My friend had pizza which she said was wonderful. I got the lemon piccata pasta, which sounded great but was just okay. I decided to add shrimp which, for a supposed Cajun place, were a huge disappointment. I asked for blackened and received tiny, semi grilled pathetic shrimp. I would have appreciated fewer, larger ones with some flavor. Service was wonderful. I’ll go back but will stick with the pizza.Is this helpful?

We usually enjoy the food, service and experience but this time was different. We arrived to find that we were seated next to a 20 person table that was filled with extremely loud and rude people. Several of them were standing right next to our table for an extended time talking loudly and asking questions about our food. Children were allowed to run around screaming loudly. Parents were oblivious. The staff did nothing to control the mayhem. We had requested a booth that was located away from the chaos but we were told that it was reserved. Well we had reservations too and we were there. There remained open tables throughout our dinner. Service was slow. Food was good but the experience ruined it.Is this helpful?

The Hot Brown has stringy cheese and sour dough bread base. The cheese was not a creamy cheese and difficult to swallow. The bread was not toasted and soggy. Change the cheese and toast the bread. The server was terrific. He did a great job. He returned often to make sure we were served. His name is Drew.Is this helpful?
