Enjoyed Chef Evelyn Rock's Soul Food Dinner on this visit. Moist, tender & flavorful smothered pork chops in onion gravy. Fried Red Fish could have used a little more spice, but did have just the right amount of crispiness. ALL vegetable sides for the table were absolutely delicious. Cornbread Lagniappe complimented the tender greens perfectly. German Chocolate cake & Banana Pudding were luscious. Would return for a Chef Rock dinner @ Davis Street anytime.

This restaurant is a treasure. We felt at home the moment we walked in. We were greeted by Chef Holley and seated very quickly. Our server,Jazz, was delightful as well as being well versed with the offerings and personal recommendations for our first visit. The food was incredible. Very much a southern, creole influence. Save room for the coconut cake, to die for. Kevin, the sommelier and beverage manager visited with us and explain the ideas and history behind the restaurant. It was such a pleasant evening. We will definitely be back.

Red Snapper was amazing along with the brussel sprouts, bread pudding, chargrilled oysters, and Thai shrimp. Drinks were strong but still tasted great. I was with a large group so the service took a little long but all the staff was attentive. Would definitely go again.

Terrible service . Didn’t see a waiter for over 20 minutes. Extremely slow service. They ran out of most of food entrees. Asked to see a manager and nobody ever came . Ruined my night

Great restaurant and food… only gave 4 stars for overall experience because it took long to receive food & drinks but I know it’s because it was Valentine’s Day and they were super busy… love it, would definitely try again

We had a great time. Great server (Jazz? she had heart earrings on) and great food and service. Everything was terrific. We used to frequent Mr. Holley's restaurants and got out of the habit during Covid. We're back. I assure you we will be back.
