Our waitress wasn't great at acknowledging my friend. The drinks were great and when I wanted a more bitter expresso martini she was able to adapt. Overall, it was a great meal.

He made good wine suggestion & checked on us not not so much as to be intrusive. The only reason noise level was hi is a table if 6 next to us was LOUD. So loud in fact I couldn’t have a conversation with person next to me w/o cupping my ear. They were so inconsiderate. We always ask for a table against wall to Prevent this but this time to no avail. Not anything y’all could do

No two of us ordered the same entree so we had a good cross section of the dishes. My Martini was one of the best I have ever enjoyed and the charbroiled oysters were grand. However the best part of the evening was our server, Megan, who made sure every course was to our liking. She was always attentive but never overbearing. She was one of the best servers I have ever encountered. She needs to be considered for a management position. A totally GRAND evening.

If I could make one suggestion I would seat 2 tops and 4 tops away from the larger groups as this would help to mitigate the noise level for those hoping for a more low key setting. We look forward to dining there again.

I am not used to dining room televisions in a place of this caliber, but it added to the casual atmosphere. Otherwise, fine decor and even better food. A bargain. And a McClaren 720 in the lot to ogle on the way out.

I’ve dined there with a group of friends on several occasions, and we’ve always been seated in a back room with a lot of windows; a very nice setting. For this lunch, we were seated by the bar, near the front door, no ambiance at all...feels like a tight spot where you squeeze people in when you’re really busy...except it was 1:30 on a rainy Saturday, and they weren’t busy at all. Then we were given menus, and kind of forgotten about, until we finally stopped someone and asked if we could order. I normally never complain, but being that this was a place I’ve always had a good experience, it was my husband’s first visit, and it was my birthday, I was expecting it to be better.

Hostess escorted us to our table and we sat a few minutes before even menus were given and drink order taken. Noticed other tables were served bread and we were never served any? Waiter returned shortly with drinks and served our meals.

The atmosphere and food were very good. When we first sat down the music was somewhat loud and more suited to a bar party, but was soon lowered and music more attuned to fine dining played. We would recommend to friends.

Food is wonderful and they are flexible to customize if you need something different than what is on the menu. Service was also very good. I recommend getting reservations as they get booked up quickly.

Problems started with drinks that are now in smaller glasses and not remotely filled up. More on that later. Changed one item on pasta dish - use olive oil instead of butter and ended up with dry pasta dish with few items listed on menu. At end of meal we had to be embarrassed by manager proving that 2 different glasses hold same amount of liquid when that wasn’t the point= fill up high priced drink. Also ran out of fish special by 7:30. Sorry for bad review.

We had the Chicken Caper, the Taste of Louisiana, Bistro Street Noodles, Bone in Pork Chop and the Rib Eye. The bread, wine, drinks, etc...Everything was amazing. The service was impeccable, as always. Thank you, FMB for being our go-to, reliable, impressive, favorite restaurant. You NEVER disappoint.

We arrived on time and were seated at a wrap around bench seat in bar area afer getting settled someone came and said sorry this is for another reservation and asked us to move to the table next to it which was a high top table for 2. We moved and waitress came and took our drink order after getting our drinks she dissapears for aperiod of time as we finished our first drinks before she came back. Once she came back she took our drink order and food order. We orderded the char grilled oysters with the upcharge of the bacon and jalepeno. We got the oysters and at them and didnt realize they had crabmeat not what we ordered but they were so good we did not care. We told her about the mistake and she said she would take off the bill. We got the rest of our meal which was amazing. I give the food a 5 star. Not sure if we were supposed to get bread as we saw some tables with bread. I think opentable gets bad tables as mine was a hightop next to the bar where all the waiters cam to pick up their drinks so that was my negative along with my bill minus the upcharge but she added the crabmeat that we did not order. lesson learn read your receipt.
