Corn bread was off the hook... Perfect way to kick off the meal. For the entrée, braised ox tail... Very sumptuous and fall off the bone good. Will definitely be back!

I was at dinner with 2 other couples last night when my food got lodged in my throat. It was scary and embarrassing but aside from that the staff was soooo attentive. The manager and hostess checked on me several times. The manager even followed me out makings sure before I left I was okay. I really appreciated how kind they were. Although I didn't get to eat my dinner it wasn't our first visit and the food is always good, so looking forward to my leftovers later today!!
Business response:

Things happen! You'll have to come back soon for a new dish off our menu. There's so much to choose from! If there's any way we can further accommodate you during that time, just let us know. Thanks again, Dionne!
