Another Morrows experience! Great location in the French Quarter with very friendly service. Only had one drink which was similar to a French 75. Fine but not remarkable. Bar was VERY slow. Food was good…I had the bulgogi. Ask for a little spice on the side if you need some heat. Music was too loud for comfortable conversation. Decor was nice. Walk-ins welcome, but reservations are best. I do plan to return now that I know the drill.

Gumbo dumplings and crawfish fried rice were very good. The only issue I had was that I was sitting under a vent and it was very cold.
