4.4 (7,081)A lively Downtown spot serving Southern fusion fare, from flaky fried catfish to late-night chicken and waffles.
Description
The kitchen matches its main plates with distinct fusion touches, serving jerk lamb chops and blackened shrimp over dirty rice alongside catfish sandwiches paired with crisp, well-seasoned fried okra. Groups gather over a varied cocktail menu and celebratory five-layer rainbow cake, while the casual room maintains an energetic backdrop with music that stays easy to talk over.
