    The charbroiled oysters were overcooked. The shrimp salad was bad. The crab salad was good. The waitress was great, but overall it was some of the worst food that I have ever had in New Orleans.

    We confirmed our reservation via the text service. We arrived 3 minutes early only to be told it would be at least a half hour wait. They fail to use the Open Table system to effectively communicate. Was told we could wait at the bar only to find no space. When finally getting table, it took almost 45 minutes to be served good, Service extremely slow. The food was decent.
