"Due to the atmosphere I had to give it a 5. However the food could have been better my eggs were runny and the grits just was not good. The best thing was my bacon. But I love the place I will go back one day if I'm in Lansing to taste their other food."

"My mom and I were visiting from Florida and this place was recommended. The food was excellent and the service was exceptional. I was able to meet Mr. Gregory, very nice and down to earth man. This is a must try! The dressing was just okay, , but the fried wings were out of this world delicious. The chicken and waffles was also very good."

- Natasha R.

"Went here about a week ago and am seriosuly considering making it a weekly venture. The service was great, everyone was warm and friendly, even the patrons. People would come in smiling and would great you so genuinely. I really felt that I was apart of a bigger community, plus they had the music on jam. Concerning the food, top grade, a little slow due to the amount of traffic, BUT absolutely worth it! Beautiful portions, I left full but I was definitely hungry for more. *greens were cold, but everything else was pretty damn good!"
