    We had several issues with our food coming out cold. Some of the items didn’t taste great either. Steaks were good as well as the Jambalaya. Onion soup was a disaster. Prime rib was a generous portion but just didn’t taste that great. Service was decent. I love their sister restaurant Ela’s a lot more. We’ve never had a bad meal there.

    Never been there and I thought the experience was excellent. Actually, a great space, good menu and wine list. Our friend didn’t like the salmon, but she asked for well done. Anyway, we go out quite a bit and my only surprise was that there weren’t that many people.

    Host was wonderful very personable. Waitress had a mug on when she approached the table. Appeared to be angry. She took our order which had some changes (omelets). One order came out completely wrong. Took awhile to “redo”.. we basically dined separately. Waitress was NOT very friendly.. seemed even more angry.. manager was apologetic and tried to make us comfortable. Mistakes are made and we understand that. Overall not a great experience. Atmosphere was nice.

    We had a wonderful dinner and our server. Tash, was personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. She is an asset to your organization. She helped us when my leftovers steak was accidentally discarded. She asked the chef to prepare another steak for me. This was above and beyond our expectations. It was a great evening

    Diedre always provides great service, which is why we come back. However, the food took unusually long last night and I didn't see much, if any, shrimp in my Jambalaya. Going to chalk this one up to an off night by the kitchen. Unrelated to food and service, issues in the men's bathroom still not addressed after over a year.
