They work with a very nice array of family owned wineries that promote sustainable farming practices. Their selection runs the gamut, from domestic to international, from well-known grapes to lesser known varieties. I definitely give this business my highest recommendation.

I walked in and the lady just looked at me and didn't say anything - she didn't seem nice at all. I checked out one item and the guy that checked me out asked for my ID and said nevermind as I was looking for it. I told him I was 25 and he asked when I turned 25. I told him that today was my birthday and he said "oh I should've given you the birthday discount". I was like ummm ok? thanks. Paid full price and left. Probably won't go back, the staff rubbed me wrong and hocus pocus has a much larger selection.

We were coming down to Lake Charles for a friend's birthday. We were planning some drinking and…read moregambling...we ended up just gambling. But, we did want to have some drinks set up just in case. We were looking for some basic liquor, but we forgot in LA, everywhere sells liquor. So this place had mainly wine and higher end liquor. I was able to snag up a bottle of Hibiki Harmony for 60+ tax. It is currently sold out all over town in Houston. They were also very nice and sent us to the gas station down the road which had a wide variety of the basic stuff.

No one would ever guess, when passing this unassuming temporary building that just beyond those doors lie the sweet sweet nectar of the Gods. NO ONE. That's who. Because for reasons unbeknownst to me, you fail to put your best foot forward. My Mother: It's Hom-SI Me: Your right, It is homie. The selection is based more on personal taste than industry bests. You may not find any of Wine Spectator's top 100 (obviously Homie don't play that) but Homie's favorite spirits are always stocked shelf deep. Somehow Homie's illogical categorization makes finding an acceptable bottle of wine like finding a hidden treasure; ....much like finding the last bit of the best food item on your mom's thanksgiving menu waaaay in the back of the refrigerator (with someone else's name on the top in Sharpie marker). VICTORY. My Mother: No...its HOM-SI's the name of the place is Homsi's Me: Homie you're faithful, tried and true. Your commitment to providing this essential neighborhood service all day on Thanksgiving got many many people through this holiday w/ their not-so-loved ones (YOU know that gropey Uncle or people from the "weird" side of the family). My Mother: "I think you and Homie have gotten a little too familiar with one another." Me: (- _ -) Homie...haters gon' hate, but you're A-OK with me.

Plenty of parking and great, new facility. We missed the tour, buy I think it was $10 and includes tasting. We paid $5 for the tasting and at 10am we were the only ones at the distillery. We got to try all 7 rums. They are made on site and almost all their flavorings are local, e.g. Satsuma grown locally. The rums aren't super sweet like Bacardi and had some depth. I enjoyed their spiced rum, think less sweet Captain Morgan's. We bought a couple of bottles, about $18 each. The staff was really friendly and nice. They double-bubble wrapped our bottles for easy shipping in luggage. The bottles came in super cute bags that can double as gift bags. Nice bathrooms. They also bottle and sell a whiskey for another distillery. I think it was Kentucky Owl.

Ryan was THE best choice for the General Manager. He is doing an excellent job with his staff and the ambiance of the restaurant. Our server, Gage, was a prime example and reflection of the care going into this place. Gage was so sweet and took very good care of us. Now for the food. Everything was so flavorful and worth every penny. The kitchen staff knows what they're doing, and they are killing the game. We started off with the pork belly bites and the shrimp toast for appetizers. That spicy aioli mixed with the chili glaze on the pork belly was top tier! The shrimp toast was perfectly crispy and delicious. The entrees were just as much of a slam dunk as the appetizers. I had the beer braised beef short rib with the mashed potatoes. Talk about melt in your mouth. The short rib was so tender that I was able to pull every single bite off the bone with my fork using very little effort. It was MELT IN YOUR MOUTH TENDER! My husband had the Tasso brined double cut pork chop with collard greens. The Demi-glace was absolutely delicious and the greens were well seasoned. My father-in-law had the wedge salad that he asked to spruce up with a few extra dressings, and they had no qualms meeting his requests. We were too stuffed to try dessert, but we will absolutely be back to try it another time. The pricing was very fair for the quality of food and atmosphere. All of the staff were super kind. You can definitely tell they enjoy their job and take pride in what they do. We can't recommend the lakefront location enough. It's definitely going to become a top favorite that we'll continue to frequent.

Disappointed and didn't feel special. Tuna was cooked right but could use some extra seasoning. The burger was blah and expensive. Again needs seasoning or salt. The chicken tenders were tasteless. The crawfish queso and crab claws were both good. The grilled ceasar I heard was good but didn't try it. The brownie skillet was over cooked and hard. Needs more peanut butter. Pricey and bougie but would try other things.
