    The food and service were great. I’ve been there at least 5 times and have always had great experiences. The only negative thing I experienced this most recent time was my friend and I could barely hear each other talk during the entire dinner and had to talk very loud over the music as the speakers were right above our table. Other than that, we had a good dinner.

    We loved the food.. We all got different brunch entrees so that we could try everything …. the scramble was so good.. cheesy eggs with tater tots and linguica,.. as was the brisket benedict and biscuits and gravy .. We also ordered the beignets for a taste of New Orleans and they didn’t disappoint! We had traditional mimosas, tho the swirled ice option was tempting, and their signature bloody mary. We loved the food and the vibe…We’ll be back.
