★★★☆☆ 3.0 Kris T. · Feb 2026

We stopped in for a quick dinner a couple of nights ago; first visit. Overall, the restaurant was okay. I had the Hot Cat Stack, which I mostly enjoyed, though the catfish was a bit overcooked and under-seasoned. The cornbread with chive and honey butter was fantastic and really saved the dish for me. We also tried the shrimp and grits appetizer. The shrimp weren’t de-veined and the grits lacked flavor, needed something. There was no sauce or gravy, which felt unusual; bacon was a plus. The restaurant has a Creole-inspired vibe, but the menu felt more “inspired by” than truly Creole along with the taste. Prices were a little on the high side for what was served, but not unreasonable. The only odd thing was being charged $1 for bread — not a big deal, but it would’ve been nice if the server

Everything was Outstanding! Every request was met with a smile. Both Chefs visited our table twice to make sure we were happy. This was our first visit and we were thoroughly impressed. The food was amazing. We went for the crab soup and let's say we will be back. The shrimp and grits didn't disappoint. I can't wait to try the crab cakes. Oh I forgot to mention our server Jade and bartender Haley were AMAZING! Go early to beat the crowd!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Brian Marcos · Feb 2026

I would really love to give this place a 5 star but two things stood out. One they charge for the bread, it's only $1 but they don't tell you. I don't care about a dollar, but I don't like it being slipped in. Two, the ribs were good, but not much meat, way too much mashed potatoes. Service was excellent, very kind and helpful but not overbearing at all. ‐------------ Was contacted by owner, stated the price of bread is clearly on the front of their menu for the past 15 years... asked the wife about it, she stated she didn't see it either, if it was, it's easily missed. Looked back at previous menu posts, it's located at the bottom, can be easily missed, Seeing even older posts, don't see it at all. I would have changed my review, but when you call at 7:07 am on a Sunday mornin

Ohhh myyy, this place has been in our neighborhood for 31 years and today we came in a little close to closing but they still served us. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Geneive (Sorry if we misspelled your name) for the amazing food and Hailey for being an amazing server.

★★★★★ 5.0 Leslie Gauntlett · May 2025

Came here for a graduation dinner. And it was DELICIOUS! We all ate well and left happy! I had the Cat Stack I HIGHLY recommend yall have it. The table ordered ribs, Nola chicken, salmon, jambalaya. Everyone finished their meal. Also ordered both items available for dessert (chocolate cake and blueberry bread pudding… something like that) Additionally, we were actually able to get our reservations moved from 6:15 to 5:00 and that’s accommodating 8 people. Truly a gem!
