    Quirky place with very good food and great service. I had the shrimp and sausage creole and my wife had the blackened grouper. Both were delicious! Our server, Liz was excellent! She not only did a great job, but her warm, southern hospitality made a good experience - great!

    The crab legs were amazing!! Fresh tasting and filling. We got the hushpuppies as an appetizer and those were also divine. Cocktails are strong.

    All in all a good choice. Ambiance was casual and friendly. Food was good and portions were reasonable. Beer was cold. But the lighting was too bright.

    We enjoyed our meal. Looked forward to celebrating New Year’s Eve there but thought the restaurant was brightly lit which took away from the atmosphere. They have one of my favorite desserts on the menu, bananas foster. However, we were told they weren’t serving it because of the holiday.
