Restaurants near Fifth Ward Playground

The food here is excellent! Josh is a great waiter, we ask to be seated with him everytime we come to the restaurant. Fried calamari very light great appetizer. This time I had chicken franchise. Very tasty, had leftovers. Hubby had shrimp scampi, he always has this dish. We also shared a Caesar salad, it is large enough to share.

Great as usual. It’s the only Asian restaurant we know of where the chicken with a flour coating dishes (as in General Tso’s or Sweet/Sour) actually has chicken in it, and is meaty and tender. Of course it costs more, but then again the portions are so large you can plan on a full dinner for tomorrow as well.

The ambience, the service, and the meal everything was exactly what we expected. The servers were all very pleasant and very helpful when needed, and very courteous. We will definitely be looking forward to going again.

The amuse-bouche was delicious: a squash puree, with cranberries, and a wonderful crumble -- could be an appetizer! Shrimp Cocktail is superb -- very large shrimp; good cocktail sauce. Caesar Salad tonight was very good: dark green lettuce, very good dressing, nice bread accompaniment. Spouse's crab cake was appropriately prepared and tasty. My bone-in rib-eye was very good. Ordered it medium-rare -- was just on the border, more approaching medium. The Buttered Mashed Potatoes side we had was delicious BUT for the size (small ramekin), the price $16.00, is outrageous!! It wasn't busy, so the noise level was not an issue.

Everything was perfect...the staff were professional and very interactive. Food was phenomenal. Top notch...a very enjoyable experience.
