Good place to watch a football game. Even though the tv channel can’t be switched , food was great and service too. Music was good

Jay Garcia Murillo

Came here on a wonderful Friday Night with not only live music, but NHL Games to watch all over the restaurant! Their appetizer sampler was phenomenal and I would get it again, especially for a crowd! Their jazzy jambalaya is so delicious as well! They also have a wonderful Brunch menu! Can’t wait to come back soon!

Daniel Tusso

For our sons 21st birthday, we came here for drinks and a bite to eat. The food was delicious. Shannon gave us the best service. The music was great and played at the perfect volume. You could enjoy it and still have a good conversation without having to raise my voice. Every time I come with either my entire family or a night out with my husband, we are never disappointed.
