This was my first visit and I’m sorry to say I will never be back. The booths were very uncomfortable and the chairs dragging across the floor were extremely loud and unsettling. There was not one decent red wine available and the only one they had was served chilled. I sent it back and got a cocktail but it was not very good. The vegetables were good and peeled shrimp. The andouille sausage was poor quality and came cold. Crawfish tasted old so I didn’t eat much of it. The dishes are so messy, I was upset the napkins were not large enough to lay on your lap. I was also disappointed that I was given salt & pepper in a to go container, plastic silverware and a paper tray. This is not a quick serve restaurant so expected a real plate and real flatware. Bummer!

The food is good came out fast though the attentiveness is alittle lacking I know I can ask for refills but it's nice when they notice your mouth is on fire and ask if you need a refill lol
Parking: Since there are other restaurants and bars that are seemingly more popular they take up most of the spots
Wheelchair accessibility: No steps in sight super wheel chair friendly
Came here tonight for the first and last time. Today was National Oyster Day, so that was the reason I came here. It was Happy Hour, so I ordered a dozen. I finished them and wanted to order more, and was told that the Happy Hour price was only good for the 1st dozen, so I said nevermind. I was then ignored for the next 25 minutes, and then the waiter finally came back to me and asked if I wanted my check. I originally was gonna order more food, but with the terrible service, I ordered food from somewhere else to pick up on the way home. The restaurant was not busy at all, no excuse. But, looking at other reviews, I guess it's normal here.

The food is very good but the service is terrible, they take too long, if you want extra beers or sodas....the waitress forgot to attend to our table once we ordered...she came up to tell us that we were busy until about 30 minutes. We asked for sodas and the sodas never arrived. Finally, another 20 minutes passed and another one came. It's not the girls' fault...it's that they need more waitresses...there were only two for the entire restaurant...it's Friday night.

Food is wonderful, dine in service is ridiculously bad. We often come here for dinner and the service is always incredibly slow. Definitely not a place to come if you aren't in the mood for the leisurely dinner. But the quality of food makes it worth it - until our most recent visit. The place is always near empty, but you can't get your server's attention for anything. They also do not bus tables very often, so there are constantly three or four tables piled with dirty dishes. (I know poor service is an ongoing issue at this location - check out the 1-star reviews - despite the restaurant responses that they will work on it.) I'm sticking to two stars because the food is great.
Against my better judgment, we booked for a party of 12 on a weeknight - my daughter asked for Crawfish Cave after her graduation ceremony.
I am not exaggerating - it took 30 minutes to just put in a drink order, another 20 for the drinks to come out. (We had two toddlers with us, so any server worth a grain of salt would know time is of the essence when dealing with little ones.)
Dinners came out staggered over the course of an HOUR, half the table had cold meals waiting for the rest of the meals to come out. Those of us that did start eating before everyone else's arrived were done before others were even served. Two orders were wrong and we just let it slide because the service was so ridiculous. The last person waiting for their meal cancelled their order because she hadn't been served for over an hour and shared with her daughter. The server even asked "how everything was" when only 3 people had been served. Instead of actually doing his job, at one point he spent 15-20 minutes hanging out at one of the two tables he was working rather than getting our orders out.
When we complained, we were told they had a lot of takeaway orders come in. Don't you tell takeaway orders to wait longer and prioritize people actually sitting waiting for their food in the restaurant??
We eventually gave up on dinner and got up to get our own takeaway containers and walked over to the manager to get our check. The server apologized when he brought the check over but I definitely got the sense he had no clue what he was apologizing for. They "discounted" our check for the inconvenience - the total discount was for 4% on a $350 dollar check AND they tacked on an 18% auto gratuity for service that was a complete joke. I would have argued the gratuity but at that point, I just wanted to get out of there.
All this in a restaurant that had three other tables occupied while we were there and two servers working (barely). I am all for supporting service workers, but this was over the top incompetence and lack of interest in basic service. They either need some training in wait service or shut down the dining area and only do takeout.
It seems the people working there couldn't care less about anything. I won't be going back in and dining. It was embarrassing to spend that much on a dinner and have my family and friends leave frustrated and unhappy.

Everything was so tasty. Had a great dinner with the family
We went on Friday night and they were definitely short staffed ? but definitely worth the wait. Angel was our server even though they were really busy she was a great server , our food was great and piping hot !!The jambalaya was delicious, I also had medium hot shrimp with corn. My boyfriend had the shrimp po boy and he really liked it..Prices are very reasonable
