Eric S., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Feb. 20, wrote, "What a flavor experience. This is a wonderful place to try new and excellent food with explosive flavor, with just enough of a twist that it keeps you guessing what area inspire such flavor."
Yelper Camille F. added, “...The shrimp and grits was amazing quality and cooked to perfection. The shrimp was so juicy and paired well with the richness of the grits... The spam and crispy rice was out of this world. This is a great twist to spam musubi but even better and crispier.”
