I love that they offer a variety of boards you can share, and their drink options are great too. You can sit inside or outside, and they even have live music on some nights, which adds to the atmosphere. The service has always been great every time I've gone. They also have the cutest merchandise available for purchase. It's a great place for date night, hanging out with friends, celebrating birthdays or anniversaries, or just spending time with family. Highly recommend!

The restaurant itself is a hidden gem! It's cute! We started with some red wine... there weee 2 bottles because it was so good.

The steak and salmon were cooked to perfection- medium rare ... service was excellent especially on a very busy night. The best part ...they personalized our table. Hope you find the review helpful and check out!!!!

Honestly, the sweet potato fries may have been the best thing we had. I ordered the veggie quesadilla and added chicken, it was only ok.

I've heard good things about Olive or Twist, so I'm willing to give them another try for brunch.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with stellar customer service that set the tone for our entire experience. Our waiter, Justice, was truly delightful. It was an absolute pleasure being served by him. He was incredibly friendly, patient and attentive, especially with our party of 14, which included children. His attention to detail and welcoming demeanor stood out, and his positive energy elevated our experience. Justice went above and beyond, and his efforts did not go unnoticed! The entire staff working on Saturday, April 4 was top notch. Everyone we encountered was warm, helpful and professional. From the food and drinks to the atmosphere and overall service, everything exceeded our expectations. I can say this was a 5 Star Brunch experience. I will definitely be returning the next time I'm in Louisiana!

When I arrived it was honestly dead inside. Maybe one other customer and I had to ask if they were still open because it was oddly slow. But you want to know what was not dead? Their food! I ordered a glass of wine and the beef tenderloin cooked medium rare. He steak came with fingerling potatoes and veggies. The steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly, the veggies had a slight crunch and not overcooked and the fingerling potatoes were the perfect add to that dish. I sat at the bar and had the place to myself but overall really enjoyed my food. Friendly staff and very happy with my experience.

The tuna salmon carpaccio was good, little thrown off as it was warm which had me worried. But it was very good and balanced. The rice puffs were addicting. lobster roll was good even Though it was cold style which is not my favorite but the bread was delicious and they filled it nicely. Just need to provide more butter. Their fries were airy and consistent. The only not good part was the tiramisu and the colada drink. The cookie wafers were too much and too dense. All in all will come back.

I guess I was expecting my shrimp would be covered in cajun sauce but it came plane with cajon seasoning and a dipping sauce on the side. We also tried frog legs which was tasty. The service was quick and the lady who served us was very nice, her name is Heron S. We were seated in a room with other ladies and families. It felt like home, people having pleasant conversations We were lucky it was Monday and the shrimp was the special of the day.

The hostess was warm and welcoming and seated us promptly. It wasn't too busy when we arrived, which made for a relaxed experience. They also had a singer performing that day. We ordered different dishes. I had a crawfish hash with potatoes, eggs, and sauce, while he ordered the Chantilly waffle, which was topped with strawberries and blueberries, along with a side of candied bacon. He really enjoyed his meal. I enjoyed mine as well, though I think the potatoes would have been even better if I had ordered my eggs sunny-side up to create more sauce throughout the dish. That's more of a personal preference, as I usually prefer my eggs over hard. Overall, the experience was enjoyable . Our waiter wasn't particularly friendly, though she may have been very busy that day. I did have a few interactions with the bartender, who was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about their wine selection. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to try something different for brunch or lunch.

Just make sure you get your ticket validated. The soup of the day was mushroom. Second best mushroom soup ever had. Secondly to 1908 at Longwood Gardens. Highly recommend. I had the Sensation salad with chicken. Very refreshing yet filling by adding the grilled chicken. Love the cut up tomatoes and what I think was caper berries. I love that when I made the reservation on open table, the restaurant knew my allergies when I arrived and had marked up a menu for me! Excellent service. Our food was great and our service exceptional. I highly recommend The Gregory if you are in the area.

The rum and cocktails made for us were solid. The bartenders were awesome. Great interaction with guest. Bartenders were very knowledgeable of the distillery plus the drinks they were pouring. I appreciated the enthusiasm. The distillery is very nice space. The distillery offers bar seating, lounge chairs and tables. Plus there is an expansive outdoor seating area. As the distillery does not offer food, they often coordinate food trucks to enjoy with your drinks. A crawfish boil was going on the day we were there. At the distillery you can purchase bottles of rum to go. Plus they sell various shirts to me and women. Distillery owns a parking lot adjacent to the building. Parking is free. Inside scoop: the distillery offers tours for 15 dollars

I wanted a great place with a chill vibe and great drinks and they did not disappoint. The service was amazing and the drinks were perfect. I got their raspberry frozen drink and also tried their flight of rum which comes with over six different types of rum, light and dark. The bartenders were so sweet and they made amazing drinks all night. I also tried their old fashioned and fresh mint mojito ( taken directly from their herb garden)! Everything was done perfectly. They have a nice, large patio outside with plenty of room to sit. They have board games, darts, large Jenga, and more. We were able to spend quality time with family and friends and enjoy the night. We were also allowed to bring our own food from outside which was perfect for the occasion. I cannot wait to come back to such an amazing place located right downtown next to Ballys casino. They also offer tours of their distillery for a great price! Thank you so much for an amazing experience.
