So I purchased tickets for 75$ for the “brunch full of baddies brunch and day party event for 12/8/24 I get here and no one asked about my reservations they just asked how many and took me to my seat. When I Brought it up to the server and she brought over the owner. She was super cool and apologetic it was a misunderstanding so she took the cost of the 🎫 tickets off my bill which was great. Kudos to her for doing what she could to rectify the situation. Now about the review our servers didn’t take long to come over to take our orders our drink orders came out quick I ordered the lemon drop martini 🍸 which were two for one my friend ordered the daiquiri flight ✈️ which came with 4 different small daiquiris which were all delicious and you were able to taste the liquor 🥃 the atmosphere is nice it’s plenty of seating I got here around noon it wasn’t packed. There was a DJ the music was nice that 90’s RNB vibe. It’s televisions throughout if you want to watch the game I ordered the wings and shrimp 🦐 platter my friend ordered the catfish with grits and eggs. The price is reasonable. Ok so my wings were too sale salty I couldn’t finish them but the vibe was so great I will def come back. Even though it wasn’t karaoke night, they did karaoke and it was lit 🔥👧
Came here with a group of 6 this evening with high expectations, we arrived at 5:45 received drinks and appetizers in a timely manner and ordered our food by 6:30. There was a large party ahead of us with no one else in the building when we arrived. Of course we expected a little bit of a wait for our food, but waiting an hour and a half is a little excessive. When we received our food, the food was cold, half of it was wrong and my order was basically inedible. I ordered a shrimp poboy that came on a very hard piece of bread, and the shrimp was overcooked and rock hard. The manager had no problem comping my meal, but nothing we ordered was worth the 2 hour wait. The DJ was the only thing I can say is okay about this place. Service could be better, food could be better and I can get better drinks worth the price somewhere else. all around a disappointing experience. Will not come back here.
Usually when you go in places a little before close you feel rushed. This was completely the opposite. Waiter was very knowledgeable and welcoming. The live music was great service was great. Definitely going back when im back in the Jax area.
In this case Looks was very deceiving. Very disappointed with the quality as a first time customer will not be going for the wings. They were tasteless had absolutely no flavor. I ordered the dry Ranch and Garlic Parm and was extremely disappointed that they were not up to what you expect from a place that caters to wings basket etc. My friend ordered the dry Lemon Pepper..same thing harldly no flavor.The fries were mediocre, again no seasoning you have to definitely add salt and drown in hotsauce just to make them eatable, and im not a person that feels like I should have to do all.of that just to eat something that is too easy to prepare. On another note the Daiquiri were a hit. And the waitress was really nice in spite of our dissatisfaction with the food.
Definitely not catfish, but defined swai like 90 percent on Jacksonville restaurants even though the servers, waitresses, and bartenders swear by it. Grease old and can taste it. Daiquiris was the best thing there. Food has no flavor or real depth. The cook was waeing shorts and wiping his nose pants with gloves on.
Was a little disappointed, because I was informed it would be karaoke night when it ended up being line dancing. Also, the garlic parmesan drummettes were fried to hard in my opinion and the pinkie daiquiri drink tasted like I was drinking pepto-bismol. 🤢 However, the atmosphere and other daiquiris were pretty nice.
