    Welcome Home! This was the initial greeting and then you're off to a wonderful meal. Our waiter, Nicholas, explained EVERYTHING and offered excellent choices. It was a party of six (6) and everything we ate, we couldn't get enough of. There were a few items we wanted to try; however, they weren't available...gave us even more reasons to come back HOME!!!

    The food is very tasty but a little expensive. The lighting was a little too dark to see the presentation of the food. And the bathroom needs to be more managed more often.

    Celebrated my sisters bday yesterday and the vibe was on point from the moment I walked in the door. Food was amazing, music was everything. Dj did an amazing job with the music getting the guest hype to hit the floor and sing our hearts out. Definitely can’t wait to go back.

    This was my third time going to Native. Drinks here are always good. The hookah was really good too. This time around they were really busy so service wasn’t so great. We had to ask for utensils and drinks too a while to come out. Overall, my party and I had a good time and I would go back.

    Please keep and mind this was on valentine day.The worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant, we reached there around 11pm and got a table, their was a prix fixe menu soo we ordered everything at once. we got our appetizers and drinks at a fairly decent time after ordering, my chicken was room temperature so they had to take it back to reheat it and then after that things got really bad, we waited over a hr in a half didn't receive our entrees at all also waited on our 2nd round of drinks for over a hr and when my wife received her drink it was watered down like it was sitting there, we literally had to order a shot to add to the drink mind you we are still waiting on our entrees, so now a hr and a half has passed at least, we've already have spoken to someone who represents them on social media,3 waiters, a supervisor and literally the manager her name was Ray, all these ppl have came to us and told us they are going to make sure they check on our meal, so as we still just wait final Ray comes to us tell us she see our meals ready and should be to us soon, soo we are still just waiting the ppl two tables away from us finally get their food soo im thinking they are about to start just bringing everyones food because everyone has just been sitting for hr+ for food, soo we still just waiting for the food the manager walks over to us and tells us the the server has given our entrees to the wrong table and we will have to wait for god knows how much longer, obviously my wife was very frustrated at this point she voice that she was willing to wait any longer and she just would like her dessert the manager (Ray) said ok she understands, but instead of her saying we will take care of the bill on the house, she says we will take the entrees of the bill and also the shot we ordered to fix the mess up drink the served my wife soo now im very frustrated as well after being told this i told my wife we are leaving, soo we got up and walked out. Completely ruined our vday.

    Where do i even begin… we got there at 10:30. We did not eat anything until 3 hours later… they finally brought out appetizers. Had to wait another hour for them to come tell us that they ran out of what we ordered. I’m not sure at what point they realized they didn’t have what we ordered but I’m sure it wasn’t 4 hours after seating us. When we left we took modified version of our order home. Would’ve left sooner but the drinks were strong.

    Great! Was greeted at the door, walked to our table and our server Jai C took care of us right away! She noticed my wife was pregnant and went above and beyond. Thank you! The food was incredible! The Nigerian Goat soup really hit the spot!

    Native was definitely an experience. I didn’t expect it to be so much fun. Service was great. I really loved that the manager came around to make sure everything was good and even joined in on the dancing. I definitely made a great choice in coming here for my birthday and would definitely go back.
