This restaurant has quite a selection of various cuisines: Latin, sushi and Mediterranean. I know... an odd mix but they pull it off. We were drawn to their Latin entrees: trio appetizer with fabulous guacamole, queso dip (made in-house, and we don't really like queso dip but loved this dip) and salsa verde. Even the chips were fabulous on their own. 3-6 pm is happy hour with $4 off appetizers. A deal! We shared chicken enchiladas and a firecracker shrimp taco. All excellent. Fresh ingredients and flavorful. The black beans were excellent. We wanted to linger and watch a World Cup game so we ordered a slice of carrot cake. It was icing-heavy yet was also not too sweet. The candied pecans were a nice touch. We would definitely return. Tab before tip was $53 and we were very full.

The swordfish was out of this world- tender, succulent, & well spiced. Even the saffron rice it was served upon was lovely. Hubby enjoyed the cracker crusted app pizza, as well. The wagyu burger was quite possibly the best burger I have ever enjoyed. Even the gluten free bun was, (dare I say), a stand out. Hubby's wagyu was served on a "normal" bun which he said was outstanding as well. It is called a Grown up Happy Meal. Finally, the truffle fries were prepared in what appeared to be in the classical, French way, that is, like pomme frites. The only down side to these fries was that I may not ever be able to go back to normal fries. Yes, that good. And served with aioli- my favorite. This dining experience was fantastic. Great friendly guests, too!

She made sure that she double checked with me on certain items to ensure that I received exactly what I wanted. The drinks were delicious & refreshing! Absolutely loved the green tea shots. I ordered the lamb chops, medium. They were very juicy and tender. However, they did need just a little bit more seasoning. Overall, delicious meal. I definitely will go back.

It feels like the kind of place that has something for everybody--drinks, food, darts, a little arcade area, and that friendly local-bar vibe where you could easily hang out for a few hours. I only stopped in on a Tuesday to use the ATM, so I haven't had a chance to try the food or drinks yet, but just based on the atmosphere, I'm actually excited to come back and give the place a proper visit. My only complaint was the smell. There was definitely an odd sewage/urine-type smell in parts of the place, and after seeing other reviews mention it, I understand what people are talking about. It wasn't enough to make me dislike the place, but it was noticeable. Without that issue, just based on my first impression, I probably would have given it five stars instead of four. Overall, really cool neighborhood-bar atmosphere and definitely a place I want to come back to. I'll update my review once I've actually had the food and drinks.

One area I believe they could improve is the quality of the food. I recently visited this restaurant with my family, and I'm sharing this review in hopes that it can genuinely help them. I truly want to see their business succeed, and I think there are a few changes that could make a big difference. I ordered the chicken pita, and personally, I felt that the chicken could be improved. The texture made me wonder if it had been microwaved, and I think using a better-quality, fresher chicken would really elevate the dish. The fries, however, were good! I also had a cup of coffee, and I think they could definitely use a better-quality coffee. (I know...who gets coffee and a chicken pita? I didn't know what I wanted, but coffee sounded good!) I didn't try their breakfast, so I can't speak to that, although I've heard good things about it from the folks who sat behind me. My review is based solely on the chicken pita and coffee that I had, as well as the Reuben that one of my family members ordered. Personally, I don't think I would go back again based on this experience, but I truly hope they consider making some changes to the food quality, especially the chicken. The staff and service were wonderful, and I'm sharing this feedback because I genuinely hope the business succeeds!

We were in the mood for salads so we ordered a carry out of Greek salad & blackened Caesar. I ordered my Greek minus onions with extra feta. I was excited because the menu said creamy Greek dressing. First, my salad had onions. I can't eat them and having to pick them off is a pain. The cream Greek dressing was super thick and questionable based on appearance... I gave it a try, but it was quite odd. It tasted like a lot of mayo base and a tiny bit of Greek dressing. Quite a disappointment! The salad had plenty of veggies and my husband enjoyed his. I'll go somewhere else next time I'm craving a Greek salad.

