    On a cold winters night in the big easy, the warm bright flavors of this creole Italian destination were a worth the trip. The Caesar salad is quite unique with a spicy chili oil. The chicken parm is a huge platter served in deep red gravy with fresh made spaghetti. The tiramisu for two was with the trip itself. The bitter sweet chocolate dusting balanced the richness of the dish. Dominque was a very professional waiter. Her warm smile was the highlight of the evening

    Jack was an incredible server! I am a New Orleans native visiting the northshore. Atmosphere was on point. Food incredible. But the star of the show was Liam our back waiter! Promote this man immediately, his charisma and ability to deliver his own amazing personality to everyone at the table was impeccable. 10/10 would recommend.

    This was our first visit. The overall experience was good but was disappointed that the hostess counted locate our reservation. After a couple of minutes and several questions, she did seat us anyway. Our server was attentive and friendly. The food was great. The salad dressing was a little on the tart side but that is simply personal taste. The entrees were very flavorful, prepared as ordered and served promptly. Dining room noice level was low, even as the room filled. Overall, will return and recommend to others.
