“The short rib is fantastic and the half chicken knocked our socks off.”

Excellence from beginning to end. I really noticed and appreciated the teamwork environment from the staff. Joe, our server, was knowledgeable, had great energy and conversation. I loved being able to see the chefs prepare the food. You could see they were focused, but the vibe was cool, calm and collected. Every dish I had was so delicious. The fried green tomatoes were seasoned well, the turnip green chow chow with salmon delish, the short rib was plastic fork tender, mac and cheese was creamy and balanced, cornbread delish and I loved the greens. Cocktails were solid. Bread pudding is one

5 star experience!! The staff was friendly and accommodating. Food was the true definition of southern comfort. Every dish we tried was delicious. I rarely see gizzards on a restaurant menu and they nailed it. Collards, mac & cheese, biscuits, short rib all were wonderful. I also loved the hibiscus mocktail. I grew up in the south and the flavors match what I’d expect for a top notch southern style meal.

Something is definitely different about the food here. It doesn’t taste the way it did when they first opened. If you’re not from Chicago, this might be some of the best food you’ve ever had. But if you are from Chicago, then you know the macaroni is not better than your grandma’s or your mom’s. I wouldn’t order it again. The cornbread, however, was amazing, and I would definitely get that again. They are known for their short rib dish, and it was okay. My cousin also enjoyed her fish and grits. That said, I was really disappointed by the price of the wine. We ordered the Black Girl Magic R

Alright, this is a review with a focus on redemption. I've been here previously, specifically when they initially opened, and I was unfortunately turned away due to a misunderstanding regarding walk-ins caused by some very impolite staff members. Years have passed, and I'm genuinely pleased that my initial one-star review has been removed and replaced with this revised opinion. I enjoyed the short ribs, gumbo, mac and cheese, fried green tomatoes, and strawberry shortcake for dessert. I will be visiting in my dreams that food. Apparently the short rib is a staple, and if you don't order - you
