What can I say about this place? Well for starters we've always been long time customers. The owners have the original restaurant in the Southwest side in Blue Diamond we've always loved the soul food, and vibe. The restaurant is elegant and classy with jazz music playing in the background. The service is always friendly. It's mellow, and the food never disappoints. I highly recommend this business as there's never issues with food or service. Food 10/10 Ambiance 10/10 (Urban, casual contemporary) Service 10/10 Cleanliness 10/10 Price for product 10/10 Spacious 10/10 The restaurant doubles as a three room event center. They incorporate live music and personal catering. This is an amazing place to host an event. We did last year around the holidays and were satisfied with our service, food, and atmosphere. You really can't ask for more. Delicious soul food that's not greasy, but still extremely savory. The menu options are also, a wide variety from brunch to dinner, and desserts! The entire place has comfortable and spacious seating. Large private booths and Homemade food a couple blacks from the strip with a casual-contemp vibe!!! Black owned! Support local Business!

I went on a Tuesday lunch service so it was slow and nearly empty so service was very attentive, very accommodating. The wait staff knew the menu well and really took care of the table, and I appreciated who might've been the front of house manager or the chef for coming to the table to make sure everything was done well. The ambience is still murky (it's clear that by the time I've gone, the establishment may have just opened for business) as if it's still deciding if it wants a fun, casual atmosphere or an intimate, upscale setting because the dimmed lighting, paper menu, black tablecloths, and absence of filler music were confusing on what the vibe is supposed to be. What really shines is the food. Firstly, it's not much of a fusion but more of a collection of well known Filipino and Soul Food dishes. That said, the Filipino dishes were authentic and done extremely well: the Kare Kare had a satisfying saucy mouthfeel and really packed with flavor (it also came with cornbread muffin, which tasted great), the Salmon Belly Sinigang was deliciously sour and the fish nicely fatty, and the Filipino breakfast classics like the longganisa, tapa, and tocino were all done really well. Garlic fried rice is a must. The calamari is also highly recommended; it came with this slightly sweet citrus dipping sauce (it might be calamansi) that just tied everything together. For a party of 5, each with entrees and a couple of apps, the bill came to around $120 pre-tip. I hope to come back and try more of the food soon, maybe the Soul Food side of the menu.

This family owned restaurant is amazing, a great atmosphere extremely welcoming staff and some of the best food in Las Vegas! My wife and I went out for breakfast on Mother's Day and stumbled upon this restaurant. The staff is amazing they make you feel welcomed and made great suggestions on what to eat. They also had a live singer doing covers of your favorite oldies. Let's talk about the food.... First the chicken wing breakfast, the eggs and hash browns were cooked perfectly, the fried chicken was fried to perfection just needed a little more seasoning for me, we also got a side of bacon that was crispy and you know you can't really go wrong with bacon overall 8 out of 10 The salmon croquettes took me home and reminded me of my great grandmother they were flavorful and cooked to perfection, with a nice Cajun aioli that brings everything together. 9 out of 10 Now the star of the show the bacon shrimp and grits, are the best grits I've ever had! I know that's a bold statement but when I say the chef has perfected this dish. These grits are creamy, smooth and packed with flavor! They bacon and shrimp complement each other perfectly with the cheese giving you the ultimate savory experience. The top score you can get 10 of 10 we will be back.

Excellent St. Louis style spareribs! As well as the candied yams, black beans & rice, fresh cornbread and housemade lemonade. I've only eaten here once, but I will certainly back to try more of their great soul food. Highly recommended
