    We made reservations and were promptly seated. The restaurant smelled horrible. We still decided to stay - after waiting for 10-15 minutes for a server, we left. They were not that busy and there were 2 servers by us - nobody had the time to acknowledge our table, so we took our business elsewhere.

    Friday night - short staffed - took 45 minutes to get a drink. In a city of great food, I’m not sure how this place is even in business.

    The food was amazing (catfish, firecracker shrimp, jambalaya, and hush puppies) and the service was even better. I can’t recommend this place enough!

    We had a wonderful server that gave us the best NOLA hospitality! Fried Catfish PoBoy had fried catfish sticks on the PoBoy that were so fresh and delicious! Our favorites were the Creole Red Beans and Rice and the Gumbo YaYa! We would pass on the hurricanes as they weren’t the best, but definitely go for the food as it was all delicious! 🤤
