Drove 45mins to get the Nigel special. A waste of time and $50. Not what’s pictured on their Facebook page. Didn’t even have the butter season on the food. Very plain , better off at juicy

The cook also has a business called Legin's Mobile Hibachi, but there isn't a yelp or google listing to save a review for this. I attended an event less than 24 hours ago and I wouldn't book this restaurant. The cook and staff were supposed to arrive and set up at 5:00pm and start cooking at food at 6:00pm. They arrived at 6:38pm. The excuse was there was traffic driving from Hendersonville, to West if Hendersonville. If that's the case then you leave early for a business owner that does this on a regular to arrive on time. He was extremely late and it took him a while to set up. He served with stainless steal forks and spoons no knives to cut your chicken and steak especially when he doesn't chop the food up like regular hibachi chefs. The rice was very crunchy and hard for some odd reason and everyone complained about it. The cook served rice first with onions, zucchini, & squash, then broccoli second. The final addition was the meat. The cook didn't communicate with the guests like hibachi chefs do. His staff consisted of a 14 or 15 year old and a 20 to 21 year old. The guest of honor had to take the orders around the table. Let's talk about payment: when given an invoice, the cook doesn't include the taxes. The invoice consists of just the charges for the food. Then he sent a separate invoice for taxes, mileage, and gratuity with a huge gap in the amount of days received. Last but not least the food was terrible. Nothing like hibachi. The menu states the hibachi includes rice, noodles, vegetable salad with house dressing and a chefs choice for dessert. No noodles, the dressing was not house dressing it was ranch dressing. And no dessert. The yum yum sauce wasn't homemade, it was store bought as the 20 to 21 year old staff member opened the bottle and poured it. Also, a thought do not use just tea lights on a table with out putting it inside of something. A mini fire started with all of the rose petals that junked up the table.

Fantastic Cajun food!!! It's a little expensive but this is our new favorite place that reminds us of home. The service was quick and friendly. And the atmosphere reminds me of a family owned hole in the wall restaurant. Can't wait to come back!

Amazing, intimate little hide-away! Authentic Louisiana cuisine with all the rustic charm of home. Staff is attentive and kind, taking a warm, personal approach to making you feel welcome as you walk through the door.

Called and placed order was told 20-25 minutes, got there 35 minutes later food still not ready. The staff does not wear mask or practice social distancing. The place smelled terrible and looked grungy. Waited another 15 minutes to get my food, which was loaded mac. Got home and opened the bag and my food looked nothing and I do mean nothing like the pictures on ig. The macaroni and cheese itself was disgusting the noodles were overcooked and the flavor was weird like no mac and cheese I ever had not even drive thru quality. My six shrimp was over cooked and very chewy but my lobster tail was cooked perfectly( hint the 1 star). The biggest waste of money I’ve spent in a long time.

Terrible experience they post videos all day of there menu on social media just for you to get there and them not have what they have been promoting .. Also I ordered a lobster and Macaroni after I order I was told 30-40 mins wait which is reasonable but once 36 minutes go by I go in pay for my food the worker comes to me and says “man we don’t even have lobster anymore can I just give you shrimp?” Like how did you not know that before y’all took my order terrible customer service after that it took literally another 44 mins for them to make my shrimp NEVER WILL I GO BACK the inside is disgusting as well
This food first of all was the best freaking food I've had in so long. Gives me very much ATL vibes. They said the wait would be 25-30 mins but ended up being about an hour wait, which was slightly disappointing but the food made up for it. I'd say just order an hour ahead that way your foods ready when you want it. We ordered the seafood Mac and cheese ( A MUST), the honey gold and garlic butter wings, as well as fries. The Mac and cheese was THE FREAKING BEST OMG, and the honey gold wings were good! Couldn't taste much with the garlic butter. Fries were seasoned to perfection. Definitely will go again!

Great food and filled with flavor. Definitely worth the money and good portions. The steak and chicken Stir fry is my favorite. The Resturant is right next to the Marathon gas station

The customer service was great! The person on the phone took my order very well and the employees bring the food outside to you. The food is not expensive and the lobster tails are to die for. If you are looking for some good seafood from a black owned and operated seafood spot in Nashville then this is the place for you. I paid $25 for 2 lobster tails, corn and eggs. I forgot to take pics but it was that good.

My 1st visit here was very disappointing. $40 for 1 to-go plate. Although, the food was flavorful the customer service and portion size were sub-par to say the least. The associates also seemed to be under the unfluence. Under better circumstances, I may give them another try but please do better.

How do you call in a order and still have to wait?!? My seafood platter had absolutely no flavor. So disappointed. And they always don't have something. Somebody has to go get more rice, butter, ranch etc. I try to support my own, but dang. The owner needs to really look at these reviews and get his business in order. There's no point opening up other locations when your current ones aren't doing well. He needs to get someone with manager/restaurant experience to run each location. The wait time, food presentation, customer service!!!
The restaurant is closed. Now it’s a church.
