Our server Hayden was awesome per usual and the Manager runs a great business. He checked on us and asked for feedback on our dishes. If I owned a restaurant I would want a staff just like this who actually love their job. The food is always good the gumbo is my new favorite. Lemon drops are absolutely delicious.

Food and service were pretty good, a little slow due to the high volume associated with graduation weekend. Lobster roll was not the traditional format, more of a lobster salad sandwich than a lobster roll.
