I was very excited to see a great mocktail list. My jellyfish stinger was delicious! I ordered the farmers salad with salmon. The salad was good, but the salmon still had the skin on. It was a little crispy but not all the way through, and the salmon was very fatty yet overcooked. I did not like the salmon at all. Maybe it's just me. My husband had the shrimp etouffee which was loaded with fresh shrimp. He loved it but I felt the flavor was more Mexican than creole. Again, maybe it was just me. His Caesar salad was great.

Awful was the case here. It started when we arrived and gave our name for an 8 pm reservation. We were told our table was \"being cleaned off\". After waiting about 10 minutes and seeing 2 other parties seated who came after us, I went back to the desk. They asked for my name again and clearly did not remember seeing us the first time. We then waited 5 minutes before a server even approached. Drinks (2 cocktails) were fair at best. My NA beer came in a can and no glass was brought to pour it into. The smoked fish dip and salmon with crispy skin were good but not great. The fish and chips and the tuna tartar were fair. The desserts were really poor - tasteless really. For $268 for 4 of us, it was not a good value because of the fair service, OK to poor food and rude reception. We would not go back.
