BBQ shrimp is sooo good. Save some of your table bread for dunking into the sauce!

They didn't had any vegetarian soup available. Without asking us,Jeremy our waiter, called the chef wish he came and prepared us the best vegetarian soup. What a service!!!! .

Great people watching. Ask for a table near the window looking out on Canal.

Chicken/sausage Gumbo & spinach salad were great. The salad is not very big tho, so no sharing. You'll be glad you got your own tho. Good prices too...

This place may look touristy but it's a must do! Get the crab cheesecake to start!

Good food (duck breast) and beautiful restaurant.

Not too impressed. The crab meat cheesecake didn't meet expectations and the bread pudding was a complete flop. The banana foster was pretty yummy. Pork shank was massive and decent.

If you are a small dining party, decline the table and go for kitchen-side bar dining.

The quiche is awesome. Seafood gumbo..yum! Blue cheese salad is good. Be careful with the bleu cheese. Its very cheesy.

Chefs did a great job-- food was excellent! Service was lacking. Asked for a happy hour drink. Was given one with rum that's not part of that special. Rude on the server's part.
