    Where do I start. We were in town from California visiting family and we were recommended this spot by a family member! They did not disappoint! We got a little bit of everything on the menu. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive to everything we needed. I had the gumbo a d of boy was it tasty!

    Seafood Platter

    Really a good place if in the neighborhood. The seafood platter was well done and more then I could eat. And all came for a good price. Two appetizers and two entrées for less then $80. The service was a very nice lady and kept the table attendant to.

    Seafood salad (grilled) with aide baked potato and the absolute blandest blue cheese dressing ever. (But the salad was good)

    So apparently "Fine Dining" is defined by nice tablecloths. The food is good, the service is nice, atmosphere is okay - the only thing resembling "fine dining" is tablecloths (on some tables, not all - ours had a glass top with paper copies of the menu under the glass). But, the food is good - standard South Louisiana seafood. Lots of locals eating here. Fried shrimp, catfish, etoufee, boiled shrimp. The seafood salad (shrimp and crabmeat on a tossed salad) comes with cold boiled or grilled seafood. I went for grilled and it was pretty good. The blue cheese dressing was pretty bland - thick, creamy dressing with no chunks of blue cheese and only a hint of blue cheese flavor. The side order baked potato was good sized and baked well (all the way done). The grilled shrimp dinner with stuffed potato was also good. The potato was nice and cheesy, and the shrimp well seasoned and cooked just right (not rubbery and overdone). Service was friendly and attentive, the place was clean. Overall, a good meal if you are in the area and looking for standard Louisiana seafood offerings.

    Local town restaurant that offers a variety of seafood and non seafood items as well as home style cooked food. They do offer buffet service.

    Great place to stop in this small town. The drinks were great even if a little weak. The corn soup was delicious. Boudin balls seemed homemade and were probably the best part. They came with a honey mustard sauce. The red beans and rice is the cause for the 4 stars. There was a lot of rice and not much red beans. The beans were also not flavored as well as they could have been. The pork chops were thick and juicy and zero complaints on the shrimp. Do recommend.

    Stopped in after doing a few things in the area, and I am glad I did. Friendly employees, everything is clean inside. I ordered the crawfish etouffee and it was amazing. The Mississippi Mud Pie was a delight. Everything was so very lovely. The wait staff was very friendly. Plenty of parking.
