Worse service I have ever had here. Took forever just to get our drinks ordered then the appetizer took forever and the entree came out within 2 minutes of the appetizer. I drove over two hours and was very disappointed. Going to have to mark off my restaurant places to visit

The cocktail server on Saturday December 27th was amazing. We sat at a bar booth. We were greeted asap and with respect. We arrived at 830pm which is late since I am familiar with the industry but the service was awesome 👌. Thank you for making my birthday dinner top notch... I never told the server it was my birthday by the way.!! I think her name was Emily.. but unsure.

The service is excellent but beware for any of the gator bite fans… they have discontinued the creole butter that used to be served with the dish and swapped it with some kind of sweet Asian sauce. This was one of the main things that set this restaurant apart from many competitors.

My first time coming to this establishment and I ordered a meal that I wanted. When the food came out it was not what I ordered. When they waiter came he told me they ran out of what I ordered and they sent something else I would want. They never asked me and I did not want that! They got the manager and he said he would allow me to pick out something else and give me 50% off. Mind you the person I had joining me for dinner had received her food and by the time I would get my food (because we had been waiting forever already) they would be done. I drove from Louisville because I heard great things. Unfortunately that was not my experience and I will not return.
