First time here, but I can already see this becoming one of my go-to spots in South Lake Tahoe…read more We enjoyed every dish we ordered. Everything came out perfectly timed, and more importantly, everything tasted great. It's always nice when a restaurant gets both the food and the pacing right. Now, let's be honest--it's not NOLA. But if you're looking for a little taste of that New Orleans vibe without leaving South Lake Tahoe, this is about as close as you're going to get. Definitely looking forward to coming back! BB

Was at the lake for a party, and Toulouse looked like a really good bet for dinner. And yeah, it…read morewas. This place is great for hosting big groups (so long as you are sure to make a reservation), but also perfectly fine for small gatherings, too. Plus, if the weather is nice, do take advantage of sitting out on the patio. And we were met with an extremely friendly and attentive staff, who were very on the ball with everything. The food seems to have a cajun/southern twist to it. And we all found our fare quite delicious. For myself, I wound up with some roasted brussels sprouts, and a plate of the crawfish and sausage poutine. One of my friends also had good stuff to say about the burger they got as well. And the entire meal was accompanied by good drinks from their wine and cocktail list, with the Pims Cup being delightful on this warm evening. As said above, the outside ambiance is great, though can get a little loud since you are next to a swimming pool for one hotel. There is also basically no parking, so you may have to park somewhere nearby and walk over, which is easy enough. And prices are pretty decent for what you're getting, and considering this is a touristy area. So yeah, all told, a very solid and enjoyable spot for dinner. Keep them in mind if you are in South Shore.

This place is good for families as dishes ars big and carefully prepared. I would wish to give them a 4 or 5 star but the problem I had is they have too extensive of a menu that dishes are either good or just a miss. The xo scallops are flavored right but are not seared and dont have the proper texture for a cooked scallop. The salted fish rice was ok but it wasnt so salty. The pluses are the cup sized soups are good price and really delicious. The garlic noodles are great as well, but if you have nothing to pair it with just as great then it is hard to eat. They have a lot of items on the menu but when youre a small party of 2 or 3 it is hard to choose what to order. The grilled oysters were great but too huge. The jellyfish was also good. Place is small for a family style setting but it works. It is clean and intimate. I would give them another chance if I have a larger party or guest visiting town so we can try the larger plates and expand the variety hoping to hit their best dishes

I ordered the 1 dozen oysters, clam linguine, and house salad. Oysters -- 7/10 The oysters were really fresh and shucked right in front of you, which was definitely a plus. They were a little too big for my liking and had a creamier texture than I prefer, but overall they were good. Clam Linguine -- 7/10 The linguine was solid. The portion was decent, and I liked the combination of clams, lemon, garlic, and Parmesan. Nothing that completely blew me away, but still a good dish. Might pass on the parmesan next time because it clunked up as it melted in the dish. House Salad The salad was actually pretty good and surprisingly large for a house salad. Fresh lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, olives, and plenty of croutons. Overall, everything is prepared fresh right in front of you, which I really enjoyed. The oysters being freshly shucked definitely added to the experience. The wait wasn't terrible, and if you're an oyster or seafood fan, it's worth stopping by while you're in Tahoe. Overall: 7/10 thank youuuu

Kiddo has suddenly become obsessed with seafood boils, so hubby took them here for dinner…read more Unfortunately, I couldn't join them tonight, so I asked them to bring me home a simple bowl of clam chowder. *To be clear, this review is only about the clam chowder since I didn't try anything else. Unfortunately, the clam chowder was terribly watered down and had a noticeable "fishy" smell the moment I opened the lid. And before anyone says seafood is supposed to smell pungently fishy: no, it's not. If it smells bad, it's usually because it's not fresh. For a small bowl of clearly watered-down clam chowder that didn't seem fresh - and somehow cost around $20, more than some of the best clam chowders at well-known coastal seafood establishments - I'm annoyed enough to write a Yelp review, which I rarely do unless I'm especially impressed or especially offended. I'm offended.

The fried chicken was easily a 10/10! Perfectly seasoned, crispy skin, and juicy, tender meat. The fried catfish was also amazing. Not overly oily, perfectly cooked, and honestly one of the best things we had. The baked beans were incredible too. So much flavor and nice and saucy. The ribs were a close second. Great flavor and they literally fell off the bone. A few sides missed the mark for me personally. The cornbread was super dry and looked and tasted almost like it had been dipped in the fryer. The rice and gravy was really under-seasoned and didn't have much flavor. And unfortunately, the mac and cheese was pretty underwhelming. It was very watery and lacked any flavor. But the lemon cake?! Moist, delicious, and the serving was HUGE. Definitely save room for dessert! Despite a few misses with the sides, I'd 100% come back for the fried chicken, catfish, ribs, baked beans, and that lemon cake. Great service, a welcoming space, and some seriously good Southern food!

