    We really enjoyed this restaurant. Not a large place, it felt intimate and friendly. Our waitress was attentive, did not rush us or make it feel like we couldn’t relax. The food was very good. Would go back when I’m in New Orleans.

    We went for brunch on New Year’s Day. My husband enjoyed the French toast, I thought my steak & frites entree was delicious and our girls both had the awesome breakfast sandwich. Our waitress, Angel, was attentive. We all enjoyed our experience and plan on going back.

    This was by far the best meal we had during our trip to New Orleans. The atmosphere, service and food were all amazing. We were greeted by the kindest person when we first arrived and from there the server was precious along with everyone else who touched our table. Both entrees were delicious and the apple cake was phenomenal. We can’t wait to come back next year, thank you for making our anniversary so special!

    Chicken dinner was wonderful. Drinks were also very good. But the lounge was understaffed, so service was extremely slow.
