So sad to give this place less than five stars. Let me be clear it wasn't the food. If I was reviewing only the food it would surely earn five stars.
I've been coming here since I was a kid and have never received such poor service as I did yesterday evening. I asked a question about a dish prior to ordering and the server looked at me like I was crazy for even asking the question. Seriously? I just wanted to know if the BBQ shrimp had cheese grits or regular grits. I don't think that to be an unreasonable question.
After the meal, our server basically ignored us. A rather large table had come in and our server proceeded to take their drink order and serve it without getting us our check. I had to walk to the bar and ask him for our check. He proceeded to slam down the pen and curtly tell me to have a nice evening.
I have never received such rude treatment at this wonderful restaurant ever. New Orleans has too many great restaurants with servers who get it right. Don't waste your time coming here and receiving poor treatment. Go to Katie's down the street instead, I know I will be.
