I love fine dining and do not mind paying for quality food, but this was a No. the prices were outrageous and the food was lackluster. I had the fish and shrimp pasta and the fish was too salty to eat and only 3 shrimp in the entire meal. Loved the ambience and vibe, but it was pretty dead for a Saturday night. No live music or entertainment.

We went here for my boyfriend’s birthday and had a great time. The atmosphere was a vibe and the food was soooo good. I had the stuffed salmon and he had the ribeye. Both dishes, along with the side(greens, yams, dirty rice) we had were absolutely delicious. Our waiter Deja was so sweet. And we will definitely be back soon.

It’s a beautiful in the inside and excellent service, however, they need a new cook. I had shrimp and grits and the shrimp were so small. I thought it was crawfish but even if it was a crawfish, it would’ve been a small one. My husband have fried chicken and waffles. The first batch of chicken was burned. I really cannot believe that they put a chicken burnt like that on the plate and brought it to us. I requested a different piece of chicken and that one was bloody in the inside. The food is very overpriced. The drinks were good but still on the high end and there is a 10% service charge on all orders.

I live in Richardson and like to support local businesses so I thought I had the perfect opportunity by going out with my sweetheart and asking two other couples to join, made reservations for seven I had been there to look in prior so I had no problem finding it, mind you this is billed as fine dining, however my friends had to be walked in by phone because there is no signage. I had looked at the menu and knew what I wanted, the drinks are good but at a premium price, we each got a starter which came out promptly I got crab cakes that were the consistency of salmon croquettes no lump meat to be seen.when we were seated there was one other party four in the restaurant, so when our orders were taken we we’re hoping for a quick turnaround, our food came out piece meal, and how it was asked to be prepared was not observed, a steak was returned to be cooked more, and the easiest dish in my eyes came last, a pasta dish, all the food was heavily salted, most went uneaten. Our server asked about our experience and was told and her remedy was desert on her, but who wants the possibility of more disappointing after so much disappointment already. At this point the manager on duty was called upon and I’m sure I was heard because I gave this honest opinion, but I don’t think I was listened to, I will never be back and this is the worst experience of fine dining.

Fine dining is not accurate. Fine dining does not have a limited menu. Nor does it not serve all the items being advertised. They had no oxtail avail or fried shrimp even though it's on the listed sunday menu. Also their website does not tell you they dont serve regular dinner items on sundays. You can only order from brunch menu which is very very limited and overpriced items that I can get anywhere else cheaper . We had server ask if we can get any dinner items as we had just seen them seve the stuffed salmon and shrimp to other patrons. But was told no. Well We left not worth the drive, the price nor is it fine dining

There is no signage outside this restaurant, so it is difficult to find. You have to look at the windows. We walked in at 6:30pm on a Friday night and there was no one there. We almost left right then. As you walk into the first door, there was a strange odor. We had a very nice waitress. This is a New Orleans style restaurant, but they didn't have any Jambalaya or Red beans and rice. They are posing as a more expensive restaurant with expensive prices, but the food was below par. It was my husband's birthday and he picked this restaurant. He ordered a steak and sweet yams. The yams came out of a can. The steak was thick, he ordered medium rare, and it was more rare than medium rare. I was skeptical of this restaurant and ordered the penne pasta with chicken, sausage and shrimp. The pasta was edible but the proteins were overcooked. The chicken was dry and the shrimp were chewy, I ate the pasta and some of the proteins. Everything was ala carte. Do not waste your time with this restaurant. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere.

We had reservations today at 230p. We arrived around 235p because the restaurant was hard to find. Once inside we were promptly seated. We ordered our food around 245p, by 335p we still hadn’t gotten anything but the lemonade we ordered so we just made the decision to leave.

Ordered the $50 buffet but they kept running out of food. I went back to the buffet bar twice but there wasn’t any food. My kid and husband’s appetizers and food came out 30 minutes late. Entree’s came out before their appetizers. Overall, the food was fair, but overpriced whenever considering the lack of food. Miriam, our waitress was excellent.
