Chloe BetzenJune 5, 2014Luke is the bomb diggity. He looks like Will Turner from Pirates of the Caribbean. Also the Hurricanes are kick ass. The crawfish étouffée and jambalaya are to die for.
Precious PorrasMay 31, 2013This place has amazing food, great atmosphere & reasonable prices! Try the seafood platters or the crawfish stuffed catfish, you won't be disappointed!
David AndradoJuly 2, 2013This aint no hole in the wall restaurant so be prepared to dish out about $15-$20 per plate. The crawfish bread is awesome and they honor the first time check in unlock of a free appetizer.
Ami H.May 2, 2023Stellar Bloody Marys loaded with house-marinated spicy pickled dilly beans, okra, olives, and pearl onions. Have 3 and call it supper ;)
