Absolutely phenomenal. Chef is *amazing*. Lindsey, lucky, and Paulina are sweethearts and genuinely give great service!

Delish small plate appetizers and wine!

I love southern cooking and was excited to try out this fusion of European with a south Louisiana influence.
The Good: Loved how they poured you a small taster of sparkling wine when you sit, that was a unique touch. We arrived early and they were able to get us seated right away. The waiter was very personable. Wife loved her espresso martini, and I was happy with their selection of wines. The cup of gumbo was absolutely delicious!
The Bad: We tried the caprese appetizer and while it was fine, what was served just didn't warrant the cost of $14 (and this was the happy hour price), though other dishes seemed to be more appropriately priced. The service had gaps, but there was a noticeably long wait between the appetizer/soup and when the entrees arrived. So much so the waiter made a lighthearted joke about it after the fact. The atmosphere is relaxed though, and not a place you would really visit if you were in a rush, so it was forgivable and we never felt totally neglected.
The Ugly: We were told we had to try the Chateau Briand, so both of us ordered it. While each was cooked to perfection, it had been salted beyond ruin. It would have been no different if someone had physically rolled the meat through a pile of salt before cooking it. I'm talking physical discomfort after the fact. I don't know if this was an accident in the kitchen or what, but both of us agreed it was borderline inedible. The potatoes, tomatoes, and accompanying sauce were all incredible though, and had the steak not been over seasoned it would have been 5 out of 5. We would have considered sending it back to try something else had it not taken 45+ mins to arrive at our table.
It's hard not to provide a harsh rating when the main course was a thumbs down, but we otherwise enjoyed the experience and would likely try other entrees in the future and amend our review if the experience improved.

There is a fixed menu and a rotating menu that changes pasta and entrees weekly starting on Tuesdays. It’s all very good and a great place to go if you want great ingredients with normal portion sizes. Staff is all friendly and very helpful with a variety of wines and cocktails to try. There is even a great non-alcoholic cocktail menu too for those that don’t partake. This is a weekly stop or at least menu check in our dinner rotation. Paulina, Kate, and Lucky were behind the bar the night of this review but they are all phenomenal.
Amazing spot for a salad and wine! We loved Lindsay!!

Tables are too small and crampted Service was rushed and got our salads at the same time as main course Waiter was not friendly Rotation of food menu is very odd. People want to come back and eat what they enjoyed. ie apricot meat balls
