What can I say that hasn’t already been said? This place is ????????????. Family and I loved it. Everything was great. Ambiance, value, food quality and service. Shrimp and grits are definitely as described- to die for. ???? blackened cat fish was amazing as well. Daughter had the soft shelled crab with red beans and rice which were good too. We had to finish it off with the beignets ( ben-yays) which were warm, airy and delicious. Do yourself a favor and give this place a try. To the owners and staff, please don’t change a thing. Can’t wait to go back and try other items on the menu. Thank you
This sister location to one of the best gems San Diego has to offer is a gift from that, that is holy. If you've ever had the pleasure of going to New Orleans and feasted on the flavors difficult to duplicate, this place will spark all the proper synapses to transport you back to that specific time and place, even if it's for a brief moment. The smell will linger and goosebumps will be goosed. I do not know what dish is not perfect because it has yet to be found. My favorite has to be The Taste of New Orleans, with the blackened catfish. The seduction of overflowing flavor is simply too hard to resist. Louisiana Chicken is a dish meticulously crafted by Angels themselves. With every bite you can hear their harps play. If dishes are a little too heavenly, and you like to add some heat, I suggest a couple drops of their black widow sauce. You're welcome. And all at an affordable price in comparison. It's impossible, but true. It's true, but unbelievable. It's unbelievable, but undeniable
Small place you should not skip if in SD. Great New Orleans fish & chips. Red beans and rice, gumbo, bisque, Cesar salad, all flavorful!
