    Amazing food and atmosphere. From the gumbo to the brown butter bourbon bread pudding, we enjoyed every bite! The jazz trio authenticated the experience. Chef Eric brings the flavors and dishes from the Big Easy to NYC. Highly recommend!

    Went on Monday 2/10/2025 @ 2:30pm; it was only me and my 2 guests initially in the restaurant; then 2 ladies came in about an hour later. The music was nice and lively (not a live band) My only negative issue is that it was cold inside! I had to wear my coat and my scarf against my neck while eating. Food/drinks were good..

    I traveled from Chicago to NYC for work and enjoyed myself. Great atmosphere and even better gumbo. I was excited they had a version of Gumbo that didn’t have shellfish due to the fact that I’m allergic to seafood. I wouldn’t encourage everyone to go if they are in New York.
