Food was very expensive for the tiny portions that were served. Food lacked flavor & was sort of just burned. Ordered the blackened catfish & it was horrible, on top of being a tiny serving. Fried catfish was also very bland & only tasted like breading. Macaroni & cheese was ok, the cornbread was fire tho.

We stopped here before a movie. Bummed about the brisket not being available but when the waitress explained why, it made sense. We had the Pulled Pork sandwich, and the Mac n cheese. Everything was delicious and the staff was friendly.

Our Hush puppies were remade twice and twice they were ice cold in the middle. The server kindly took it off and gave us a slight discount on our drinks. They were out of basically the whole menu except about 4 things. Rest of the food was either poorly seasoned or over salted or completely inedible. Left with an upset stomach. Only plus was the good server and good drinks. We paid nearly $80 and left hungry and unsatisfied.

Tried all the appetizers and they were amazing. The Gumbo was a hit.

The chairs are the perfect height for cracking my upper back. And also I like the food. Not every BBQ joint has Alabama White and Carolina Gold.

I met James the bartender and the cook waldee. I had the best pulled pork I had in a long time. The service and food was 10/10. I will definitely be coming back. It's a little hidden but definitely worth a visit

got a rack of ribs and some red beans and rice, i always get my ribs dry with sauce on the side, rib bark was moist and gritty, not great but edible at least, by far the worst ribs i've had in the city, red beans and rice was decent but nothing to write home about.

Not enough seasoning, too much grease.Even my salad was so full of oil, George W Bush wanted to invade it.

Food was ok but nothing really special. The sides were especially lacking and uninspired. With the relatively high price and small portion sizes ($4 for a square of overly sweet and spongy cornbread, $6 for a small cup of mac n cheese that were incredibly basic shells and sauce), this doesn't really offer anything that would keep me coming back. Overall it was food, so if you really really want Cajun then i guess go here.
