My wife and I eat there alot we love all of your dishes especially the pasta that's one of our favorites. The service is first class and the prices are very reasonable. Thanks to all of the staff wish you had a location in Prairieville but we make the trip anyway keep up the good work.

Came here for the first time approximately around 1

The food was absolutely delicious!
If you haven't been here, please come to try them.

I am new to Baton Rouge, LA, and so far, a lot of the places have really disappointed me, but this place makes up for them all!!!!!

I can't wait to come back. I will be a regular.

The crab and broc soup: 10/10!!!! No skimping here!...

Great food, but arrogant restaurant management! There’s NOTHING that I resent more than “hidden” charges, whether they’re from a hotel or restaurant. In this case, there was a “to-go” charge, as well as a “service” charge – whatever that is. I have NO problem with convenience stores or restaurants charging me for so-called “extras”, but I expect to be told about these things CLEARLY, & UP FRONT! Didn’t happen in this case. So – guess what happens?...
