What reservations? The hostess informed us upon entering Nimbeaux's that they don't accept reservations, so don't waste your time trying to make any! As for food, select at least 3 entrees that sound appetizing because chances are they will be out of something you would like to eat. Or, they will substitute something they do have in the back without telling you and bring it to you anyway, possibly hoping you won't notice! Overall, this was a huge disappointment and ruined our Father's Day dinner!

But it is really hard to complain about a restaurant who opens for business at 5 p.m. on Saturday and happily takes an opentable reservation made at 4:30 p.m. that same day for a table for 19. That alone marks it high in my books. Then the owners were gracious enough to take my great-nephews on a tour of the kitchen and the back office! Thanks for taking care of us Nimbeaux's. We had a great mini-family reunion on my trip to Lafayette!
