Brian AtkinsJanuary 24, 2011Always ask about their specials if they don't offer them.... They are usually the best part of the menu! Also, make sure you save room for coconut Melvin cake!
Ai KApril 10, 2021Not bad but not memorable in my books. Dishes need a lot more flavor to claim they are Cajun. Service was good. Coconut cake was the highlight. I won't be back e rd
