My Dad grew up in the South, so this food (down to the bottle of Crystal hot sauce) is what I grew up with. Now that he's passed, I turn to this place when I'm in need of a little comfort food. It's traditional Creole cuisine, but elevated with top quality ingredients and precision preparation.Vegetarian options: Wild Mushroom Jambalaya, cornbread muffins, hush puppiesDietary restrictions: Lots of GF options

Was here for a family dinner on a weekend night. Had been here many years ago and am glad that to find that it is still open. The atmosphere was warm and cozy and it was packed with people. Ample parking. Food was amazing - we had the fried chicken, etouffee, soup, oysters and risotto. The beignets were really good too. Service was quick but the food took a while to be served. Drinks were so-so. Will return when craving Cajun food.

Service and atmosphere was good, but I care more about the food when choosing a restaurant. And sadly, food didn't taste good at all...

Absolutely delicious. Everything I had was cooked to tender perfection and flavorful. The chicken was especially tender. The andouille sausage had a lovely kick. I love that they had gluten free options.The interior is cute. Service staff is polite and does a great job. There’s also plenty of parking.

Finally had dinner here after driving by for years. Why did we wait so long? Super delicious Cajun food and friendly service. Had the jambalaya, hush puppies, and cheese grits. All were perfect. Finished with the beignets and chocolate sauce.We will be coming back regularly.

A little piece of New Orleans in San Carlos. Have dined here over several years, food consistently stellar. Restaurant used to be white tablecloth and Mardi Gras beads, miss that atmosphere, but menu and chef remain on point.Parking: Shared with another business whose signage claims most of the parking.

Southern comfort food. Buttery fresh corn muffin. Fluffy and airy beignets.Fried chicken was flavorful, and blackened chicken was made with the right amount of spices.

Incredible food and incredible service! I’ve been a few times now will keep coming back. The mushroom jambalaya is a highlight for me, so many great seasonal mushrooms the first time I had the dish there were beautiful morels! The fried chicken was also fantastic.On top of amazing food the staff are incredibly helpful and all seem genuinely happy to be there, which makes the experience even better. Positive vibes and great food ? can’t wait to come back and try another dish!
