It didn't bother me as you can walk around the shops and get a text when your table is ready. There were attentive and very friendly servers! Drinks were yummy, french toast was great and their tuna tartare tasted fresh. Would definitely go again.

The wait was slightly longer than I would have liked. Enjoyed the outdoor seating area. Our waiter was very hospitable and kind.

It type long for us to get our drinks and our order taken. I think the picture that was on Yelp looked better than my French toast. I thought it was pretty good. The oysters we ordered though was pretty sad. It was super small. Everything was alright. I wouldn't say it was the best. I liked that they had a dog menu but they ran out of ther pup cakes.

The yellow curry was so good and the shrimp chorizo was so bomb. The dessert was okay. I wish they had more items on the menu for dessert. I still give this place 5 stars!!!!

We had a great conversation and it was apparent they knew good food and drinks. They recommended the shrimp and chorizo app- get it on rice but ALSO get the baguette. Which of course I did. When I ordered it the bartender who helped me said “oh yeah! Best thing on the menu!” I haven’t tried the rest of the menu but this plate was amazing. It was expertly seasoned- I feel like there might even have been some filé (Cajun spice that typically goes in gumbo) in? Not sure but it was noticeably well made. Cocktails were also great, I can’t remember which one I got but it had a flower garnish which was really lovely- the flower aroma was that of a marigold and the scent really added to the flavor of the drink- more than I would’ve expected. Definitely check it out! Service was also really good even tho it was busy- I sat at the bar.
