Food Phenomenal. Service was Amazing. Our Server was "C" She was Super Nice and made us feel at home. Great Place. Will definitely go again. True Southern Food. Locals/regulars at the counter singing along with music, I had to join in.

The Shrimp and Andouille Gumbo tasted as if it was made from a frozen tv dinner meal (not tasty), the shrimp were a little darker than I like but they were the best part of the gumbo meal, the Bleu Cheese Burger was good, and the chicken wings were also good. Not a bad spot just don't get the gumbo.

We had such an excellent lunch here today, and couldn't recommend it more. The food was delicious and the service was great. Greg was the best and really elevated the already great time we had. We are from out of town, but the next time we are in the area we will be returning. Also - get the black and gold po' boy, it was the best.

I definitely recommend this place, the food is super delicious, jambalaya is one of my favorite dishes at this place, the quality service, the waiter Anthony served us very well, we feel well received in this place, the food, service and sensational atmosphere. You have to go approve their dresser, the only thing I would change would be the decoration but I loved everything else 100% ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ordered the Jambalaya. The 1st bite was extremely cold. It seemed as if it was reheated. Next morning was in the bathroom, sick.

The food was absolutely amazing! The waitress on the other hand seemed a bit bothered that we didn't like our drink. We still tipped her well

I hate to rate this restaurant so low as the food was incredible but the service was some of the worst I have ever had. My friends and I had lunch on 10/27. When we entered the restaurant, no one greeted us. We had to ask at the bar whether to grab a table or wait to be seated. We were directed to grab a table by someone seated at the bar and they would be right with us. I'm assuming he worked there but maybe not as I never saw him move from his seat. We seated ourselves on the patio. It took almost 15 minutes before anyone came to the table. A young woman dropped off menus and walked away. No inquiry of whether we wanted to order drinks. She came back about 10 minutes later with a pitcher of water, filled glasses for each of us and walked away. We tried to let her know we were ready to order but she ignored us. She returned again when another table sat down near us. We again indicated we were ready to order. She nodded her head our way but instead went to the other table. When I saw this person had zero personality or pep in her step, it's no exaggeration. We finally ordered and our food came very quickly. It was absolutely delicious. The server never refilled our waters or asked if we wanted any other drinks. The food is appropriately spicy for Cajun food and we certainly needed additional drinks. She never returned to clear our empty dishes. I had to go find her server to request the check. I found her hanging out behind the bar. We waited more than 10 minutes for her to return to process the check. My friend again had to go look for her and found her hanging out behind the bar doing absolutely nothing. Sadly, even though the food is great we will never return or recommend this place.

Place was good, upstairs was very loud with conversation. The place amplified people's voices so everything was very loud. I didn't try the food. Service was decent, a rum and coke $14.
So tonight, I had a meeting in Hillcrest and was looking for something out of the ordinary. Found this Louisiana style bar & restaurant and decided to give it a go. I asked Anthony for his recommendation, and he suggested the Black and Gold po boy. I was going to order the trio with the Black & Gold, jambalaya & fries. I looked over across the bar a saw someone eating fried catfish filet on top of rice and shrimp etoufee. I decided on that. So when I received my dish first it looked nothing like it and were strips instead. I was told they did have 1 filet left and would redo it and get me what I saw and ordered. Unfortunately, when it came out it was presented the same way as what originally ordered. Was told the plates weren't clean so that's why I received a bowl instead. Overall the dish was decent, but not something I would come back for. Saving grace was that Anthony the bartender generously offered me the dish compliments on the house. I will definitely come back to try their jambalaya and po boys. Thanks Anthony for your stellar customer service. I just wanted what I saw.

The food here was outstanding. We shared the Guy Fieri special, which was a beef and shrimp po'boy with fries and jambalaya. The sandwich and jambalaya were so good they rivaled the food in the real New Orleans! The white chocolate bread pudding was also delicious. A generous serving which was dense and moist throughout. The bartender was the only one serving, but he did a fine job. Definitely recommend!

It was an absolutely superb experience. Our server was very attentive and courteous. Although she appeared to be the lone server, she didn't falter in her service to our table. Our food was as close to New Orleans as you could be without eating in New Orleans. As Southerners, we were highly pleased. The Cajun pasta and catfish were spot on. The shrimp po-boy was almost perfect. The crawfish eggrolls were delicious. And, of course, the Hurricane drinks brought us back to Bourbon Street. It was also College Football night, so the ambiance was right up my alley. Excellent experience.

The food is delicious! A little taste of New Orleans in San diego. The jambalaya was way too wet, but the catfish was crispy and flavorful. The drinks were super tasty. I suggest the G Bahama. If you're there for happy hour, the wings are a major go to ! I couldn't stop eating them plus the mango habanero to go with it is delicious.
