This is me and my husband's second time visiting this restaurant. We were impressed both times. The food is amazing. My husband didn't care too much for the gumbo, but that's his southern palate. I enjoyed everything. The people are friendly and the place is CLEAN. I will be back for their bread pudding for sure!!!

As a neighborhood regular I decided to switch up from my usual dish and ordered the braised short rib with polenta the polenta was absolutely excellent and was extremely flavorful. The short rib was perfectly fork, tender, and the taste melted in my mouth. Admittedly, I am not a fan of spinach, but this spinach was perfectly done and I actually really enjoyed eating it. I’ll have to come back very soon and order this dish again. 10 out of 10. Recommend!
