Great experience, love this place, definitely recommend. Our server was so professional. She said it was her first time serving tables by herself. But she give excellent service. And the young men were so attentive to our table as well, removing dishes etc even though they weren’t assigned to our table . Will definitely be returning.

    This was our 4th or 5th time dining here. Always a pleasure. We come for the great jazz and are always pleased with the food. Menu has evolved over the past 2 years and continues to be tasty. Love the fact that happy hour is long and includes mixed drinks as well as beer and wine. The jambalaya is amazing and you can never go wrong with the southern fried chicken - moist and tender and just the right amount of spices. Quantities are filling and we always end up taking home leftovers. Look forward to our next visit!
