"I'm torn about doing this review, because I really wanted to be able to say I finally found a black owned spot I can actually count on, but I ended up having to throw $30 of food out because I just couldn't eat it and they didn't give me all I asked for. The customer service was great which gave me high hopes, but the food? TUH... Ordered a coconut shrimp w/ black rice, green plantains, and a side of black beans sauce. Not what I originally came for but they didn't have what I ordered (even though it was on the menu). Firstly it says online you can place a reservation to dine in. Ummm... WHERE? Is it behind the kitchen, Because I walked in and found no dining tables just counter space against the walls with a few chairs. The place IS NOT big enough to come dine in, but I digress... When they didn't have what I originally ordered I settled on the coconut shrimp, which was way too sweet and sitting on top of lettuce in the same container they put the HOT rice. Fair to say the lettuce was not eaten because it was soggy and hot. No dressing provided anyways. The person taking my order said they had black rice so I opted for that and when asked was told it came with sauce. I got neither. They gave me brown rice and beans and there was no sauce. Who eats rice dry??? I tried... The rice, though HOT, tasted like it was on the brink of spoiling and it was clear they scraped it from the bottom of the pot, because why is gratin in my $30 plate. I didn't ask for that. The green plantains I asked for was ignored and I was given barely done sweet plantains dripping in HOT grease. And the black beans sauce I asked for on the side was crazy salty. I get sometimes a thing or two being off. There's grace for that, but this was worse than that for me. And this day I was HUNGRY and craving. Ruined my night. As expensive as dining out is, I won't second chance this spot, because I have no confidence that I won't have to throw out my plate again."

"my man and I came here as daytime. Friday afternoon it was about 1230. they were not busy. we sat fast and shortly after us was a table. our server came and got our drink orders. it took about 10 minutes to get two beers. in the 10 minutes were two other tables. all three tables have been drinking before us. our server brought back our drinks and said something was wrong with the bar, but the other tables had similar. we have placed our orders. she also took the order of the table sat at the same time as (no great thing, efficient). we ordered porcelain sticks, a Hawaiian pizza and a steak quesadilla. all three tables that came after us were served first. two of them finished eating, paying and leaving before we got our food. when we got our food, the pizza was a margarita pizza without sauce. my man pointed this to our server and assured him it was a Hawaiian. he took a piece and found out that there was no soak and was only tomato and basilikum. he hates dead. he pulled another server over and asked if this was her Hawaiian pizza. he assured us it wasn't. So he came back and got us the right pizza. we waited another 20 minutes to get the right pizza. at this time my man had eaten half of my lunch. I don't think this experience should be related to the restaurant. it was a beautiful environment and good eating. but I am annoyed that after all frustration and lunch almost 3 hours (we have around 330) that no mistake was even detected on the server. Maybe we will give it sometime in the future another go and use another server. the rest of them seemed to be on their game."
