    Everyone was friendly and warm! More delicious food than we could eat! If you have a chance to celebrate a birthday here, just know that you will have a blast! Couldn’t have ended our stay on a brighter note than this charming, delightful restaurant! (And try the Bananas Foster, even if you don’t especially like bananas, the sauce even just on the vanilla ice cream, the story, it’s worth it even if you end up feeding most of the banana to your dining companion. ^_^) Six star service!

    Wonderful experience, again! Took our visiting friend for lunch! Everything was superb! Started with the Frozen Cranberry Martini, move on to the baked oysters, split the best red fish almondaine ever and house salad with 2 great dressings! Oh forgot the puff potatoes, make sure you gobble them up when they come out warm! Had a minor mess up when the put sauce on top of seafood omelette, but corrected it immediately, and it was so light and fluffy and so full of crabmeat and shrimp! Couldn’t ask for a better experience dining at this iconic place! Back to being my go-to spot!

    Our experience in the restaurant were very good. Food was delicious and served without a lengthy wait. However, in the music venue, there could be improvement. Two people serving drinks, one upstairs and one downstairs. They seemed swamped and one of our drinks wasn't delivered until I went downstairs to get it. We were told there was self-service water but the bottle was empty so we were quite thirsty through most of the entertainment. That was disappointing but I still love this venue. They need more help it seems.
