My husband and I had a great time for my birthday. The appetizer (bacon wrapped shrimp) and the entrees, (Jambalaya Pasta, Stewed Oxtails) were amazing. Our server Sam took real good care of us and helped us make our food selections. The live music was good but the people dancing made it much more enjoyable. I gave the food 4 stars only because the dessert was not good at all. Hubby had Banana Pudding, I had the Peach Cobbler. Not sure if it was just an off night or if they just aren’t good. Other than that, totally worth the experience. We will be back.
