    Wow I cannot say enough about my wonderful experience at Toups Meatery. The food was fantastic. We ordered the Meatery board to start and the cracklins were probably the best I’ve ever had. They give those meateries in Scott a run for their money! (And I think they’d beat ‘em!) basically everything on that Meatery board was great. Then we got the pork chop and it was absolutely massive, and delicious. We also sat across from the window from the kitchen and I got a front row view to how chef Toups handles his business and it was such a cool experience to be able to see him run the kitchen. I can’t wait to tell my friends and recommend them to come here!

    Food and service were impecable. Enjoyed an early lunch with my family and everyone was blown away by everything. Roasted brie, filet, ribeye and asparagus were all incredible. Cheesecake and bread pudding were spectacular. Nice view over the river.

    We love Cafe Sbisa It is a really fine dining experience, yet portions are as adequate as our favorite traditional Creole restaurants. The food is amazing and presented with an artful flair. The service is attentive without that annoying overkill, perhaps because a 20% gratuity is automatically added at checkout (less insecure servers). I also appreciate that there are some very affordable bottle wine selections that obviously someone skillfully selected. The sound level was a pleasant conversational buzz that let's you know that people are tastefully enjoying their meals and conversation.

    Big shout to Rudolph and Genie they’ve been the best servers we’ve had the past three times we’ve been there! The food is delicious no complaints, the drinks were so good, but the place felt warm and inviting to stay and order more (which we did)!
