    The outside of the building is deceiving, as well as the bar area. Don’t be fooled by this, the dining area, the food, and the service is top notch. Would highly recommend.

    Neighborhood haunt. Seafood gumbo was very good; flatbread, not so much. Good enough cocktail, good enough wine list. Bartender wasn't very chatty.

    Great food, very extensive menu featuring a good variety of food. Portions are large, good wine and cocktail menu with generous pours. Very reasonable pricing. Nice atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant. We were attending a concert from out of town and chose this restaurant after researching on TripAdvisor.
