Had a choice of the bar or dining room and chose the dining room. Ordered a side salad and shrimp scampi. The wait for food was average even though there wasn't many customers. The food arrived and while it was very flavorful - the scamp had way too much paprika for me. Overall it was a good experience. The waitress was very attentive and helpful.

We started with the lobster and shrimp dip--rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. For our entrees, my husband ordered the filet paired with a margarita, while I had the shrimp and a refreshing mule. Every bite and sip was perfection.

And then there was a picture of a skull lol. It's very spacious inside. Parking is like downtown parking, we parked in the street. My husband's parallel parking skills could've been better. He's too used to his back up camera. You wait in line and order. The taste of everything was solid. It's fresh. The Cajun dog is made with alligator and pork meat. Texture was good. It's messy so eat it with the fork and knife they gave you, which is my mistake. Everything just tastes better when you eat a hot dog without utensils. The paddie melt is also good as well. The rosemary garlic fries had good flavor and same with the onion rings. They happened to just bring us out the loaded onion rings so we were pleasantly surprised. Service is friendly. Very nice place. The portions were actually loaded because normally I wouldn't think I'd be full from the food but it was really filling. I give it a four out of five because it didn't blow me away. But very solid. Definitely give it a try!
