The appetizers and entree flavors definitely screams N'awlens! The staff is always very friendly, very informative, and accommodating to request. The ambience has a mid-scale/upscale flavor when it comes to their ambiance inside and with the decorations. We got invited back to one of the owners birthday party so we decided to come through. It's been great!! If you come to Chattanooga then this is a must stop location for great food that won't hurt your wallet and the portions are just right.

We had The location is beautiful. The decor was tasteful with nods to Louisiana and New Orleans (NO). We walked in at 9 pm, 30 minutes before they close. We all ordered gumbo but it was sold out. The chef came out to explain so we ordered something else. Chef Mo brought us the remainder of the gumbo so we could have a sample. It was delicious. We ordered jambalaya and shrimp po'boy. The jambalaya was a great pick, the shrimp po'boy was pretty good, the bread was amazing, the shrimp were juicy and fresh. I added hot sauce for some zing. We were full but pre ordered beignets so I had to take one for the team and eat one. The best I've had outside of NO. The chef brought my friends an extra lil treat. Cherry bread puddling. I'll be honest I'm not a fan and did not want to try it. (It's a texture issue for me) However these were different. We were presented with 4 golden brown hush puppy looking delights in a cast iron skillet covered in a rum sauce. I took a small bite, the outside was crispy and the inside was moist chewy and delicious. It was an unexpected surprise. We completely loved the experience and the staff. We will be returning tomorrow to get a full servicing of gumbo! UPDATE: Went back for the seafood gumbo and we were not disappointed.

Selenna was our server and she was so attentive to our party of 6 as well as the other tables she was taking care of. The salmon on my strawberry feta salad was seasoned to perfection! My brownie sundae for dessert was made even better when my request to have chopped walnuts added, was honored. The overall ambiance was calm, but high spirited. There are large TVs with sports playing, indoor and a heated patio for seating. Did I mention that Selenna was great?? I highly recommend trying this place!

My husband had the Smoked Brisket French Dip - Smoked Brisket, Caramelized Onions, Provolone Cheese, Au Jus, French Hoagie with Beer Battered Fries. I had The Motherclucker - Springer Mountain Farms Southern Fried Chicken, Spiced Pickles, Hot Sauce, Duke's Mayo, Niedlov's Bun. Hunter recommended adding Pepper Jack cheese and Bacon, as well as the Brussels Sprouts with Maple & Bacon. Everything was wonderful. There were way too many Brussels sprouts. It also would have been nice if they were cut into smaller pieces. They had a special dessert of Blackberry Cobbler with Vanilla Ice Cream. This brought back childhood memories of my grandmother's cobblers. My husband had the Brownie with Vanilla Ice Cream.

There's always a variety of oysters from five or six different locations, and today, I had to compete with my daughter and grandson to get my fair share. You want to take advantage of the variety, it makes for a an outstanding eating experience.

While the seafood is wonderful, there is a variety of offerings that include some Mexican, some barbecue, fresh sandwiches and salads. Service is always top notch. They have a few of their own recipe drinks, this is a spot you definitely want to give a try!

The vibe is relaxed and social, great patio energy, easy place to hang out with friends, and it feels lively without being overwhelming. The food was solid. Tasty, well prepared, good portions, but nothing that blew me away or felt dramatically different from other brunch spots I've tried. That said, the pricing felt fair. I had the breakfast sandwich and my wife had the Mexican Omelette. The Bloody Mary was actually really good, balanced and flavorful. I was a little surprised they didn't have any stuffed olives (my go-to garnish), and the server wasn't familiar with them, which caught me off guard. Not a big deal, just unexpected. The only real hiccup was at the end. Our ticket got mixed up and I tried having the server correct it. He said he would at the computer, he took our cards and I get a receipt where my card was charged on another ticket. So I ended up paying for someone else's food. It wasn't intentional and these things happen, but it was a frustrating way to wrap up the meal. Overall, I'd come back. Good atmosphere, fair prices, solid food. It's not a "must plan your whole weekend around it" spot for me, but it's a dependable option if you're in the area.

Each oyster has a beautiful deep shell filled with clean, briny liquor that captures the true taste of the ocean. The flavor is perfectly balanced with a crisp saltiness followed by a smooth, slightly sweet finish that makes you want another one immediately. The texture is firm yet delicate, making them incredibly satisfying to eat. Whether enjoyed on their own, with a squeeze of lemon, or a light mignonette, these oysters truly shine. Irish Point oysters deliver a fresh, refined seafood experience and are easily some of the best oysters you can have. Highly recommended.

You're definitely paying for the scenery because the food was underwhelming. We ordered six items,…read moreand three out of the six lacked flavor. The gumbo tasted like canned chili. The stuffed mushrooms did not taste fresh and also lacked flavor. The calamari lacked flavor as well and was a big disappointment. The server was nice and set our expectations, advising that some of the items we ordered were more of an acquired taste, but we were still disappointed. There was a server change at one point, and the new server was not careful when delivering the food and spilled the gumbo upon arrival. Considering the price and value, this place is definitely a one and done.

My wife has a gluten and dairy allergy, and I've got a tree nut allergy, Alpha-Gal, plus a diabetes kicker. Staff were attentive and helpful navigating the restrictions--appreciated that it wasn't a production. Food was very good across the board, which is no small thing when you're feeding a multigenerational group with varying tastes. Extensive bar offerings. I particularly enjoyed the whiskey selections--well curated and worth exploring. The ambiance lands well too--rustic but stylish, and comfortable enough that a mixed-age group settled in easily. Good for: business meals, dates, large groups and private events Would come back.

The beets were fresh and the goat cheese carried so much flavor. For the desserts, we got the carrot cake with pecans and chocolate cheesecake. Both were soooo good. I would get both of them again, especially the carrot cake which was so warm and moist. And the candied pecans were such a nice complement to the cake - not too sweet at all. The ambience is super nice and fresh, and our server was so sweet and engaging. The hostess as well. Everybody there was so nice and welcoming.

The service is attentive. The menu was diverse, creative, and exciting. However, the actual food was mediocre at best. My husband and I shared two classic dishes--whipped feta and falafel. The feta was fine, but about a quarter cup for $15 felt excessive. The falafel meant well, but it was dense and dry. Plus, the sauces served on top, while tasty, were overwhelming. Again, $12 for three golf-sized balls was too much. Finally, the zataar pita was approaching burnt and much too crispy. I've heard the chef can be mercurial, so perhaps it was an off-night.
