    Thankful for so many great gluten free options. Fried green tomatoes were delicious as were the rest of the dishes we shared.

    Reviews were way better than the place deserved. Ok overall, but definitely not worth going back. Service was slow, drinks were watered down and food was blah

    So great - loved the environment and the historical background. Fried pickles and crawfish - AMAZING. Fried okra - Amazing. Fried green tomatoes- underwhelming. Everything else was so good and the service was OUTSTANDING!

    We loved this meal! SoCal visitors who enjoyed some local fare-- alligator bites were YUM! Shrimp fettuccine, jambalaya and rice and beans all hit the spot. Service was excellent and helped to make my birthday dinner memorable! Thank you!

    Just gooooo! Don’t eat prior to coming so you can try a lot of selections on the menu — the rum punch, redfish & pesto pasta, crawfish etoufee, pasta Evangeline, bananas foster bread pudding and praline cheesecake will surely make you want to slap yo mama! (I could not resist!) 😂
