    Came for the AYCE to celebrate my husband’s birthday. We arrived early and let the host know that we were fine waiting for our reservation time. Staff was lovely and greeted us immediately, sat us before our reservation time and made sure to tell my husband happy birthday. They auto include a 20% gratuity/service charge which gets split by all the servers. I loved that. It promotes a great workplace of cohesive customer first teamwork and makes sure servers get sufficient tips. All the servers work really well together helping all tables, but our main server Adrian was phenomenal. Because of that, the 20% seems almost low because of the great service, so we chose to include an additional tip as well. On to the food, we ate so much and it was all delicious. I loved the smaller portions of additional items during the AYCE because not only did it help eliminate waste but it allowed us to try so many items off the menu. Gumbo, snow crab, shrimp and Australian king prawns, crawfish, mussels, ribeye, all fantastic. We chose different heats and flavor combos and enjoyed all of them, our least favorite being the pineapple chili one and our favorite being the medium and hot heat Oh Dang flavor. Can’t wait to go back.

    The team that worked there was awesome. We had great servers as well as the team that came around with the protein. In an entirely pleasant way, there were several people who were seeming to help the main waiter, bringing out drinks, etc. They were all great. The food of course was great. The cold bar as well as the meats spectacular. And wine that was recommend was tasty. Wonderful upscale evening.
