I love love love love love this place. I literally go minimally once a week. The staff is very friendly and you feel like family there the food is great. The drinks are even better.
Always a delicious experience and the staff is awesome!!!
The crab cake appetizer was delicious and could make a meal for 1. The chicken piccata was huge and way too lemony/sour for my taste. The pork slider and jambalaya were very good. Children were served quickly and enjoyed their meals. The servers were very attentive. We arrived just as they opened and were warmly welcomed for our reservation.
