    We have been there before & enjoyed the food and had no trouble with service. Maybe the chef was having a bad day. We took some friends there who had never been & it was many different things that caused me to give it a low rating. Our food came out cold, my friend didn't get his complete order, one of his sides was cold & you could tell it was just frozen potato cubes. We where very grateful to the manager he compted our food & offered dessert.

    My son met me at the restaurant for lunch and to celebrate his 21st birthday. We decided to eat at the bar which turned out nice because the bartenders went out of their way to make it special. My cocktails were delicious and the burgers we had were cooked perfectly. This is definitely a great addition to an already outstanding attraction in a city full of things to do.

    The place is beautiful, had brunch while staying at the new Higgins hotel. The food was very good, our server very attentive. Would absolutely eat here again. We had the biscuits and gravy as well as the crawfish eggs Benedict. Wish both were a little hotter in temperature but overall a great dining experience. The museum is NOT to be missed.

    What a wonderful place to take a break from touring the museum and have a very nice, relaxing lunch. All of our food was fresh and flavorful, and very reasonably priced. The service was excellent.

    I don’t normally seek out restaurants within museums but everything I read about this place said check it out and I’m glad we did. We had the Country Supper w/ wings and an Oyster Po Boy. Both very good. Also recommend their house special Victory Garden Bloody Mary. Tasty with just the right kick. A great place to take an hour’s break while visiting the WWII Museum.

    I met a friend for brunch and we were very happy with the brunch menu and the lunch menu. We also really liked the choice of three juices with the bottomless mimosas. My husband and I are already planning our next brunch for this weekend.
