The SHRIMP AND GRITS!!!!
What a perfect dish!! Literally... Made to perfection!!
Creamy, cheesy deliciousness topped with fresh, plump, meaty shrimp.
It was so good that I did a little happy dance after I finished eating!!
This dish is hard to find in San Jose and I'm so glad that not only do they make it, but they do it fantastically!!!

Had dinner here on a Friday night and there was a live band! Seating was easy to find, the staff was so friendly and the vibes were great. We tried the jambalaya and the fried shrimp. Both were pretty good! The food came out quickly. Overall a great experience and I’d definitely visit again.
