"Dropped by on a whim the other day. Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food, service and the overall ambience. We ended up sharing a tuna nicoise salad and a rack of baby back ribs between two. The ribs came with a side of mac and cheese and coleslaw. The amount of food was more than enough for two. The highlights for me was definitely the mac and cheese and coleslaw. The ribs were still good, but the sides were GREAT. Service was good, no-nonsense. Atmosphere was nice with a live jazz band. I'd definitely recommend anyone looking for a good feed and good vibes to drop by."

"One of the best places in NYC for good food, good service and live music. The charbroiled oysters were delicious, full of butter sauce on a bed of lettuce and bread. Excellent! Gumbo was very good as well. The shrimp Po boy es good but could have more shrimps. The The begnets we're good but it could be a bit lighter and fluffier. Overall I've if the better modern Cajun food. Prices were reasonable. There were outside seating and beautifully decorated restaurants. On the mezzanine is where a small band would play. Protip. Weekends there is live music. Check with the restaurant for times. Reservations are needed. It's busy. We went late lunch after 2.30pm and there was no waiting."

"Great place to get Creole food. I had the vegan jambalaya and the jerk cauliflower tacos. My partner tried the jambalaya with chicken and sausage. The vegan jambalaya had pineapples and cashews which added a nice flavor to it. The tofu in the vegan jambalaya was the star! We also had the bread pudding for desert and I would definitely recommend it. Overall a great place for dinner."

"I don’t know where to begin on how wonderful my friends and I ate at this restaurant. We seriously underestimated how great this restaurant turned out. Everything we had from the drinks to dessert was extremely delicious. My friend ordered the Hurricane. He liked it very much. I ordered the Summer Sangria. It was very yummy. My other close friend ordered the Purple Reign. She liked it so much that she ordered it a second time. Then came the appetizers. Honestly I’ve never had Creole food so I was really excited to try it and my anticipation paid off. My friend ordered the Gumbo. We all completely fell in love with it. We literally fighting each other for the shrimp. Lol! The Gumbo was so good that I ordered a second plate to take home. I ordered the Jambalaya. Seeing that it was my first time trying it I really enjoyed it. My friend ordered the XO noodles. He really liked it. My other friend ordered the Bouillabaisse. She savored it. She loved dipping her bread into the sauce. I noticed how generous the portions are. The Gumbo can be a meal in itself. We all took our leftovers home with us. For dessert we ordered the beignets and the bread pudding. We all agreed the bread was the hit of the entire meal. It was so delicious! Our server was extremely nice and attentive to us. I can go on and on of all the great things about this restaurant. I can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough. Everyone should experience it for themselves."
