When food is sky high in price, it had better be good. Actually, it should be acceptional, ground breaking, innovative. Not here. Yes, it was good. Pedestrian? You bet. And oh, yeah, everything is a la carte. Who do these people think they are? Brace yourself for the decor----it hurts the eyes.

This restaurant is made by its interior. The wood floors, wood panels, and mardi gras beads really make for a great atmosphere. The food is very good, but expect to pay high prices. I have eaten here three times, and the first visit was by far the best....not to say that the other two were bad, just simply not quite... more
