We highly recommend fried green tomatoes as an opener!!!!! Wowza!!!! We had a fantastic meal and the service was A1!!!!!

Rapture Restaurant offers a warm greeting and a tempting menu that keeps diners coming back. The amazing drinks and friendly service make guests feel like family. With a no-frills, Cajun-leaning vibe, the restaurant features a secluded outdoor area and a pool table in the back bar, perfect for a relaxed evening. While some may find the service a bit slow, the food is delicious, with highlights including the hillbilly Eggrolls, the fried green tomatoes, and the papà legba burger.
The location is well thought out, allowing for enjoyable people watching, especially from the patio on a nice evening. After twenty years, a visit to Rapture for lunch or dinner is still a great choice, with engaging staff and outstanding food. The collard greens and gumbo have received high praise, with many noting them as the best they've ever tasted. Even with dim lighting and aged decor, the atmosphere invites guests to return, especially with the enticing aroma of burgers wafting from the kitchen.
