    Service was great. Food was good. A good place to go to get away from the tourist spots.

    We visit New Orleans and this restaurant once a year. This year the quality here has slipped greatly. It took nearly an hour to get our breakfast after ordering even though there was only one other table in the restaurant occupied. The food was overdone, and bland. The cala cakes for which the place is known were tough to the point of hard to cut. And someone needs to wipe off the railing to the upstairs restrooms -- that thing is sticky. All and all, very disappointing after many years of not being disappointing at all.

    It took a long time to be seated, even though there were plenty of tables, because there were only 2 servers. When I finally was acknowledged I was told they don't take reservations. The food was OK, but nothing special. The server was very sweet.

    The food and service were fine nothing special but fine. The atmosphere really destroyed the meal however. In a city know for its music the dining space was absolutely silent and made for a very awkward time.

    We had made reservations but they didn't have them when we got there. I made them 2 weeks ahead of time (because there was 10 of us). I showed them all of my email confirmations so they sat us but only if we went fast because they had another big party coming in. Our Waitor was awesome but they rushed everything and were really rude about it.
