Everything is amazing!
Cindy KMay 28, 2013
Agree w comments about the female bartender. Sat alone @ the bar and was completely ignored. A waiter had to come behind the bar and serve me instead. She served the solo guys at the bar though. Rude!
Nathan LeeNovember 18, 2012
Cheese grits are on point!
Teri RushkaSeptember 3, 2014
Best. Service. Ever.

One of the most magical places in DC. End of.
Bitches Who BrunchJanuary 11, 2014
The Bitches Say: F+. A southern restaurant that can’t make grits? Unacceptable. Try not to poison your elderly patrons with inedible materials. Awarded with the Worst Overall Brunch Award of 2013!

After work happy hour!

Bad coffee, burrito omelette was sold out and fruitsalat was a melon salat! Basic service!
Chris HallFebruary 23, 2011
There is a bartender that works here a lot at night, I've encountered her a few times and if you go in too late, she'll give you nothing but attitude. Not worth being there if she is.
HerNovember 29, 2011
And a tree runs through it. Total visual happiness ;)

Glad they have a gluten menu :)

Apparently happy hour only applies to the bar, not the restaurant.
Ben LoebDecember 9, 2012
Food is great but the service was not. I probably won't be going back.
