The food was delicious. We started with a bowl of seafood gumbo and loved it! I had the grilled chicken with mornay sauce and really enjoyed it. The stuffed potato was really tasty. My boyfriend ordered the fried fish and red beans. The fish was fried perfectly and I'd definitely recommend trying it! This is a great little place for a relaxed, family style southern meal. Will definitely return.

I prefer a little darker gravy and gumbo (just personal preference, not a criticism of theirs). The green beans were absolutely amazing!! I think next time I’ll try the catfish poboy, as it seems to be the specialty. I do highly recommend giving this place a try. Definitely a local favorite.
