- JGJack Eddie (Google Guide)Nov 12, 20255.0Wonderful clam chowder and oyster shooters
- VBVicktoria BassNov 10, 20253.0We ordered the jambalaya & gumbo with chicken. The food was great. I asked for a extra bread and the man only gave me 1 because thats what was in the toaster in front of him. We had some bread to go and they didnt toast it. The staff seems irritated and overworked. On our way out of the casino, one of the employees chased us down and asked me to put 0$ for tip since i decided to leave nothing (on the receipt). I put $0 said Okay and she said , "can i ask why you didnt leave a tip?" I replied "we forgot to, it was nothing personal we just didn't think about it". She replied "you didn't THINK to tip my cooks? You didn't THINK to tip my servers?" With A terrible attitude. I told her "You know what? With THAT attitude no", and walked away. Maybe she was the management, i didn't check. I usually only leave a tip if something was significant in service or even if we have extra cash on us. My husband usually pays and he always leaves a tip. But i paid this time. We were tired, drove 5hrs and just wanted to eat and sleep haha. I even offered to leave a tip before she got an attitude but i didnt have extra cash on me and i paid with card. This all occurred Saturday November 8th at about 2pm.

- WBWilliam BOct 11, 20255.0The food was absolutely delicious. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor. You can really tell that fresh, high-quality ingredients are used in everything. My entrée was cooked to perfection, and the appetizers and desserts were just as impressive. The menu offers a great variety — whether you’re in the mood for something classic or adventurous, there’s something for everyone. What really made the experience stand out was the service. The staff were attentive, friendly, and professional without being overbearing. They checked in at just the right times, made great recommendations, and seemed genuinely proud of the food they serve.
