Love this New Orleans themed spot. Gorgeous decor and lighting. Paid street parking. I had the shrimp and grits (medium spice level) with an etoufee sauce. I enjoyed the etoufee sauce but LOVED the cheese sauce a friend ordered for theirs. I would definitely get the cheese sauce next time. The cajun wings were crispy and tasty . Our server was very attentive and efficient. There was no wait for our reserved table. Their bottomless mimosas come in different flavors and the passionfruit was my favorite. I'll definitely be back to check out their dinner menu and get some beignets!

This was a tasty Louisiana inspired restaurant. The jambalaya was jamming and so were the po boy and fries. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Music was good and kept the atmosphere bright.

Visiting Chicago and was looking for a place with great food, and an ambience to match. Once the wonderful greeter met and sat us, we waited for our waitress. It appeared that she was the only waitress on duty. I immediately ordered a cocktail, and my dining partner ordered hers shortly thereafter. While waiting for our food, which took a little while, I admired the quaint setup, but also noticed my partner never received she drink. Whether I waitress put the drink order in, or the bartender forgot...we'll never know why a drink took almost 20 minutes with only a few diners. The food was great, not hot, but flavored well. The biggest complaint is that 1. I had to pay an absorbent automatic gratuity, especially if the service doesn't match. 2. And most importantly, I ordered two old fashioned drinks and was charged separately for the bourbon and the old fashioned, which totaled almost if not, $20 a drink!!! Ridiculous!!!! While I enjoyed the dining experience, I most certainly did not enjoy being gouged!
