I absolutely loved the energy at The Block! The staff was so friendly, patient and helpful! Even who I believe was security was great. The food was also tasty, I will definitely be back. Live DJ from 12-3 during brunch on the weekend and he definitely had the vibes! I ordered the Say Less & it was good. My waitress Ebony was a delight. Money well spent!

Vinny was a great server and we enjoyed our meal before heading downtown. Vinny also saved the day by chasing us down to give us our forgotten car key fob before we got out of sight, thanks again!
