The food had actual temperature heat coming off of it. Not because it was spicy but it it was that fresh I should say. Could not find one thing wrong with the meal the service the atmosphere.
Super yummy food, on a fairly limited and tight menu. The shrimp poboy was delicious and the special fries with parm and shallots were incredible, the chicken gumbo definitely has a bite to it, and the cheese curds are the best curds we've ever had. The cider came in a nicely frosted glass. The food came quick, the service was good, the price was decent, the vibes when you walk inside are cool and funky, with some fun art, cool colors, and some interesting seating choices too! Would definitely come back when we are in the area as this was a hit for both of us. Oh- and pretty easy parking too!
So cute! Delicious food, hot chicken Ceasar is amazing. Catfish was hot and perfectly cooked!
I don’t if I could describe how good the food was here. The king bread pudding cake was amazing it doesn’t look appealing but tastes amazing almost like a Cinnamon Toast Crunch cake. I had the avocado toast with added bacon that’s was very filling and probably a must add bacon the protein helped. Get the garlic mayo sauce.
Fun little place downtown Salem. New Orleans vibe. Good food. If you're in the mood got to try the hurricane on ice. Very tasty.
The atmosphere was amazing! The interior design was so peaceful! The waitress was so nice and handled all her table’s amazing! The food was amazing and was kinda quick! The one thing that could be better was a little so much sauce on our burger but that didn’t stop the food from tasting amazing! I would recommend going! The price was goof for me and what I was looking to pay! I would also say they have very interesting food options for sure got me by surprise! Over all was amazing
Shrimp and grits were stupid good! I told the server it was so good I could have bathed in it! Perfectly cooked shrimp, silky smooth grits and the gravy, slap my knees! Whenever you are ready to open your next location, PLEASE consider expanding to Minneapolis so I don't have to buy a plane ticket to enjoy your food again! Also, I did not need them, but the beignets, dear Lord Almighty! I have not had them so hot and fresh since I was last in New Orleans! We are talking legit Louisiana cuisine people! Well done chef! I will be back the next time I visit for sure!
Daniel provided great service. The food was outstanding... one of the best fried chicken sandwiches I've ever had! Most importantly, the beer was ice cold! The great outdoor seating provided a great opportunity to sit and bask in the sunshine, and people watch!
