   The gnocchi that is served with the chicken artichoke entree was amazing. Even reheated the next day they were amazing. The food is very good, it’s a great place for a meal.

   First time dining with the family. Had several dishes that were reminiscent of Bayou. Glad to see Ricky and some of the staff that transferred over as well. Food and service were excellent.

   Great food and wonderful service! Unbelievably loud! Not a place for a first date or to have a conversation.

   Not inexpensive- but very tasty and great service. I really enjoyed my meal, but 1 large rice ball for $16 or $18.00- is a lot! Of course I could see the price and I still ordered it - and I did enjoy it.

   It’s always a pleasure to dine here. Food was delicious and the drinks were great. Service is excellent. Brian is a very good waiter. Everyone at the basement is very friendly. Would recommend to everyone.

   We had a 7 o’clock reservation. The hostess called in sick and someone who didn’t know any better,sat another couple before we arrived. We waited 50 minutes for a table.what I will tell you in their defense was although they screwed up they did buy us two drinks on the house, they did whatever they could to keep us comfortable while we were waiting. The food was good and we will go back.
