The shrimp etouffee is incredible. I've gotten it 3 times and it's better everytime. If you grew up eating grits, the shrimp ones here will change your life. They are SUPER creamy. Fried okra is nice and crunchy and served with this yummy aioli type sauce. I thought the jambalaya was okay. It was extremely flavorful, but just didn't do it for me because it didn't taste like home. I had the same problem with the fried green tomatoes. Here they serve them slathered in this overly salty (this is coming from someone who loves salt) sauce which you need to eat with a fork. It's just not how I was used to having them so it didn't satisfy that craving for a crispy chip-like appetizer. Butternut squash pasta was pretty disappointing... Chicken was overcooked, butternut squash was undercooked, and it was kinda bland.
