I love a good family-owned spot!
Backstory: My girlfriends felt some kind of way that I had traveled to Charlotte several times and never invited them. So, I took them and made a commitment to come to this little place that I'd had my eye on for quite some time. Little did my friends know, they didn't have a choice in the matter.
So, we stopped by before heading to a party. Everyone was so sweet and gracious, which already had me sold. The space is a little small but I feel like the tables are well-spaced. We happened to go on a night where there was a live saxophonist and it really added to the ambiance, along with the guest performer who belted out a tune or two (come to find out, she was also a patron lol). The food was awesome! Very well seasoned, but not salty. The chicken was tender (which surprised me, because I'm not a fan of breast due to the dryness), and the portions are plentiful. All three of us had enough for leftovers the next day.
I forgot to mention, we were also celebrating a birthday! The sax player played the Birthday song for our table and Chef Rob took extra special care in making my friend a birthday treat. It was beautiful and delicious!
All in all, I'd definitely go back. Rumor has it that the brunch is great.
