I have only ever been here for events and it is a stunner. The renovations, the wood floors are just gorgeous. This building was underused for years and it's just great to see it being fully used. There is a restaurant on the 1st floor but I never seem to be nearby when it is open (and I think it's been closed since last year because of the pandemic). If you're invited to an event here, go. It is so pretty. Also know that the elevators are super confusing and you might not end up where you wanted to go.

The venue is intimate (no bad seats) and comfortable (cup holders for your drinks at your seat!). The staff is friendly and helpful.

There's no dedicated bar, and you have to wait in line at the bar in the adjoining restaurant.

I had made reservations just to be safe. What I got: sesame chili glazed turkey necks (10/5) -- fall off the bone tender. more sesame and brown sugar than chili flavor. only advice is they garnish these with cilantro leaf, but should try using stems if they want more flavor Blackened catfish (10/5) -- first time having blackened anything, which might be bad because this set the bar HIGH. the edges of the catfish were super crispy and the inside was cooked perfectly (See photos). well seasoned and a huge portion Collard greens (10/5) -- smoky, savory, tender, a little sweet and not overly salty Crab rice (5/5) -- this was a daily special and I subbed this as one of the sides for the catfish plate. Seems like a fried rice with the holy trinity and typical cajun seasoning. Flavorful although the crab itself didn't come through This is a must visit eatery with stellar service, food, and vibes.

I first learned about this great service because they are partnered with Crescent City Farmer's Market to bring boxes from their purveyors. I had a box delivered a couple of Fridays ago. I knew it would be on a Friday (ordered on Tuesday, I think) and they called me midmorning and told me when to expect the box. Then the delivery person called and said they would be at my house in a few. The box was left at my front door and was chock full of amazing fruits and vegetables and even some backed goods. This week I'm going with the combo box which will have both fruit and veggies. If the box you want says sold out or not available. Then try again next week, they only take a specific number of orders per delivery day for their boxes. When we're not in a pandemic, they deliver to community partners and that's where you pick up. This helps get fresh food to areas without grocery stores and can help get discounts via bulk buying. I'm so grateful for this service right now!
