Great Atmosphere, Food & Drinks. Not a long wait. We went early on a Saturday, so not sure about the crowd later in the evening

I've gone to BQE several times over the years and it's always been my favorite brunch place for both the vibes and food. I think over time it has become a little less popular so I wondered if it would still be as fun to go in 2024 but last Sunday I figured I would give it a try and it was amazing! The ambiance was perfect.. it wasn't as packed as it used to be (which was a good thing) but there were still a very good amount of people and it was a fun environment for sure. They had a DJ and host and our server was super sweet and took care of us from beginning to end. I ordered the omelette which wasn't bad I just wish I asked them to hold the onions. But the mimosas were HITTING! My cousin and I definitely got a good buzz from the bottomless mimosas we ordered. We overall had an epic time and I can't wait to come back

Let me start by saying I may be a little biased, but we have the time of our life here! It was a friend's birthday and whenever I am with this group of friends, we always have a great time. We came to celebrate a friends birthday for brunch and I decided to get the chicken and waffles. Usually, I prefer my chicken waffles to be with a waffle and chicken tenders. However, this one came with wings and in the spirit of having a great time and not making a big deal out of anything I decided to go ahead and have it , and I'm glad I did. The chicken was well seasoned. I had to add absolutely nothing to it and I was very pleasantly surprised that. (still prefer tenders though) We all had ordered separate drinks, but we all were having bottomless mimosas as well so needless to say this was a very exciting party as the time goes. Now for the servers and hookah, this is when the five star treatment comes in our server ( can't remember her name, unfortunately) what is the epitome of what Southern hospitality was? She literally went down the entire menu breaking down every single item, including allergens and asking everybody if they were had any sensitivities to any foods. She gave us a list of her favorite items to her least favorite items with food drinks in the flavors of the hookah, she could see how excited we were to be celebrating my friends birthday and she came with a ball of energy inside her as well. It was so pleasant. We did not even wanna leave. I wish I could remember her name so I could recommend her to anybody that is going to establishment to celebrate any type of birthday or achievement. I will say that the restaurant is small (very small ) but the servers are super accommodating here and because of the space that's given they told us multiple times not to get up to do anything. They will take care of everything for us and we appreciate that so much.

I was PLEASANTLY surprised with the food here! The vibe is def day party brunch. The music is hip hop and R&B. We sat off to the side at a table. There were groups celebrating birthdays. Our servicer was super sweet and brought our food out quickly. It did take a while for the drinks and the hookah my friends ordered never came. I ordered the red waffle and chicken. It was delicious. Chicken was flavorful and cooked well. Waffle had a tasty glaze. I also ordered the Gouda grits and braised collared greens. The greens were great! A little sweeter than im used to but still cooked well. The grits were good but needed extra cheese.
