These are the items that were hits with us…Oysters with Tabiko, Pear Salad, Chayote Caesar Salad, Lobster Bisque, Catfish Nuggets, Potato Wedges, Mac & Cheese. Just okay was the Sticky Quail. Misses for us were the Shrimp Yakamein and Hominy Pot Pie. We ordered the Banana Foster and Cheesecake for dessert. Both were good, but that cheesecake was a heaven!
