, the drinks and the service and he basically said nothing but he was sorry. He asked who had a problem with their food. He would take the food off but the drinks we still had to pay for. The waiter Rashein attempted to give the lady in out party a check. She told him to give it to Jeffery Shapley (the manager) who gave her the soda water for her ruined lien dress. To make matters worse he lost one of our party's credit card. He told her she was irresponsible and that she was being childish. He then proceeded to say that he had been sick of us (the patrons) and he told her F her! The manager never came back and said anything! He stood at the hostess station the entire time. This was the most racist establishment that I have ever been to! To be treated this way is ridiculous and unacceptable. So needless to say the food was horrible, service was horrible and the experience was horrible!!!! I wouldn't recommend this restaurant period!!!! My friend has a ruined linen dress, oil in her freshly done hair, and oil in her Louis Vuitton purse. And all the owner Jeffery Shapley had to say with a nonchalant look was I'm sorry. I would give this restaurant ZERO stars but it wouldn't allow me to leave a review without selecting one."

"It doesn’t look like management checks and responds to these reviews, so this post is for patrons: Avoid lounge seating between 1pm-5pm. The service in this area is lackluster at best. I’m willing to extend the young man (our server) some grace because he’s the *only* person waiting tables and serving the bar. That said, he needs training. He didn’t introduce himself by name, it took him ages to refill our drinks, he didn’t ask if we’d been to the restaurant before, etc. He’s not rude; he just needs training. The young lady who brought our food to the table was downright nasty. She didn’t ask if we needed anything (we did), and when we dared to ask her for sauce (something I’d requested when I ordered the meal), she rolled her eyes as if I disrupted her day. Her entire demeanor was unapproachable and rude. She needs training. Now onto the foodThe food is a 10 out of 5!!! I really hope management gives the kitchen a raise. Literally everything I ate was perfect. The catfish, the fries, the hush puppies, the salad, and the crème brûlée were absolutely delicious. If I could rate the food alone, it’s an easy five-star review. The service in the lounge area is a 1-2 star for sure; however, the hostess is amazing and super kind. This restaurant has too much potential to allow poorly trained staff to take away from the ambiance and the exceptional food. Rarely am I willing to return to a restaurant after experiencing poor service. In this case, the food is exceptionally good! I am willing to return, but I’ll sit in the dining area and provide an update."
