They served me some of the best gumbo I've ever had. It was so delicious and the fish tacos were really good also. The service was good and so were the views from the second floor.

Rented an airbnb near by and this was a perfect spot to catch a late dinner. The employees were super helpful. They are seriously about maintaining social distancing. Food was good and drinks were also good. Family friendly restaurant.
