I’m extremely disappointed with the food on this visit. I ordered the fried chicken with seafood mac and cheese, seafood cornbread, broccoli, and garlic herb rice. Unfortunately, most of the meal fell short. The rice was hard and undercooked, the broccoli was completely bland with no seasoning or flavor, and while the fried chicken had decent seasoning, it was very soggy. The seafood mac was the one highlight, it had good flavor but the “seafood cornbread” was definitely not as described. It was essentially just regular cornbread with Cajun butter on top, which felt misleading. I genuinely wanted to like this,especially since we’d been looking forward to trying it for a while but for nearly $50, this just wasn’t worth it. Sadly, I won’t be returning. Order at your own risk.

Food was very good. Would definitely eat from them again. A little mix up with the directions but more so Google maps fault. So just make sure to put 1140 Utica ave in your maps manually.

The food is absolutely five-star. Overall, happy we went! The wait is rough - an hour or longer so be prepared. There’s no seating at the location. I would order ahead and plan to take the food home. We traveled an hour and a half the first time and it was closed at the listed opening time. I’d recommend planning to get there an hour or two after “opening.”

Opened til 10pm? Really? And I did confirm with a call. When I arrived there 8.15 they were already closed and boarded up. Bad business. Actually when I called i did say I was coming by After work. Nothing additional was explained. Actually I did walk into a food pick up building where I saw 2 men talking and noone at the window. I even asked them but they didn't know. Im not confused. You should put clear signage about specific instructions. Since then I been calling and I guess you're even too busy to answer for your customers....
