We first wrote about this restaurant in May, when they were doing carry-out orders and finishing the construction. They said they’d open in June and today they officially posted on their facebook page the doors are open and they are welcoming guest to dine in with them.
Owner Jamie Campbell said it’s been she and her partners dream to open a restaurant for about a decade and they’re excited to make it a reality. They share a love of rum and have a rum-based BBQ sauce line that is currently sold locally at Dorothy Lane Market and Dots Market. The sauce offerings include honey rum, sweet rum and spicy rum as well as a forthcoming rum and Coke sauce as well as a glaze in the same flavor. All the sauces will be available to add as side for any order as well as a sauce option for the restaurant’s chicken wings.
While the restaurant has rum in its name, guests won’t be able to order a cocktail with their meal, at least not at first. The eatery plans to get its alcohol licensing in the fall, at which time it will serve alcohol in addition to food.
