The location is great and the inside is nice and spacious. Service was fantastic, we had some chips and salsa as soon as we sat down. We got some queso dip, it was probably the highlight of the visit. Piping hot and super flavorful. The rest of the meal was a little lacking. I had the Chile Rellenos and it was unique to say the least. The flavors were unlike any rellenos I've had before. They were cooked well, and they weren't bad, it was just middle of the road. If I was to go back I'd get the tacos. They had some good seasoning and had more flavor than any of the other dishes. Great service, good food!

Adobo and one of the tacos.  We were busy eating!

The flavors are sooooo good! Pastor tacos and adobo were fantastic! 85 characters for this is too much

Pipian chicken with "tiny, tiny" serving of Spanish rice with salad
Marco R.

We arrived for lunch during the week, the place looks inviting and we were seated right away. We got our drinks right away, with warm chips and red medium heat salsa. We didn't get an appetizer but the menu looks appealing, may try some next time. I ordered the Pipian Chicken, it wasn't great, the pipian sauce is served over chicken filet, but the flavor was lacking salt and the plate and food was not hot, not even warm. I do have to give you a star for the salad, it's a cabbage salad with crunchy tortillas thin strips, the rice is tasty but the portion of rice was "tiny", you could easily give double that amount on each plate. I would ask that your server tells you that you are getting a vinegar dressing for your salad, and provided other options. My other 3 coworkers had the beef filet that comes with sweet fried plantains. Hope to come back and try other choices.

Local family owned spot inside of a renovated church. Place has tons of charm with many original…read moreelements intact, but modern at the same time. One of two places it looks like to eat in Founders Row. Came with a group of 7. We stood around the bar height tables and had drinks for about an hour before finally sitting down. The bartender took great care of us despite the size of the group and ensured we had everything we needed. Once we sat down, the real magic happened. We ordered a few apps for the table, calamari, spinach and artichoke dip and alligator bites. I only had some of the artichoke dip and some of the complementary smoked salmon dip they brought out. Didn't want to be too full for the catfish plate I ordered. The artichoke dip was made with smoked Gouda and was great. The other apps got great comments from other people in the party. I ordered a fried catfish plate that came with grilled shrimp, coleslaw and fries. Catfish was cooked perfectly and the grilled shrimp were delicious, great seasoning. The coleslaw is made with cabbage, green bell pepper and apple cider vinegar. Really great combo that worked well. Service was great especially for our large party. Our server who was also the bartender because we sat in the bar area kept a fresh soda water in front of me the entire time, never had to ask. The manager/owner? even stopped over to check in on us a couple of times. Stop in for a great meal, I wish I could return to try the crawfish etoufee.

There's also an easy-going ambiance reminiscent of that Crescent City charm with a menu and service to match. We were delighted to see so much of the late David Wilson's cuisine on the menu from his Cedar Hill restaurant. His son Shawn has a jewel here and it was tough to decide on an entree. There are many enticing newer items. Special menu items included a Spinach Artichoke Dip, Steelhead Trout, and even Grouper! Our waiter, Tanner, was very kind and helpful. Eventually I ordered an old favorite, the Fried Seafood Platter with Fried shrimp, scallops, and catfish that came with a Remoulade, a sweet and spicy Cocktail Sauce and a delicious Tartar Sauce. Substitutions were not a problem and of the sides, I ordered the sautéed Spinach and a potato cake! My husband was easy. Wilson's Pot Roast was calling him. Cooked with Cajun seasoning and slow roasted, it's served with mashed potatoes, celery, carrots, fried onions and gravy. He also wanted some Jalapeño Hush Puppies. There was virtually no wait for our food or so it seemed. Our food arrived and it was terrific, first bite to last. Odd that I would enjoy a vegetable so much but the spinach was excellent and it disappeared. All of my Seafood was perfectly fried with even my shrimp tails edible - nice and tender and crunchy. The potato cake was also yummy. I haven't had one in some time. That thin fried shell with the creamy tasty interior ... My husband was over there seemingly playing in his fried onions and gravy. I had to laugh. And then try some. Ooooh. So good. He couldn't stop eating them. And the roast beef! Very tender and a huge portion. We were definitely impressed with our first outing. The restaurant is beautiful. A gorgeous bar takes up one side of room. There are tables with pews for seating, and others with a singular banquette on one side and chairs on the other. These tables can be moved. There are two unisex restrooms. Everything was very clean. The "Revival Tent" patio is equipped with fans and lighting and would be nice in almost any weather. There is ramped handicapped access in front. We're coming back soon. I was impressed with the environs, pricing, portions, quality and especially the service.

My husband ordered the sampler, which was a great choice because he got to try three different types of shrimp, and I went with the butter garlic shrimp. Everything came out hot, fresh, and perfectly cooked. The flavors were incredible...honestly some of the best shrimp we've had. The atmosphere is low-lit with a rustic feel, which we really enjoyed. They were definitely busy, with a steady flow of customers and DoorDash pickups, but that just speaks to how popular they are. The only small downside was that the tables needed a little attention and we ended up bussing ours ourselves, but it wasn't a big deal considering how great everything else was. Prices are very reasonable too. Our meals were around $12-$14 each, and for two meals and drinks we spent about $30, which felt like a great value for the quality. We'll definitely be back. I was so impressed I'm already thinking about how to recreate the butter garlic shrimp at home just so I can enjoy it more often! Highly recommend!

Seating consist of boots tables, and a little bit of a sushi bar seating. SERVICE Huge deductions for service and my party was not happy. Initially service was good, and they were attentive to us, but gradually it declined. It took around almost an hour for us to get our food. Parties that were seated before us, and around the same size got their food before us and left before we even got our food. They were also pretty rude when we asked about one of the rolls that were missing. They didn't give us any updates throughout unless we went out of our way to ask them.
