It has both indoor and outdoor seating, making it a suitable location for large parties and family gatherings. The menu includes appetizers, salads, main courses, and desserts. Standout dishes include the grilled alligator, catfish with crawfish etouffee, pork scallopini, and white chocolate bread pudding. The restaurant is known for its friendly staff, especially the waitstaff who are attentive and genuinely care about guests. Customers have praised the food, with some dishes like pork scallopini and crawfish Mac-n-cheese being described as phenomenal. The bar area is a popular spot to catch a baseball game or watch the local Louisiana State University team play.

I’m just trying to figure out how they mess up reservation for large party and then try to seat half party by bar and other half on other side of restaurant? You think when Brett found out host messed up you would try to correct instead of trying to sit party separate and then canceling reservations. Luckily we had sense enough to talk to 2 waitress in area to put open tables together in bar area since they screwed up reservation and then act like tables couldn’t be put together....read full review

Big shoutout to our amazing waitress Grace! 🙌 She was super sweet, attentive, and made sure everything about our evening was perfect from start to finish. Her energy and kindness made the whole experience so much better — you can tell she truly cares about her guests 💛. If you go, definitely ask for Grace — she’s the best! 👏🍽️✨

We ate there today and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Only one criticism I had the shrimp and grits and would have been awesome had they only had about half the salt in the dish. Was too salty for me.
