My girls and I discovered this restaurant while walking down the street after an event at the Performing Arts Center. Right away they opened the door and asked us if we wanted to come in
The music was jumping, so of course we felt we needed to check it out!
The ambiance was beautiful, the menu selections were out of this world! We're already planning to go back to try different meals. The drink prices were a bit high for the small cups that they were served in.
We of course had to order the Rasta Pasta and it was a 10/10. I ordered mine with shrimp, my other friend ordered hers with oxtail.The sweet plantains were delicious as well. One of my friends went with a Caesar Salad, and she said it was delicious as well! NO COMPLAINTS ON THE FOOD!
Let's talk and the manager GABBY! She was very accommodating to my group all night! She overheard that we were celebrating my friend's birthday and immediately bought shots over for us to celebrate, LIKE WOWWW! Talk about hospitality! She kept checking in to make sure we were ok, and asked if we needed anything. I was beyond impressed! Restaurant management like Gabby make customers want to return to establishments. My girl's and I will definitely be back, and hopefully it's a day when Gabby is working!
Came here for dinner for Father’s Day. I made reservations for my family for 7pm. For appetizers, we went all out. We ordered the shrimp delight, oxtail bao buns, and the short & sweet empanadas. I ended up having one bao bun and an empanada. Those two appetizers aren’t too bad. I think I enjoyed the boa bun the best. For my main meal, I ordered the lobster rolls. The lobster rolls were yummy, and nice and warm. They came with crispy chips on the side. As for my mom, Dad, and sister I believe they said they thought the food was decent. They said it was enjoyable for the most part. As for our service, it was pretty good and everyone was helpful and friendly. The only thing I will comment on is that my sister‘s main entree came out way later than ours for whatever reason and she just had a salad. I had already finished my meal by the time hers came out. I would have normally waited, but it was taking a minute.
My family and I went there this Sunday for Brunch. I 100% recommended! I was at first hesitant about the food, I had the Salmon I replaced the mashed for the rice and vegetables. The food was amazing, I also had a side of the soup 10/10. My drink was perfect, service was amazing!.. another great thing was the DJ, she was amazing. The music was perfect and it set the tone and from glancing around the room you can tell others were enjoying their time with good music. I can’t wait to go back.. might go back again next week 😅😅.
I haven't heard about this restaurant until I attended thia R&B karaoke Brunch event that was held on Saturday.
Me and my two girlfriends had such a great time. The food, the attention, the service, all amazing. I especially would like to express my biggest gratitude to the two ladies that really went above and beyond with their service not only with us, but with the patrons in general. That's one thing I notice and appreciate everytime I venture to new places and I want to give credit where credit is due.
Our server, Maria, was so attentive and pleasent. She checked on us to make sure we were okay, accommodated us on special request orders, and let us know if she was a bit tied up, that she would return to assist. Communication goes such a long way and I really appreciated it.
The bartender, Yari tho??!! CHEF'S KISS!!!!! her drinks were amazing, she would help Maria when things got busy and she also checked on us to make sure everything was okay. She also was so attentive to everyone at the bar as well. Just overall great customer service 💕
I wish I got the owners name, bc I want to also extend my thanks to her for having such an amazing staff. It's clear that her leadership is reflected among not only the beautiful business, but also her amazing employees.
This restaurant is BEAUTIFUL
Even though I live a bit far, I am looking forward to returning again one of these days.
Thank you YARI, MARIA AND THE WHOLE OU LA STAFF ❤️❤️
I first must start off by saying how amazing the food was. It truly was excellent. From their sliders. To wagyu chopped cheese and chicken and waffle. Omg, everything was amazing.
The food did take way to long in my opinion to come out. The appetizer took about 45 mins to come out and the food an additional 20 minutes after that.
The service was overall pretty good, and the atmosphere was awesome.
Overall a great experience. I would recommend coming here, just expect to wait a while for the food to come out.
