I lived in Portsmouth for almost a year before finding out about this place. The reviews were good so we decided to try it this past Sunday. We had the dog so we ordered for takeout. I definitely want to come back and dine in as it looks like a nice date spot. I went with the crab cake sandwich …
If you’re looking for real southern grandma’s kitchen type of food I would highly recommend this restaurant! I went two weekends in row. To highlight a few items….the turkey wings are cooked to perfection and the collard greens & cornbread was nothing but the truth. My daughter loves the chicken and waffles, however, the fried sweet potatoes and apple pies …

The only thing I …

The Mac N Cheese was okay, I wish I had gotten only sides because the lamb chops were not good at all. The music was awesome we really enjoyed ourselves dancing to the old school songs. I …

This place was awesome! The food was delicious! Service outstanding and the atmosphere and decor was very excellent. First time and won’t be my last.
3/5 Stars — Strong hospitality, but the food does not match the price tag.I want to love this place because the vibe is fantastic and you can rent it out for events. Our server was very friendly, and the drinks were the highlight of the night. Unfortunately, the kitchen needs serious help. Our food took so long to arrive that …
