  I'm really surprised that all the positive reviews maybe I have higher standards. First of all when I walked in the music was so loud we were shouting to the server to be heard the DJ was playing a great selection of music but it was like a competition the music playing over the restaurants loudspeaker and the DJ playing different music competing with each other it was overstimulating and a bit much. We got seated rather quickly but I thought it amusing that the gentleman at the front access if we had a reservation when the place was almost empty. The staff were friendly and the food did come out in good timing it was a little off-putting that there were tables that needed to be cleaned and there were staff sitting at a booth socializing the food was just mediocre I ordered the brunch sampler the fish was not bad it was cooked to Perfection however it was Bland like they forgot to season it so I threw some hot sauce on it and made it work the Grits were lumpy and had pieces of bell pepper in it I'm assuming I don't know if that was intentional or if that was a from another meal that they were preparing the Grits will also a little lumpy and just lukewarm my shrimps taste like it was cooked in old grease the chicken wings were okay I tasted my friends French toast and it was really delicious we both ordered the cotton candy mocktail what I would say is it didn't have a taste of cotton candy it taste it exactly like great Kool-Aid with a ball of old dried cotton candy sitting on top maybe this was just an off day I would be willing to give them another try but when this visit I was underwhelmed and not impressed

  Ok where to start. The booth seats are ripped. The place itself has this unfinished look. The restaurant looked closed from outside. My children and I were trying a new place. I think friends had been there and the mimosa tower is the pull (we did not get one lol). Everything on the menu seems to be between $20 to $25. In my opinion if you are charging that much for a waffle it better be the best waffle I have ever eaten...Sadly it was the worst. I had the Sunrise social platter to give me a variety of things to try. The beef sausage was unseasoned hamburger meat...terrible. The waffle tasted like flour and was super dense I took like 2 bites. My over easy eggs still had clear egg whites. The grits were ok even though they seemed pre-made the menu does not state that there is jalapeños in them but I think that's what the green things were. My server offered me 2 kinds of gravy for them one was a gumbo gravy (which just tasted like super salty old bay to me) and the other I cant remember the name of. My children had the chicken and waffle. The platter is big that's all that it has going for it. Waffle was as terrible as mine and the fried chicken had no flavor. Our server was nice but another server kept coming over and arguing with her. Not sure if it was their act or if it was real and it may work for them with other tables but we were uncomfortable. The one thing we did enjoy was all the laughs we had with each other. I enjoy paying for good food and experiences this was not it. Save your money skip this one.

  We came here as a family of 10 I had the peach pancakes. They were so delicious. Their French toast is top-tier. The fish and grits were amazing. I have nothing but good things to say about this place. Kellie was the best server. We didn’t have to wait long on our food and she also recommended what was good and what wasn’t she was awesome

  The food was PHENOMENAL. The vibes were amazing, the live DJ played great music the whole time. Our server was Kelly and she was great. We had a large party of 11 & she made sure every last one of us was taken care of. She got our orders correct and checked in frequently. Nothing short of a great experience, will definitely go back again.
