Went for Mother’s Day’s and had a table of 4. All our appetizers and dinners were delicious! The sides of mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts and creamed spinach excellent! Loved the beignets for dessert! All in all had a very pleasant experience! Was a little disappointed we had to pay for bread for the table, but I guess that is the thing? I must say the Bread was pretty good!
