    The food was excellent. I enjoyed a juicy and flavorful tenderloin. My wife enjoyed the fish. Both were prepared to near perfection. Dessert was delicious. My pecan tart was flavorful. My wife loved the flaming bread pudding. Bar service was spotty at first and the had run out of a few dishes, but overall it was a good experience.

    Excellent Service which is lacking in so many restaurants these days The Scallops with mushroom risotto was good but not worth the price for the size and number of scallops. The Gumbo is packed with chicken, sausage and rice. Tasty but a bit too heavy The Oyster Trio was good but next time would not choose it. Just garlic butter would be tastier Very good variety of menu selections and prices. Will definitely return to try some of the other offerings

    At in main inside dining area, very nice and would be a great date night location. Saturday lunch special was 99 cent cocktails (4 options limit of 3 per person). Deviled eggs appetizer was wonderful. Fries green tomato with crab meat was also wonderful.

    This is the nicest restaurant on the southeast side of town. Awesome food, service and atmosphere right on the water. The boudain stuffed pork chop is the best ever. Don't miss this spot. Beautiful restaurant.
