    Wow! This place surprised me. The vibes were great, our waiter was the nicest ive had in a long time. The food ahh no words how amazing it was! Do yourself a favor if you go get the mac and cheese it has some garlic in it and i promise you the best mac and cheese ever! The burgers were great too but my short rib stole the show! So good!! The chef came to talk to us and he was amazing such a good soul, he makes everything with his own touch and even makes the bbq sauce. Go here you will not regret it!

    The food was delicious and the ambience was outstanding! Toya did such an amazing job serving my private party! Her service was attentive and friendly! Highly recommend this restaurant for private parties, date night, girls night out, or if you are looking to experience a Miami Vibe in Michigan!

    The service was phenomenal. The chef came to our table and we chatted about everything under the sun. Thanks for the ambiance and great service. We had a great surprise by having the detroit Rick and rye short ribs. The sauce was delicious, and I don't eat meat. The fish is definitely something to write home about. 2 thick pieces cooked to perfection.

    Get. The. Flintstone. Short Rib. Honestly, it's so freaking good. Super tender and savory, literally falling off the bone. My apologies to Chef Dwayne, but I'll be trying my damndest to recreate that sauce and impress at the next family holiday party!
