    this is my second time here in two days! The wings, the sandwiches, and the greens are delicious. But the main thing is the happy hour! The drinks are good and inexpensive. our bartender was Chris, and he is awesome! Such a great personality and I love his music choice! Not to mention, he kept the drinks flowing.

    I had an extremely quick and easy experience today. I previously went to the Nashville location months prior and was happy to hear that it was coming to Memphis, Tennessee. I walked in, and I was greeted by the very kind staff at the front. I ordered a four piece chicken tender combo with mac & cheese and honey mustard as my sauce for takeout. The wait time was about 7 minutes and the food was piping hot. Both the inside and outside look extremely clean and welcoming. The restrooms were very clean and sanitary. The food tasted amazing when I got home and I will definitely be coming back. I enjoyed my experience.

    This is my first time here and I haven’t even tasted the food yet because I’m literally writing this review to show how appreciative I am of the STELLAR customer service here, from the young man at the register with the glasses to Maya at the bar, (hope I got her name right), they were all professional, nice, and attentive. Experience 11/10! Update: Maya, the girl at the bar that made this definitely did her BIG ONE! The slushies are good and strong!

    This is the best catered food. I went to Concorde Memphis for a diploma pick up. I left with a plate. The Mac and cheese was good without the orange look. The muffin was savory. The greens a mild blend of spices and ham pieces. The hot sauce was hot, but not overpowering. All of the food microwaved well.
