Han was our server and he was awesome. He answered all of our questions with great knowledge and ensured that our experience was pleasurable. Appetizer: gulf point and NOLA oysters were great. Drinks: tequila mockingbird and blueberry bliss. Mmmmm mmmmm good Entrees: Husband had the jambalaya, tater tots (I couldn't leave his alone) and Me: I had the crabcakes, but unfortunately the consistency of the crab was more like a salmon patty. Han ensured that I left pleased with my experience and replaced it with the catfish and I was definitely pleased. The manager even came out to understand why I didn't enjoy the crabcakes. I appreciate that and it's a sign of excellent customer service. Dessert: Red Velvet cake. ???? We will be visiting again...

Food was very delicious. I ordered the jambalaya, the rice came out a little hard, I told my server and he made sure to get that corrected very fast! Overall great service and good food

the restaurant was dimly lit and I guess that was good to preserve energy but my eyes are seasoned and need a little bit more light inside so I decided to go sit on the patio out back. Great choice. So about the cuisine: Maybe it was the region they purchased these oysters from but they seem more sandy/grittier than usual to me. Not all of them because I didn't send any back lol. I did enjoy the majority them. I ordered 1/2 Rockefeller oysters and a half of garlic.. something. The lobster bisque was absolutely delicious. The perfect consistency, color, smell and taste. I thoroughly enjoyed that treat! I was famished that day so I ordered the catfish nuggets too.???? They were not nuggets they were thick pieces of filleted catfish cut in half. This place could have easily shared by two. They were palatable but I didn't care for the flavor. It tastes a little fishy to me. Not the breading but the meat. Sometimes the biggest catfish is not the best as far as catfish goes. My waitress
