Our server Bridget was attentive and engaging. The food was fantastic! We split several things including the caviar chive dip, truffle fries, filet trio, and crab stuffed lobster. All of it was delicious. The cocktails were perfectly executed and there’s a good wine list. There was a fun piano player and the volume wasn’t overpowering. We will definitely be back!

Very Loud restaurant. Food service is generally slow (we eat here a few times a month for the gumbo.) Waitress forgot 3 things we ordered. Oh well. We live nearby or we probably wouldn't go there.

When my husband and I travel, we seek out an Eddie V’s due to the consistency in food, atmosphere, and service. This location was everything we expected and more! Our waiter, Torron, was very helpful and friendly. The manager made us feel important by coming to our table to visit and make sure we were taken care of.
