While the food and service were very good as usual, there was a little surprise on the bill. Although we may have missed the policy written somewhere on the menu, the gratuity of 20 % was added for the group of five guests last night. My understanding of being a big enough group for automatic gratuity was six or eight guests with other restaurants, so I was shocked when my husband told me about this charge this morning. If I had known about this charge when my husband got the bill, I would have clarified the restaurant policy with the manager, but apparently, my husband did not want to cause a scene in front of our guests. I would have appreciated it if the server had notified me of the charge in advance. Nonetheless, we had a great dinner!

I met a friend for our annual lunch reunion & it was Mardi Gras Tuesday! RT's was dressed to the 9s and customers & staff were all in a celebratory mood. Service was quick, but discreet ... we took our time chatting and looking at the menu. The food was so tasty, and portions just right! After the meal, we stepped into the bar area to admire the décor. They offered us colorful beads and had photo booth props to add to the fun! I am really looking forward to returning to try more of the menu & enjoy the lovely atmosphere.

We love this place, but had to wait 20 mins after our reservation on a recent Saturday night. Then, seated next to a very loud, raucous group. Loud! I guess Saturday night is bound to be busy, and what can you do about really loud customers? Food, service and value remain very good.

Food was not as good as my last visit. She-crab soup was far too salty. Crab and shrimp etouffe was just ‘alright.’ But the most disappointing experience was the inability to get the cocktails we want. For example in the past I was able to have a Negroni, but last night the server looked confused and shook her head no. What’s up with that?
