Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Went in with friends as a 1st timer. Friends ordered the Greek Panni and the #5 club sandwich with fries. The chicken and waffles were both hot and cooked to order. I asked for an extra crispy waffle with hot syrup and a not so hard tenders. The waffle was perfect with the hot syrup. The tenders on the other hand was not that good. 1st I got tenders too hards and second set wasn't as hard but rubbery. They aren't fresh tenders but instead a pre-packaged type of tenders. I would have come out better ordering an order of the wings and the waffle separate. The kitchen closed at 2:30p so I could not order anything else. The cold slaw was really watery and had alot of carrots and one bite was enough. I gave a 4 star because the food for my friends was good and the service by Lisa was exceptional. I highly recommend updating the chicken tenders.

Stumbled on this gem on a late, rainy Sunday evening. When you pull up in the dark, it’s not very lit and looks very unassuming - do NOT let that fool you. The Restaurant is very clean and comfortable with an almost diner atmosphere. We were immediately greeted and seated. Staff is extremely friendly and efficient. The food was 5star chef’s kiss!! Food is well seasoned and flavorful. Throughout our meal, the staff was constantly checking on us and asking how we liked the food. My husband had a delicious Hickory Burger and I had salmon in a bed of delicious risotto - delicious. It’s a shame we live over an hour away or we would be here all the time. Food - excellent and staff/management even better.

Many go for the breakfast,huevos rancheros are awesome, but they all need to go for the dinner. One of the best meals we have had in Mcdonough in awhile. The shrimp and grits were fantastic. Super creamy with layers of flavor. The pork belly was what stole the show. Beautiful char on the outside paired with mashed sweet potatoes and broccolini cooked to perfection. I would never have thought to pair these three items together personally. Well color me surprised they meld beautifully into a perfect dish that will have you saying "Wow". Went back a week later and once again excellent. We tried new items, the baked chicken and mushroom risotto and the grilled salmon on a bed of wild rice. Both were great!
