We came for the Sunday Jazz Brunch, and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere was fantastic, the bottomless mimosas kept flowing, and the beignets were absolutely delicious. I ordered the Pork Chop Slinger, and finding out the pork chop came from Schubert's in Millstadt, IL was an unexpected bonus that made the meal even better. Our server was wonderful--friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The rest of the staff was just as welcoming and helpful. I also can't say enough about the jazz band. The music selection was excellent and created the perfect brunch atmosphere. If you're looking for a great brunch with amazing food, outstanding service, and live music, I highly recommend giving this place a try!

I came with a party of 9 and made a reservation a few hours before. We arrived before 8 pm, which was before the DJ started playing. Although we were seated in the front, the music wasn't too loud once the DJ started playing. He had a nice mix of 2000s R&B, local artists, and some of today's hits. People occasionally line danced, which created a nice vibe. The food, marketed as tapas, was in pretty large portions that seemed to be better suited as individual meals. Everyone in my party who ordered food thoroughly enjoyed their orders, which included shrimp with Gouda grits, cornbread, macaroni & cheese, truffle fries, and chicken and waffles. Everyone also loved their cocktails. I had the Southside Shawty (vanilla vodka, elderflower liqueur, pineapple, sugar), which was perfectly balanced and not too sweet. Our server seemed a bit unenthused, and her attitude was a bit of a damper, but all in all, we enjoyed our experience and I recommend this establishment.

The customer service was wonderful. Everyone was wonderful. Even to to teaching of someone new was done perfectly. Everyone was very helpful. The food is delicious. The seasoning is excellent. I got the lamb chops, eggs, and southern potatoes. Let me tell you i was a big back. The seasoning on the lamb was very good. I evev had to nibble on the way. The southern potatoes were good and eggs were very good. I even tried a fried wing. It was absolutely amazing. The seasoning was perfect If you haven't tried them it's a must!

I had mixed feelings about our visit to Elicious. We were told the wait for a table would be about…read more15 minutes, but it ended up being closer to an hour. Once we were seated, it took another 10 minutes before our waitress came to the table, and about 40 more minutes before our food arrived. As for the food, there were definitely some highs and lows. The pancakes were outstanding--light, fluffy, and probably the best thing I had. My dad ordered the seafood omelet, and it looked amazing. He said it tasted just as good as it looked. On the other hand, the grits lacked seasoning, and the salmon croquettes could definitely use more flavor. I also ordered scrambled eggs with cheese, expecting the cheese to be mixed throughout the eggs, but instead it was simply a slice of cheese placed on top and partially melted. The staff was friendly and courteous throughout our visit, which I appreciated. However, as a culinary school graduate, I couldn't help but notice that the front-of-house operations seemed a bit disorganized. Better communication and more efficient service would make a significant difference to the overall dining experience. Overall, it was a mixed experience for our table of four. There were some dishes we really enjoyed and others that fell short. I'm on the fence about returning, but I haven't completely ruled it out. Hopefully they'll improve the timing and organization because the potential is definitely there.

Your favorite neighborhood bar!…read more My friends and I come here so often the whole staff knows us--it's truly our go-to spot. This place is everything you want in a neighborhood bar: consistently great service, delicious food, and a guaranteed good time. My absolute favorite is their fried wontons of the week--always creative and packed with flavor. Their Buffalo wontons are a staple and seriously addictive. If you're with a group, the pizza is solid for sharing and always hits the spot. The food comes out hot, fast, and reliably good every single time. The staff is incredibly kind and attentive, even when it's packed. Whether you're in the mood for darts, a few games, or just relaxing on the spacious outdoor patio, this spot delivers every time. A true local gem!

It's the rare occasion when I get to visit a restaurant that was featured on the TV show "Diners,…read moreDrive-ins and Dives," and it's a true privilege. I don't take it lightly. I spent a lot of time preparing. My mom even made me a special outfit. Remember, in the movie Goodfellas, when Joe Pesci thought he was about to become a made guy? It was kind of like that. Fortunately, I wasn't led into an empty room where I was promptly shot in the back of the head. (Whew!) I was conscious of the potential for violence at Hwy 61 Roadhouse, because its name--and the overall vibe--calls to mind the classic Patrick Swayze movie from the 1980s, which was in fact set in Missouri. I was ready to punch my way out of there, if necessary. The crowd here skews older, and it occurred to me that I may have been able to take out quite a few of them on my own. There was live music, and the band called to mind something you might see in a circa-'97 Christopher Guest movie, or Marty and Bobbi Culp. It gets loud, to the point where you can't hear what the person across the table from you is saying. You might consider bringing a date here, if you'd prefer not having a conversation. A guy from my running group loves this place and spoke highly of the BBQ Spaghetti. Normally, I wouldn't eat anything like that, but this guy seems like he might know ball when it comes to delicious restaurant meals, if you catch my drift. Turns out, he wasn't wrong. It wasn't just good, this might be the way to eat pulled pork. I'd make it at home, except that store-bought barbecue sauce is disgustingly sweet and processed-tasting, and it wouldn't be worth trying to make my own. I toyed with the idea of getting a burger, which is a safe go-to in restaurants in areas where the spice level is often inquired about, but I've eaten so many of them lately. Then I saw that they carry a Shrimp Po Boy. It seemed like the perfect choice. Shrimp Po Boys are never not good, even the one they used to carry at Popeyes during Lent back in the pre-chicken sandwich era, and this place supposedly specializes in Cajun food. It didn't disappoint... for the most part. It was a bit bread-forward for my liking. Some places hollow out the bread a little bit, to make room for the fillings. Hwy 61 doesn't, and they use a weirdly large roll. I love bread, so this wouldn't necessarily be an issue, but there was nothing particularly special about this bread. They load you up on shrimp, which are fried hard, like chicken wings from a hood Chinese place. It makes for a satisfying crunch. The lettuce and tomatoes provided a fresh, healthy-seeming contrast, and the remoulade is just spicy enough to keep things interesting. I'm definitely curious to try some of the other menu items, including some of the more authentic Cajun selections--the etouffees, gumbos and what have you. If only I could get them to bring me a sampling of everything, "on the arm." I'd show up in backwards sunglasses and tell them I'm there filming a TV show, but alas, they've already been featured on a TV show, and I wouldn't want to run the risk of having to actually fight someone.