Tons of TVs, but still clean and not grimy at all. Even the bathrooms were super clean, which I always notice. The food is good and the portions are huge. Everything leans a little pricey, even the kids meals, but you are absolutely getting your money's worth. The adult meals came with a straight up mountain of tots. I'm not exaggerating. Like... a pile. My son got the cheeseburger off the kids menu and it was honestly big for a kids meal. He was pumped. And $2 for a 22oz Coors Light all day? That's a win. Service has always been fine for us. Lots of younger girls working as waitresses and we've never had anyone rude or inattentive. Nothing over the top, just consistent and friendly. There are random pinball machines and games in the back which feels kind of unexpected but fun. It's a great spot to watch a game, bring the kids, or just hang out. Just know your bill might be a little higher than you expect, but you won't leave hungry that's for sure.

My husband and I were greeted promptly at around 6:00 on a Friday night in July and were able to be seated immediately, inside, upstairs. It was cool and open with a nice large TV for viewing games... more a bar feel than downstairs or out on the enclosed patio. Our server, Courtney, was outgoing and helpful. Her description of the dishes for our experiences. We ordered a bowl of clam chowder for starters. It was hot and creamy but not too thick. Very tasty. We shared a half of two different sandwiches: turkey burger and fried chicken with bang bang sauce. I had coleslaw as the side and my husband ordered a baked potato. Nice to have choices other than fries. We both really loved our sandwiches. The turkey burger is made in-house with their own added ingredients. It was flavorful and actually tasted like a mix between turkey and a garden burger. My husband said it's the best he's never had. We also loved the chicken sandwich. Perfectly crispy and tangy. Our neighbors saw our dish and regretted not ordering it themselves. Our tab came to $48 without any drinks. A deal for a nice meal. And we were stiffed. Could have easily shared one sandwich and been very satisfied. The vibe in the enclosed, second floor patio was very festive and looked fun. We enjoyed having choices between fine dining, bar casual and outdoor festive. Will definitely return.

Our family ordered a little bit of everything and had mostly no complaints. To start i got one of their seasonal cocktails with cranberry and vodka. It was so strong i couldn't even taste the cranberry and could barely drink it. For entree i got the reuben and fries. I wasn't very hungry and still ended up eating it all! It was a pretty average reuben but i felt like the portions were pretty small especially the fries. One weird thing is that someone ordered a salad and asked for thousand island dressing that came on my reuben and they wouldn't let them order it! They said it wasn't an option which i thought it was weird being that it's on their menu elsewhere. Overall this place has pretty solid food. Some of my family loved it but i thought it was just average. I could see this place being packed in the summer time with it being right in the downtown area.

What a great way to celebrate my 64th birthday. Gumbo's reminded me why I love southern cuisine so much. We don't have much of that 'round these parts, but it's always nice to get a reminder. I've always loved the hush puppies here. An appetizer order of 8 puppies costs $5. It's happy hour, so all appetizers are 30% off. I ordered 2, and we finished them off before we left. They are formed out of flour, cornmeal, and buttermilk, then deep-fried. These are not the least bit greasy, and dang I want to have some more now. If a restaurant serves a shrimp poboy and I don't like it, we cannot be friends. Fortunately, this is an amazing shrimp poboy. The shrimp are meaty, and fried to crispy perfection. As with the hush puppies, there is not the slightest feeling of greasiness. I never appreciated before how great this chewy New Orleans style French bread is. It's not often that I think about how good the bread is when I'm eating a sandwich. My daughter loved the chicken fingers, which look nothing like fingers. They are the shape and size of a chicken wing, which is pretty cool. As with all dishes, it includes a generous helping of fries that taste like they were freshly cut from a potato, and not defrosted from a bag in a freezer. I will have to come back for the dessert. If I'm going to ruin a diet, I'll do it with pecan pie and pralines. Totally worth it. Our server was also the bartender. I think she also had to go into the kitchen to help prepare sides and plates. Despite that, the service was excellent. And, through it all, she kept her cool, despite the fact that it seemed like she hardly stopped moving. She kept everything running smoothly. And, I would be remiss if I didn't mention how my heart skipped a beat when I walked into the main dining area. I've only been to New Orleans once, 10 years ago, but seeing that transported me back. The food reminded me that I didn't have to book a plane there any time soon. I can take a trip to The Big Easy right here.
