    We had the red beans and rice, shrimp and grits and jambalaya. The only complaints: jambalaya was a little cool and the shrimp were over cooked. Also, the oyster happy hour was at the bar and we weren't told until we sat at a table. Wife was not happy as this was not mentioned on the website. Otherwise, the oysters were huge and the food was great.

    Excellent food — the Fried green tomato appetizer was the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly prepared and with shrimp! Lovely environs, delicious food, excellent table and bar service.
