Issue is the kitchen.
Brought my daughter here for her birthday. We arrived at 7pm. Their food came at 8:30. The issue isn’t the server. He was checking in with the kitchen. They ignored him. And the security guard with the braids has a horrible attitude. I asked for the manager and he looked me up and down with an attitude and said “he will be right back”. It took another server to speak to the kitchen for them to send the food out. The atmosphere is good. Food is decent. Server was attentive. Kitchen needs a strong leader. They are busy with to go orders. Not focused on the check of 7 people in front of them. My sister and I sat at another table and our food came out in an hour. I guess they didn’t notice the two adults that kept going to the table checking on the teens. This experience could have been better. Get your kitchen together. Please. Also, tell your kitchen staff that eating on the line is disgusting. And unsanitary.
SUPPORT BLACK OWNED RESTAURANTS !!!
Wonderful location and I went on a Tuesday so it was perfect timing. Service was great. The owner greeted us. Waffle was very delicious and whatever butter they put in it adds the perfect touch. The catfish was cook to perfection. When I visit again I will come back to support.
No reservations required at this beautiful restaurant as the hostess Ariel answered to my call inquiring. A friend of mines invited me to check this restaurant out, and, I’m so happy I did. No left overs at All. And, Yes. Yes. Yes. Atmosphere very simplistic and relaxing, for what dishes I had took me back nostalgically.
The food was good but the chicken was cold. It wasn’t as hot as it could’ve been and I usually prefer my chicken to be Piping hot the sides were hot though we also wanted grilled chicken but that had to be replaced and stayed with fried chicken because they ran out also only having two drink choices of sierra mist, or fruit punch. I wanted a strawberry lemonade. Unfortunately there was nothing else to drink but other than that, the atmosphere was top-notch the music was on point and the clientele is friendly would definitely recommend going back for the chicken and waffles. If it’s not good, you’ll be hearing from me again but I’m sure it will be stay updated.
To start off my coffee tasted like pure WATER. I sipped it 3 times to be sure. I’m a big coffee drinker so I sent it back and didn’t want it replaced. I ordered a Keisha’s special With grilled fish waffle, eggs and grits. The eggs were okay and the fish was veryyyy lightly seasoned and had these HUGEEE ugly chunks of bell peppers and onions as if the cook barely tried to chop them thrown on the top. so many I had to hunt for my fish. yet it still lacked flavor so I was confused. It wasn’t pleasing to the eye nor the taste buds. I didn’t eat the grits nor the waffles because I was completely turned off. My guy ate all of his waffles so I assume he liked them. I felt as if I was just forcing the fish down to put something on my stomach. Wasn’t very enjoyable.
Our waiter barely came to the table and we had to flag other people down when we needed something and was 3 seconds from having to ask someone else to ring us out because he really wasn’t coming to the table.
To wind it back when I first came in my fiancé dropped me by the door and he went to park the car. I told her I wanted a table for 2 but I wasn’t able to sit down until he came in. I had to stand by the door while people were coming in and out even being seated before me.
Then After being seated the waiter took a while to get to us which contradicts me having to wait until a 2 person party is complete before being seated.
There was a male plumber coming in and out of the woman’s restroom and it made it extremely uncomfortable. Then the plumber is Lolly gagging with the staff. I don’t mind him putting in orders but walking all around the restaurant and walking back into the kitchen very comfortably as a plumber sounds nasty. It’s just an all and all no for me today and I’m sad about it.
Haven't been here in 10 years. The menu has updated and they have a lot of options. The meal I had was delicious. I will be back to try their soul food
I ordered the chicken dinner dark, and my friend ordered waffles and chicken.
Our chicken was completely dried out as if it were in a microwave for too long. The waffles were dry, and had a cardboard feel and tasted horrible. The beans& rice were extremely bland, the cornbread was dry and bland, and the greens were 90% stalk and 10% leaf. The sweet potatoes we ok.
On top of that, the waitress only came to our table once after our food came. We actually had to flag down another waiter to pay our bill when she dropped the check off.
I will not recommend this to a friend. And I will not return to this establishment.
Me and my husband have brought our family to Chicken and waffle on multiple occasions, and that’s just when we feel like sharing. I appreciate black people loving and enjoying each other and this is DEFINITELY the vibe! The food is seasoned and cooked beautifully and the music is very much a 90’s r&b vibe. The service is just outstanding! Thanks for all that you do, YAH bless!!!
