We got into town late and this was the nearest place that sold food & was still open. Imagine our pleasant surprise that the food was phenomenal and the service was outstanding! Would highly recommend ????????????

Delicious brunch and nice jazz music on a Sunday. The biscuits are interesting, heavy and made in a large pan, but rich and tasty. Shrimp was cooked well and the sauces were tasty, but maybe a bit too salty. Still great overall.

Kimberly N.

What a great find. Very cute bar. Adam's piano skills are excellent. Food was delicious. I got boudin meatballs and potato salad. Definitely divine. Be careful with the ghost pepper burger and wings...took out 2 spice savvy adults!
