I hadnt been to Cornerstone in quite a few years and I soon as I walked through the door the smell hit me and I remembered why Ive stayed away. The restaurant still smells like it was recently mopped with a very old and smelly mop head, using dirty water that was left in the bucket from the day before. I would have been able to overlook the fact that the food wasnt that good if the smell wasnt so invasive.

Its a very cozy spot something I wouldnt have expected from a sport venue. The service was incredibly quick and the food was excellent. The friend Mac & cheese balls were absolutely divine, very soft Inside and a light crunch outside, as well the spicy chicken burrito.

Sadly but the issue here is still race similar to when you walk into a convenient store and the clerk is telling you hurry up and buy. The bartender during the night time shift act like he never has seen a black man before, upon feeling uncomfortable while I bent over the bar so he can hear the correct drink that he was evidently pouring wrong. This turned his true colors thus having me kicked out of the establishment by other black men who did not care to even hear my side of the story but yet tuck their tails and do the bidding of another against one of their own. Most definitely will never darken
