"Tl;DR good, worth it, especially before a show, but something missing from that NOLA touch. I love Southern food. I have eaten extensively in New Orleans many times, at many different restaurants. This was some of the best I have found in New England, but if you are truly looking for New Orleans food, you might be a little underwhelmed. Everything was almost right, but missing a little heat and spice. They do provide hot sauce. I will say, the service was less than adequate. I saw server interacting with other tables, so I dont know what it was about me, but they were just not interested. Very little attention or follow up. Overall, I would recommend but with a grain of salt. Food is good, but New Englad good, service is fine."
