    Busy and a little noisy on a Tuesday night, but the food makes it worth a visit. Ordered a salad, the Duck enchilada appetizer( my favorite), fried oysters and the Tenderloin entrees. Loved the flavors of the duck enchilada and the hint of citrus on the oysters. Key lime pie for dessert was a nice ending to a great meal. Excellent service staff and definitely suggest making reservations in advance.
