The truth is, you don't become a Louisiana favorite just by putting the word "authentic" on your sign. When you've served Cajun meals as long as we have, you learn the difference between real food and a bland imitation, and our guests know it too. Grilled, fried or on ice-there's time cooked into every dish and time spent on every home cooked recipe, so that every aroma, every bite, every sip and every gathering is memorable. We've spent more than 80 years creating a recipe for something much greater than a place for a lunch break or night out. It's a place to share (or keep the whole plate to yourself), a place where you always have a seat ready at the table and a place where you're always part of the family.

Be real. Eat good. It is all about being true to who you are: sharing with friends and family and enjoying each other's company over a good meal. The ingredients are always fresh and that is the cornerstone of our farm-to-table approach. It's talking about dinner when you're having lunch. Have you got some positive energy to share? Or maybe your grandmother's recipe for cobbler? Leave here and create some more good in your world. We're all a part of it.

I had the special last night, steak and seafood. (was AMAZING). We usually do not go during the weekday, but we love to hear Kaleb play. We love how the staff treat us like family. If you are looking for a spot for date night this is the perfect place. We never feel rushed to have to eat and pay our bill. Perfect spot to eat, relax, have a few drinks and listen to great entertainment.
