They were not prepared for service on a Saturday night. we were a table of four. first we find out that the liquor permit was allowed to lapse so no beer service for tonight. Our orders ca,e out late. The burger and fries cam out first but was almost cold. After ten minutes my wife received her chicken and sausage gumbo. the gumbo had a good flavor but contained one slice of sausage and a few strands of chicken. after another ten minutes the oyster plate and catfish plate arrived. The oyster plate contained three regular sized oyster with thremainder be small remnants of oysters. The catfish plate was just OK. Very disappointed with the meal overall..
The food was great.Had the crawfish etouffee with potato salad and a side of onion rings and blueberry cheese cake. Thank you Paige for being a great waitress

Jameson was the best server we ever had! However, the steak tasted weird, almost like lighter fluid. When we told the waiter, he said the manager “offered to cook it longer”. We literally paid for steak that wasn’t fit to eat and now have to go elsewhere to feed our son something else to eat. Also hearing the manager yelling at the kitchen staff is very unprofessional. This was our first and last time to eat there!
This place is awsome

A friend from work took me here. I liked it so much I brought my wife back the very next day. If you are in the Monroe/West Monroe area and you want a taste of Louisiana, this is the restaurant for you. My favorite is the crawfish etouffee. It’s lip smackin good!

All in all a great experience. The food was beyond delicious. The staff were awesome. The place was clean with really cool vibes. We went there on accident, and super glad we did. 10/10!!!

My parents and I went to this lovely restaurant after Saturday church. The workers were some of the most polite ones I've ever encountered. The waitress gave top notch service. The food was incredible and they were very generous with their portion sizes. The environment was extremely cozy and well decorated. Positive vibes all around. My dad says that if we could, we would give this place six stars, but since we can't, we give it five. :)

Had the boiled shrimp. Was large plate. Good but overcooked? Server was good, kept refills. Salad was pretty typical with a creamy Italian dressing. Other on menu looked good and will try next time. Looked good on neighboring table
Very good traditional and unique NOLA style seafood. We will be back!
