    Came here for a date night with my partner. We’ve always wanted to try it as my partner is a really big fan of Cajun cuisine and finally had the opportunity. Everything was great, our drinks were delicious the starters were perfect introduction into the food and our entrees couldn’t be better. We enjoyed the fried oysters and coquettes. Then the fried catfish and a seasonal special, and finally we couldn’t decide on the banana pudding or beignets so we got them both! Will definitely be back as dinner for two here was delicious and a good value.
