We went on Tuesday date night and it was just lovely. A huge deal! And Garret, our server, was lively and the most accommodating. Seriously, their Tuesday date night special is next level.

Stopped in last night for a late night dinner and had hands down the best chicken wings ever. The wings were simply fried to perfection and tossed in a flavorful, but not overpowering blackened dry rub. The meat was juicy, but not runny or undercooked. My lady had the Buffalo Gumbo which was nicely seasoned, full of flavor and a well executed departure from your typical New Orleans gumbo dishes. Slight mix up with our order that was handled without issue, and transparency on the restaurants part. Top notch service as well. All in all 10/10 highly recommend.

“It is as written.” This is what our server Nathan told us when my friend asked if there was pork or sausage in the red beans and rice. Those who have made red beans and rice or eaten authentic Cajun food would recognize this. This conversation began when we shared our food restrictions and Nathan shared there are “plenty” of things on the menu, as what I was inquiring about were “just the sides.” He then started at the top of the menu with bison and sausage. My friend and I shake our heads (not stopping Nathan). However, Nathan scolded us and stated he didn’t need to know what we didn’t like, that he would go through the menu and share what his preferences were. However, this is NOT what was asked of him. I asked for popular dishes and dishes that did not include foods listed in our restrictions. I was specifically asking about his suggestions AND the sides. He then walked away. I still had questions. He returned and asked if we were ready and I shared that I still had questions given he was not responsive to what was asked. He asked what our question was and I asked about the “greens” and as someone who has had greens, cooked greens for decades, and was raised by Black women from the South who cook I know this dish well. He says— “it’s actually chard.” This is surprising given greens are traditionally collards, turnips, or mustards. This is not noted on the menu. Nathan then shares that is “more like spinach.”Another friend asked if there was gluten in the cornbread. Nathan shared it was "just cornmeal." If you know cornbread well, you know that there is likely some form of flour in it unless it is the traditional cornbread or a mixture with gluten free flour. Again-- I've made both. A notation that offers if it is gluten free or not would have been helpful.At this point, I recognize that I should stay away from anything inspired by New Orleans or soul food as these dishes could have pork in them. After all, “as written” was not accurate to my knowledge of these dishes now. I select the traditional chicken sandwich— mistake. It was basically a very thick batter and more batter than chicken (a 2:1 ratio of batter to chicken). My friend also ordered the chicken sandwich and it was pink and she ended up eating the bun.The only dish that I had that was good were the Brussel sprouts. The slaw I got was extremely dry and I didn't eat much of it. Another friend had the burger with gluten free bread and was pleased, and another friend had the duck and said the portion wasn’t sufficient.I can say, this is the first time I have been scolded by a waiter. I will also note that I decided to tip after one friend shared she has been a waiter and the pay can be insufficient. So we did. Given that we are all in social fields as professionals, we recognized the limitations. I do hope that this review will offer insights to Revival of how Nathan treated myself and my friend. We were all in town for conferences and were interested in trying their “comfort foods.” I was not comforted during or after this visit. I won’t be referring anyone to Revival, unfortunately. I only stayed because one friend had another obligation to get to and I didn’t want to inconvenience anyone. In hindsight, I should have left as the rest of the meal was uncomfortable. If you are in town for NARST, NSELA, CCCS, or NSTA…just don’t.

I LOVE their 75 cent wings. They are absolutely phenomenal. I come in just to eat those occasionally and I never regret it. I've only tried the dry rub but excited to try the buffalo and hot honey. SO

Good food! Generous portions. Service was disappointing. We waited about 20 minutes on a Thursday night to put in our order. Wait staff uninformed, I asked about an ingredient in the salad, she went to ask the chef and reported back. When the salad arrived, the ingredient was not what she told me it would be. We had the Churrasco Poutine (flavorful but a bit salty), Gumbo (yum), Duck leg (yum), pork belly (meh -didn't finish it).
