    Service and drinks were good. But the entrees left a lot to be desired. We got the boudin balls for appetizer which were delicious, with authentic Cajun spice and crispy outside. The crab bisque was also good. But the entrees - I got the red beans and rice, which were good, except for the fact that the bread was sourdough or some sort of white bread, instead of cornbread. It was bizarre, and I ended up ordering some hush puppies to get my fix of cornbread I desired (they were yum, but it should’ve came with cornbread in the first place!). The Chicago style pizza was absolutely soaking wet. The bottom crust was fully soft from the juice from the sauce and the taste was not good. When the waiter took it away, he had to be careful not to spill all the juices that were on the pizza pan. The waiter warned us that it would take about 30 minutes for the pizza to cook, which we agreed to. But the wait was not worth it to say the least. My fault for getting pizza at a Cajun restaurant maybe? Or is that how Chicago style pizza usually is? I don’t know, the dish was recommended by staff and on the menu. I don’t think I’d come back to eat here bc it was also pretty expensive for the experience we had.

    Been here twice within the last month and had a great experience both times. The first time was with friends and then took family from out of town this past weekend. It was a hit. Great atmosphere with fantastic food, signature holiday drinks, and good service...everything you want!

    This restaurant was a great find. Loved the fusion cuisine. All four of us were very happy with our dishes. Service was great. Lovely historic building. Would definitely eat there again next time I'm in Louisville.
