“ I visited “To Be Served” for the first time today!!! Well let me just say, I was truly not disappointed!! Because the owner, Felicia, is a beautiful individual, inside and out and operates in excellence, I would not expect anything less. Well myself and six (and a half) ladies had brunch to celebrate one of the ladies graduating from college. Upon us entering the restaurant, which was extremely crowded, as expected and par for the course, for a Sunday afternoon, we began to wait to be seated. As we had a party of six (and a half) and the restaurant was filled to capacity, the owner, Felicia, opened her private venue for us to dine. As we were not expecting this, the elegance of the room, the treatment from Felicia and her staff was nothing short of amazing!! Not to mention the food was impeccable! We dined after closing time and she never once complained. Talk about customer service to the max!! This was a wonderful experience!! I truly enjoyed myself and will return. If you have not experienced “To Be Served,” I would recommend you visit and dine with them! Blessings to you Felicia, and staff!! Love you guys!!!. Angela Miller!! ”
