   It was a great experience for my first time, meet CheSa personally. Such a caring person when it comes to the service at the restaurant. The food was amazing, especially those green tomatoes! I will def be back to visit soon!

   The restaurant wasn’t at all what I was expecting however the only waiter was friendly. The lemon drop Martini was perfect. The food: the oysters weren’t right, the greens were salty & they were chargrilled but cold. The catfish was delicious but my jambalaya was so salty I couldn’t enjoy it. My husband’s lamb was cooked to perfection. Overall it was a good dinner however the saltiness, inconsistency with temp & the price is why I gave them a three.

   I had the pleasure of dining here recently, and it was absolutely delicious! The food was fantastic, and the service truly stood out. Despite a large group already being seated when we arrived, the servers were incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that our food came out in a timely manner. The atmosphere was vibrant and inviting, making for a great overall experience. I’m already planning to bring many of my out-of-town guests here to share in the great food and warm vibe this place offers. Highly recommend!

   We were seated promptly. They only had two servers as far as I could tell and both were new (one specifically was in training) but the main server hustled the best he could. I hope they get more servers soon but he still managed (he just looked overwhelmed). Even still the service was not lacking. The food was delicious and I love the ambiance. I'll definitely be back. I had the Cajun omelet and a waffle. I really liked the waffle. I will return to try other dishes for sure!

   We had a group of 9 which we booked weeks in advance. I even called the restaurant 2 days before. We were celebrating a birthday. The service was extremely poor- took over an hour for 8 drinks and 2 hours for appetizer. The manager advised they were short staff but the place is not big and only had maybe another 10 people dining in the front. Definitely the worse experience I ever had at any restaurant. We will not come back to this restaurant ever again!

   The salmon croquettes didn’t taste like salmon and more like a crab cakes. The food was not worth the price in my opinion. I dined during the brunch menu.

   Not what I expected. The service was friendly but they were short-staffed so it took longer than expected to order and receive our drinks. I ordered the New Orleans omelette and it was very salty.

    Portions are not proportionate to the cost of the dish. Food was delicious. Drinks are Great and worth the Price.
