The food was okay... very fresh... didn't really care for some of the flavors. The lady at the front counter was not very nice. And they were out of the grits which is what we came in for.

Came here on a Saturday morning around 11am and there was a line out the door. We only waited for about 15 minutes to order and be seated.I ordered the shrimp and grits, a side of scrambled eggs, and potatoes. The shrimp and grits were pretty underwhelming which was disappointing. The grits were thick and creamy but lacked flavor - they were salted/buttery. The shrimp were fresh and seasoned but the roux was just oily with no flavor. Most shrimp and grits dishes the grits are either seasoned or the roux the shrimp is cooked in is seasoned.The eggs were good. The potatoes were my favorite part. Super flavorful and crispy on the outside, soft inside. I would come back and try something else. Everything else I see from others around me looked delicious.

Food was good and the wait for the food was short. The atmosphere was pleasant and low-key ?

Wednesday afternoon. Def a Cajun restaurant not a creole, IYKYK. Got the grits and shrimp. Grits weren’t seasoned. But I wasn’t thrilled of a lot of things on the menu.

Love the bright, shiny feel of this place. It is a step above fast food, since you pay at the counter first, take your drinks and number holder to your seat & wait for them to bring your order to you. It's a great meet up spot. They will even help you save space, if you want to meet a group of friends. But no hassle with sorting through a large bill. Everyone pays for what they want before thry sit down to enjoy each other. Your table is constantly bussed, so you still feel well served. Love this place!