This place came highly recommended from a friend and we were excited to try it as we are both from…read morethe south. The restaurant was clean and bright with a decent amount of seating. You can wait to be seated or order takeout from the counter. The servers and staff were extremely friendly and treated you like a good friend they have known for years. Of course we started our meal with sweet teas. The tea was perfect and transported you directly to the south with every sip. As an appetizer we had the fried green tomatoes. The tomatoes were lightly battered, seasoned beautifully, and fried to perfection. The sauce that was served with them complemented them perfectly. For our mains, I had the shrimp basket with red beans and rice and my husband had the catfish plate with Mac-n-cheese and collard greens. I also ordered a side piece of fried catfish and a basket of fried okra. The catfish and the shrimp were both coated in the same light batter as the tomatoes. Like the fried green tomatoes, both the catfish on the platter and the shrimp were perfectly seasoned and cooked beautifully. The tartar sauce was rich and rich and creamy with just the right amount of tartness. The Mac-n-cheese was well seasoned and delicious, however the cheese sauce was thicker than what we prefer. The collard greens were perfection! My husband absolutely loves collard greens and is extremely picky on them yet he could not get enough of these! The red beans and rice were delicious. I would say that the balance and ratio was a bit off as the rice disappeared due to the amount of "sauce" from the dish making the bowl more of a soup. M&M seems like they can get pretty busy and can get backed up quickly both out front and in the kitchen. The servers were told at one point to wait to put in orders for a bit (it was about 20 min before they were told they could resume) and my piece of fish and my okra came out after we finished our meal (it was almost like the kitchen forgot about it-even though we asked about it 2 times). The okra was crispy and very lightly battered. We will definitely be returning, but will be making sure to give ourselves more time as this meal took us 2 hours from seating to getting the check.

We arrived en mass and were welcomed by an excellent staff at the door. As that our group for the most part were of Italian Mediterranean parentage all were pleasantly surprised at the numerous authentic dishes form which to chose. When our entrees arrived our group got very quiet-not an easy thing to do considering the persona of us overall. Excellent food, good wine, very generous portions with perfect timing in regard to the appetizers and entrees being served together. As we finished we asked that a glass of the chefs favorite wine be sent back in a show of appreciation. Slade came out and thanked us; we were surprised to see how young he was for the expertise in which he had prepared such an excellent experience. Naturally being the shy retiring wallflowers we are -NOT- we asked about his background and were pleasantly surprised again to find his culinary education had started with family and grown as he had. Good to find locally owned family core dining downtown Carson City, in the heart of our old town settings. Your family did well with you, Slade, and you honor them with your expertise. See you again soon-bank on that.

My wife had the pork loin special that she absolutely loved. The side veggies were somewhat bland. I had the wonderful tasting cioppino and turns out it is lazy man's (you have to pick out the shells). After I picked the meat out of shells and wiped off my hands, I enjoyed the flavors of my dinner. To top it off, our waiter surprised us with the restaurants take on tiramisu. OMG! One piece is plenty for two people. The atmosphere is pleasant and the service is relaxed. A bit too relaxed for me but that my be the way italia likes it.

Located in historic Genoa (Nevada's very first settlement), this beautifully restored 1855 Gothic Revival landmark has that wonderful old-time feel that makes the experience special from the moment you walk in. The food is fantastic, with a delicious Southern twist that reminds me of New Orleans--big, bold flavors that make every bite memorable. We also loved the wood-fired pizzas, which are a must-try. And the craft cocktails? Absolutely yummy. To top it all off, they feature live acoustic music that adds such a fun, lively vibe to the whole experience. The service was great, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Perfect for a family visit or a night out with friends. Can't wait to come back! Highly recommend.

This updated review is strictly based on food. Our service this time around was much better as far…read moreas timing. We got: Nippon Elote - Tasted nothing like Japanese flavors. I think it's safe to say they use frozen corn which is a shame because fresh corn is still very much in season. I had their corn as an accompaniment to one of my past dishes and the texture is the same. Completely over cooked, soggy, mushy corn on the cob with absolutely no flavor. And get this, it costs $18 or $19! It's literally one corn on the cob that they portion into 4 or 6 pieces. Fish Special - It was rock fish with a red pepper sauce, eggplant stacked with feta and herbed roasted potatoes. The fish was over cooked and really salty. Eggplant was dry and difficult to eat. I didn't even bother with it. Potatoes, no big deal. Margherita Pizza - Good flavor, just not a fan of their crust Tchoupitoulas- We've gotten this in the past and this seems to be consistent with flavor and execution. My husband said it was as good as the first time. Kid's Mac n Cheese - At $19 I expected a large portion. It's not. But it was the best dish we ordered. It's more of a macaroni with Alfredo sauce rather than a cheddar mac n cheese. My son enjoyed it as did everyone else at the table.

Lacked ice and they dont have hot mustard other korea bbq places serve this kind of dish. Thought it would be another go to place for my korean cold noodle place but failed to make it. The dish also has slices of apple vs what is normally sold with shredded meat. Previous reviews still hold that the prices are really high for cheap meats. The ayce setup still gives you a lot on each dish and you risk over ordering and get the dreaded wasted food surcharge. Until they set their prices to a steal I would visit this place cautiously or it will drain your weekly dining budget quickly. Staff still is friendly like always and the place is always good to bring a big group but I wish they would make it "local" friendly on the pocket. If they perhaps gave smaller dishes each time you order beef you could order more variety but it limits you because one plate of beef is good to feed some people a full meal. That then defeats the purpose of ayce. A la carte items is also priced so high you cant get more than one dish for each person to get variety. To sum it up, they've rigged it to have each person spend at least 40 to 50 dollars to have a reasonably enjoyable experience here trying their many good items.

We called in two pizzas and a large salad for pick up and decided to head down early and have a glass of wine. The service was friendly and the atmosphere typical Italian restaurant. When we opened the pizzas at home we remembered they were what I call a Bisquick crust, not even close to authentic. The flavor was ok for me and my wife liked it. The salad looked like it was pulled from a bag, not trimmed with pieces way to big to eat and brown ends. Total turn off. To top it off the total for two 9 dollar glasses of wine, a cheese pizza, a vegi pizza and a bag salad with a 20% tip was just over $100 dollars. Ouch! Especially for ok flavored bisquick crust pizza. We will be back for sit down meals but will definitely not be back for pizza or salad.
