- Diana MorrisJune 28, 2014Oh my word. Fried green tomatoes. Shrimp po'boy. Crawfish étouffée. Bread pudding. Treat yourself.
Donna McCune-ThomasJuly 20, 2021Jambalaya, red beans and rice and ernit burger fish are great small portions. Had to order 2 meals each for only two people to get full. Expensive for amount of food purchased.
Awesome southwest eggrolls and you gotta try try the fried green tomatoes!!! Best items on the menu for sure :)
Chow Down DetroitDecember 27, 2014Open very late. I saw them open at 3:40am with people hanging out.
Great lunch specials. Tuesdays are Hamburger Steak and Wednesdays are Chicken Fried Steak. You simply can't go wrong with this excellent food!
Andrew BartolottaMay 31, 2012You must try the pepper jelly dressing atop the scrumptious spinach salad.
Allison HolmesMarch 1, 2014No specials during Mardi Gras - portions are super small. Good food, but zero bang for your buck. Heading to McDonalds in a minute so I can finish filling my belly.
T Graham S. HowellMarch 1, 2014Has a free drink offer through Foursquare but they aren't honoring it right now.
Scott KarvelisAugust 18, 2011Don't be scared by the floor when you walk in. It's a peace symbol, not a swastika. If you are that offended it's your loss.
Hannah FaulknerMarch 1, 2014They aren't honoring their FOURSQUARE special during mardi gras, so that's pretty lame..
Keith CornellNovember 14, 2010Nice place just walking distance from our hotel. Sat outside, had fried shrimp. It was ok. Server was in a bad mood. Hate that.....
Danny GMay 11, 2014HORRIBLE - Sat outside after checking inside. Waited 10 min with no service - walked away. It wasn't even busy.
Ryan DahlstromApril 24, 2012Rude, rude, and more rude. Went mid-afternoon on Sunday and they were out of just about everything. Food we did order was awful. Steer clear!

"Fantastic beer selection. Always go for the local options. Awesome bar food, not ideal if you're looking for a sit-down kind of place. Friendly staff and really chill & fun atmosphere. Will be back"
