On a recent visit to Mandeville, my local friends brought me in here for a pre-dinner drink. From…read morethe outside, it's just a small looking dive, but the inside is really cute. It's dark a lit with string lights. The area that was a wine store is now an event space, so you could have a group party or shower or something in there. They have a nice menu of drinks, some more elaborate than others. The bartenders were very friendly and offered to make anything I could think of. I opted for a old fashioned as we were just starting the night. It was pretty good. We decided to sit outside on a beautiful evening. I will definitely go back to check it out again on a return trip!

It's on…read morePontchartrain, the building is green and it sits back a little.(If you passed Old Spanish Trail- you went too far.) I said that it's unique because it is on the small side and whenever you go in there, it feels like you're walking into one of your relatives kitchen. People are just hanging out- talking, laughing and drinking! You need to go and see for yourself and by the way, the daiquiri's are awesome- Oh, I am talking about in the middle of the weekday or nights!Go, have fun and mingle I gave it a (4) only because I'm a female and believe me, those girls favor their male customers, but I love them anyway!

And that may sound pejorative - and it's not meant to be. They're a place to meet some colleagues after work. They're a place to hang out and enjoy a few cocktails and some good conversation. They're a place to pre-game. They're a place to grab one for the road, watch a game, take a time out. And they make the most of their admittedly smaller footprint. There is a nice little vibe going on here. Good tunes, friendly staff, smiling people. You should check it out.... And a shoutout to Mae who is awesome.

The term paradox comes to mind.) I like it here because they feature local bands on the regular. Some of them are outstanding and some are just ok, but I love supporting local bands, buisnesses and artists and any place that makes this a priority like Daiquiri's & Company does is ok in my book.

There is also a small dedicated bar area that also serves the restaurant. Service is both friendly and efficient, and although the somewhat small dining room can get rather crowded, it is tasteful and comfortably casual. Pat's offers fresh seafood, oysters, steak, ribs, salads, appetizers, and sandwiches. Service was a little slow, but the staff was dealing with a crowd. We both had Caesar salads with chicken and they were good. Price points were somewhat high on some items, but overall food quality and ambiance are good.

I saw the rowdy "kid" play area (and could hear them) I get the reviews complaining, however it really is a lack of parenting issue, not the restaurant. The signature drinks, once being a "western sunset" , menu says 10$ in a maybe 6 ounce plastic cup (smallest cocktail I've seen at a restaurant) ended up being 12$ each on the bill. That is why I'm deducting a star, it was 20% higher for each tiny drink than expected. Bartender was very nice woman. I would return here for the wonderful view and tasty burger. I wouldn't order a dinky drink again.

You also get to choose from a variety of sides. They give you a generous portion of the sides as well.

I highly recommend.
