Great service! Only thing is I requested a seat upstairs by the window but was seated downstairs in the patio area. When I made the reservation online via OpenTable the only two options for reservations were the bar and patio and I chose patio, but I added the note for my seating preference in the additional comments sections. Day of I called to confirm my seating request and was told I couldn’t get that seating because I chose patio online.

I arrived late for my reservation but, was still accommodated. The music was not so loud that you could not have a conversation. Our server David was great. The overall customer service was a 10/10. The food was soooo delicious. I ordered catfish, lobster Mac n cheese & okra. My friend ordered greens & they were really good. I’m new to Dallas & will definitely bring every visitor here.
