RESERVATIONS HIGHLY RECOMMEND We did not have reservations and they kindly fit us in which took about 45 minutes, but this place was constantly busy so that was on us. The owner even sent us over some deviled eggs to apologize for the wait (which was appreciated but certainly not expected) The service was outstanding as well. The ambiance somehow straddles a line between high end and down home and manages to pull it off very well. The food itself was AMAZING! Probably the best food I ate during our trip to the Big Easy (which is really saying something because New Orleans has some seriously good food)

Beautiful rustic venue with reimagined menu items. The food rightfully so was a highlight, the gumbo was epic.

Stopped in for brunch with our friends as this is one of their favorite places. Alcoholic drinks were spot on. The bywater bloody was not what I expected but was surprisingly good. The BF had the summer lovin' and liked it so much he convinced others to get it. He had the chicken and waffles and ate every last bit other than the gravy. I had the Huevos Rancheros and although it was technically fine, I don't think I'd personally get it again because it just didn't feel like anything special. Great service. Only real down side was the juice. Although it was fresh squeezed, the size for the price just wasn't worth it for me.

A great spot to add to your foodie itinerary in N'Orleans! They offer a variety of Creole/Cajun cuisine with a modern twist that you'll love. My wife and I really enjoyed the fried green tomatoes for starters. Hear me out, I would give this a try even if you're not big on tomatoes since I imagine they use a delicious heirloom tomato. We also had the roasted duck hash and shrimp and grits. Definitely a must try

Finally was able to try this place for brunch! Their brunch menu has so many great options that I had a hard time narrowing things down. One of the ladies in our group agreed that we would order 2 entrees and share. My new bestie! LOL. Restaurant is a lot smaller than I thought it would be but it's a cute space. Waitstaff was very friendly and efficient. We started with a few of these little cornmeal biscuits with butter..delish! I was able to try the crabcake Benedict and the Oyster BLT. Crabcake benedict was fantastic! I liked that it was over spinach and a sauce instead of the English muffin. It helped to lighten the dish. The Oyster BLT was fine but could have used more seasoning. The oysters were fried pretty well. Overall it was an enjoyable experience.

Amazing brunch experience! Great food and service. The restaurant is casual but elevated and was the perfect place for brunch. The cornbread muffins were delicious. Our server, Chris, stayed on top of filling our waters and coffee with the glasses rarely getting below half full. We ordered the soup of the day which was a Thai coconut crab gazpacho. This was such a unique flavor and a cool item to try. I ordered the quiche of the day, and was excited to see we came on a day where it was vegetarian. The quiche was carrot, pea, and goat cheese. The crust was flaky and the quiche was so light and creamy. The side salad came with fresh shaved Parmesan. The cream cheese grits were perfect and the sweet potatoes came with fresh grated garlic which packed a flavorful punch. My husband had the shrimp and grits. They are sever head on but they provide a bowl for the peels. Overall a perfect brunch experience and great service.

Another delicious eat in New Orleans. My partner really fell in love with fried green tomatoes, thanks to this restaurant. We had brunch reservations in this very cozy spot, and had a wonderful time here. Service was top tier, fine dining level honestly. We ordered the fried green tomatoes which were cooked to perfection, and topped with ikura and some sort of aioli. We also got the roasted duck(?) sweet potato hash, and a gumbo that I'm forgetting the exact name of. I'm seeing some photos online of a blue cheese flan that I missed out on! Would love to try that next time.

One of the best meals I've had in NOLA in a long time. The space is cozy and our waitress was an absolute joy. We didn't have any starters but the corn bread and herd butter were perfection. I ordered the pork chop which was cooked to perfection and the broth was absolutely delicious. My dinner mates ordered the duck and filets and they were also very pleased. Of the desserts the tres leches and blue cheese flan really stood out the lemon tart was underwhelming. Will absolutely be back and take my visiting friends.

Hands down the best breakfast spot in New Orleans! May I dare say the best breakfast place that I have ever visited The service was phenomenal! Our waiters Louis & Perry really made sure we were well taken care of & had the most amazing suggestions for food & drinks. The restaurant itself is very elegant and bright. With a vibe that makes you feel right at home. The food was out of this world! The green tomatoes have a nice bite to them with a great sauce. But, in my opinion the Chicken & Waffles were the star of the show! The waffle was airy but yet sweet. The chicken was seasoned perfectly and really complimented the waffle. The grits were by far the best I have had in New Orleans & the Breakfast Sweet Potatoes were savory but yet sweet & blew me away! My partner had the Shrimp & Grits and thoroughly enjoyed them .
