    The food was amazingly delicious- I had turtle soup and griller redfish, which were fabulous. The service was very attentive, The restaurant was too cold for my group- we all complained to each other, and very noisy, but manageable. I would go back for the food, but take a heavy coat!

    All of the food we ordered was very good and a reasonable price. Server was young, seemed inexperienced and did not even offer us options for coffee and dessert. We received more info from the bus boy than our server. We would up leaving and going to a coffee shop afterwards for dessert. Restaurant was not busy, so no excuse for rushing us out.

    Everyone enjoyed their meals! The Spinach Artichoke soup was wonderful! Most of us had the Triple Wedge, always a winner. Brandy and her team are excellent 🤩

    The food was traditionally New Orleans but not the flavor. Across the 3 entrees we ordered neither of them own flavor.

    Service was great, food was a 8.5 on a scale of 10 and given the open setting the noise level was above average. Would recommend it for a quick brunch/lunch but not for intimate or business meetings. Keep up the great work!!!
