Always a wonderful experience. Great food that is creative and beautifully curated. I had the lasagna this time and my husband had the short ribs. Both were excellent. My favorite restaurant in the area. Hands down.

The restaurant was filled to the brim on Mother’s Day but they were amply prepared with service staff. The service and food were excellent. One minor issue, my fried oyster appetizer was cold but was corrected by our server who immediately replaced if with a piping hot one.

Our reservations were for 8:30 and we arrived at 7:30 so that we could get drinks before dinner. We checked in with the hostess and let them know. They advised they we would probably be called a little earlier than our reservations. No worries. I went to the hostess at 8:25 and asked if our table was ready. They said “setting it now”. Ten minutes later when they didn’t get it I went back to them they said AGAIN “we are setting the table now.” We were not seated until 8:45 I was NOT happy!!!!

It is difficult to find just the right words to capture how wonderful this entire experience was. From start to finish, everything was perfect. The Creole Cobbler craft cocktail was a lovely surprise and an incredibly refreshing summer cocktail. Order one! And order the carpaccio with fried oysters appetizer too. Start there, or anywhere on the menu. Everything… and I mean EVERYTHING was exquisite. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants ever!!!

Food and ambience are always great- the manager/somellier is always welcoming. However, service was very slow, wine was spilled while being poured and no apologies or adjustments to check. Further, they add a 3% premium to check if you pay by credit card, which is ridiculous
