Server had to leave, so we were a little confused, but the other staff filled in.

Great place to grab lunch, The food was very tasty and different. It wasn't like every other restaurant you see nowadays. The view is stunning, but the service could step up their game. When you're more worried about picking up the check from an empty table then refilling the customer drink. All and all this place is worth coming back to.

Some new friends recommended this to us. We first walked the gardens and then stopped in the cafe. The atmosphere is very cozy, especially if you get a window view, or even better would be to sit outside under the oak trees. The sandwiches were huge. The Bloody Mary was perfect. The bourbon pecan pie was delicious, as was the key lime pie. I was in a T-shirt and shorts, but I feel that a collared shirt would be more appropriate. Great place to take someone to make them feel special.

We came to South Louisiana to experience Cajun cuisine, and this was certainly one of the highlights of our trip. The seafood gumbo and crawfish etouffee were amazing. The restaurant overlooks the gardens creating great atmosphere. The service was outstanding. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Excellent service by both the hostess and the server. Our food came out quickly, the flavor was delicious, but unfortunately it was served room temperature, and they were also out of bread rolls, which was a huge bummer.

The atmosphere was great with beautiful big windows and nature photography. The gumbo was a dark roux New Orleans style. We’ll definitely come again!

Best crab au gratin I’ve ever had (& I get it everywhere). Service was great even for a large party; they were accommodating. View from the dining area was enchanting & I loved all the peacocks outside. Highly recommend.

Quaint little restaurant overlooking the lake, great sandwiches and amazing seafood bisque, don't miss out on dessert either, bread pudding and white chocolate salted caramel molten cake is to die for!
