Bin YangJune 21, 2015Start with some deviled eggs and a glass of good local draft beer. It's wise to come with friends so you can share the burger, okra étouffée (add crawfish) with a side of deep fried Brussels sprouts
Gabriel HayesApril 25, 2015For brunch, get the Carolina Sunrise. BBQ Pork and Sunny Side Eggs on a Buttermilk Biscuit with Carolina Grits. So good.
Janie SDecember 6, 2014Would you believe there is actually a great spot that's great for groups? Lots of space, lovely atmosphere, diverse menu, a lot of beers, great service and cheap wine!
Kerwin PSeptember 16, 2017The short ribs hash was tasty. Slightly spicy but done well. Be careful whn ordering the shrimp and grits....check for doneness on those grits. Ginger beer was good as well.- Gabriel HayesMarch 13, 2016Awesome place for a casual brunch in Prospect Heights. Awesome food, great drinks and a comfortable & chill atmosphere.
The best brunch spot! Casual with a neighborhood atmosphere. Carolina sunrise (homemade biscuits, pulled pork, poached eggs, grits) is incredible.
Best Southern brunch in the neighborhood. Get the two eggs special with cheese grits and a biscuit. They're the best I've tried in the North.
Vince C.August 2, 2015The burger and shrimp & grits for brunch were stand outs. Love the pretzel bun on the burger, it was a great touch.
The menu items change from time to time but are ALWAYS fantastic. For example, my fave crawfish fettucine is gone, but now there's a crawfish mac & cheese in the sides section. I'm ok w/ that!
New chef is phenomenal. Authentic Creole Cuisine. Gumbo and shrimp n grits are awesome and spicy. Chicken livers are excellent. So ecstatic!
Robert MadisonOctober 26, 2015The gumbo is nice and spicy! The blacked fish is tasty. If you want to talk, this is a good place to go to!
Diane LeeApril 21, 2013short rib hash with poached eggs, curried potatoes and avocado-jalapeño-cilantro, with a bloody mary...perfect brunch
- Gabriel HayesApril 25, 2015I love the Carolina Grits. Best grits I have had in Prospect Heights or Crown Heights.
Gabby HSeptember 18, 2012nice storytime. Don't be put off if you've never been here before. Enter on underhill, $5 to counter person (who will stare at you expectantly).
Loren HnkApril 26, 2014Shrimp po'boy was tasty! Super filling too. And the brussel sprouts were yummy
Pulled pork and biscuits for brunch? How could Pulled Pork ever be bad I think to myself. Best decision ever! DO IT!
Misook JiJuly 5, 2013Groovy and pleasant place. Solidly good food. Happy hour is fun with $1 oysters!
MiguelJune 21, 2015The french toast was great. The andouille cheesy omelette was good. BYOT (tabasco)
Sefi KeiniSeptember 7, 2013Cozy little bar with suprisingly good food. Try the burger or any cajun dish

EchoDAJuly 24, 2012Amazing brunch in this nice little restaurant!!! Try the Carolina Sunshine ans their buttermilk biscuits... they're unbelievable!!!
Jorge AldayFebruary 9, 2014Either the short rib hash or the Carolina sunrise are winners for brunch.
Ayça AksuSeptember 8, 2012Even though I'm not a fan of ginger beer, loved the mule with rye and lemon juice.
karen bonna rainertNovember 24, 2012The food is pretty decent, but the big plus is how child friendly it is (early in the evening) without being a child focused restaurant.
Colleen CallOctober 12, 2011Biscuits (and gravy) are the best. Small but quality brunch spot. Spicy, delish bloodies too.
Great vibe, Satanic Deviled Eggs and delicious Pan Roasted Chicken
Joo Hee TrisoliniMay 17, 2014Burger is great. Jerk chicken wings are delicious but extremely spicy. Beware!
I'm from the South and I'm not s huge grit fan. The grits here changed my mind. Must order.
Great food, great beer, and..... also great R&B. Aww yeah. Brooklyn's finest.