I would like to update my review!!! So I went back a 2nd time because the owner reached out to me to give her establishment another try. So on this day I go and the hostess explains to me that the cook was not in the kitchen was running late and the daquiri machine is broken. While she is telling me this my mother is on the phone with the owner giving her the details on what is going on. No problem so the daquiri machines were not broken they were out of liquor from the previous weekend. So the hostess comes over 2-4 different menus (mind you I only came back because the owner asked that I would give her establishment another chance). The menus are false advertisement. I asked for nachos and the hostess/waiter advised she will have to ask the cook if he's making nachos on this day. The owner is still on the phone as I'm having this conversation. Sooo as I'm looking around as the owner asked me to the place was filthy as if they did not clean up from the night before (I have pictures). The floor was sticky, tables and booths. Let's not talk about the bathroom. Fast foward the cook finally arrives to work. I was able to order my nachos and why did I do that? I ordered chicken nachos, they were smothered in sour cream and there was no chicken it sight. So I asked the manager Jessica could I get extra chicken because there was none on the nachos. She comes back to say the cook said he put chicken on them, now I'm a paying customer if I ask for more of something that I'm paying for who is the cook to tell me I can't? Jessica brings me a plate of chicken that was RAW! When I say RAW I mean RAW. Good thing I examined my food please don't forget the owner is still on the phone. Jessica apologized, but needless to say I didn't eat any nachos after that. Oh my mom ordered some lemon pepper wings that were mediocre. The owner did comp my food because she asked me to come back because I was not, well never now. I explained to the owner I have a cleaning business that maybe I can help her out, she stated she has someone to come in and clean. The problem is as a black business owner we have to take accountability and not make excuses when the consumer is not in the wrong. The owner asked that I don't post my pictures because she doesn't want her business to look bad, I'm saving you because of what? REVIEWS do not LIE. I will continue to post reviews on establishments whether the service was good or bad because this my hard earned money that I'm spending. Oh I almost forgot to mention that there is a 15% gratuity for parties of 5 or more people, we only had two. So I explained to the owner about this situation after my first visit and she said they do not do that. She explained she spoke the waitress who charged the gratuity the first time I came in because she thought she was not going to get a tip. So you have people over charging your customers so they make sure they will get a tip...no no no that is wrong and fraud. REVIEWS do not LIE, I know my little coins don't matter to this establishment, but I won't be patronizing D'bos ever again even if it's FREE!!! I WILL NEVER GO TO THIS PLACE AGAIN. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT ON THEIR MENU. STATES 10 WINGS AND FRIES FOR $12.50 WHEN I ORDERED THE WAITRESS STATED IT COMES WITH 5 WINGS SO I DECIDED NOT TO ORDER. I WAS CHARGED 15% GRAUTITY FOR A PARTY OF 5 OR MORE AND MY PARTY WAS ONLY 2 PEOPLE. THERE IS NOT A SIGN STATING THIS IN THEIR ESTABLISHMENT. THE WAITRESS STATED THIS HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED IN THEIR SYSTEM. I'M ALL FOR SUPPORTING BLACK BUSINESSES BUT THIS PLACE I WILL NEVER GET MY SUPPORT. WE HAVE TO DO BETTER, NOT GET AN ATTITUDE WITH CUSTOMERS WHEN THE BUSINESS WAS IN THE WRONG. THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU WILL BE HEARING FROM. I WISH I WOULD HAVE READ THE REVIEWS BEFORE PATRONIZING THIS PLACE. MUSIC WAS EXTREMELY LOUD WITH ONLY 5 PPL IN THE PLACE, YOU HAVE TO KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE.
It was my first time going so we went on a Friday afternoon for lunch. I love the wings. I love the daiquiris. A bit pricey but money well spent having a good time with my other half.
If you like wings, say no more. The garlic Parm were out of bounds! Burger with loaded fries was fresh and well dressed. Our server "Blue" was fast, courteous, and cheerful!
The Place was a Vibe the music was Good, it was Karaoke night watch the creep dj he will ask your Girl why she didn’t buy him food when you bought her food lol very unprofessional. Dj only came to our table when I went to the bar to buy drinks I guess that’s a compliment to my date for looking so stunning lol. The waiters were ok they work hard to serve the load of people that was there. The food was not acceptable. For $23 I got 5 wings and 2 slivers of fish. I understand we have to make profit but the portions were not portioning. I then just ordered the tenders they were juicy. I mean it was a let down because you see the instagram videos and Tik Tocs thinking that’s the meal you will receive but in the heat of the moment they were not able to provide that level of Gourmet food service
