I am usually a creature of habit when I find something I love, and the Sweet Chili Shrimp Bowl has…read morebecome my go-to lunch order. In fact, I went back twice in one week just for this bowl. For $14.99, you get sweet chili shrimp, avocado, cabbage, rice, mango salsa, cucumber, and lime. Everything tastes fresh, and the combination of flavors works really well together. The shrimp have just the right amount of sweetness and heat, while the mango salsa and lime keep the bowl light and refreshing for summer. I ordered the ranch on the side because I wanted to control how much dressing I used. The bowl already has plenty of flavor on its own. What keeps me coming back is that it is filling without leaving me feeling sluggish for the rest of the workday. It is a nice alternative when you want something lighter than a burger but still satisfying enough to carry you through the afternoon. The atmosphere is family-friendly, the service has always been quick during lunch, and the restaurant is consistently clean. Several coworkers also recommended the Southwest Chicken Bowl, so that is on my list to try next. If you are looking for a fresh lunch option that does not feel overly heavy, I would definitely recommend giving this bowl a try.

Came on a Sunday specifically for the buffet. I've heard so many good things I couldn't wait to…read moretry. When you walk in there is the regular menu as well. You pay for the buffet and it includes a drink and then you can seat yourself. They had some really nice selections, from red beans and rice, gumbo, grilled chicken, mixed veggies, crawfish fettuccini, grits, and a couple other dishes. For dessert, bread pudding. Everything was good and full of flavor. The place was relatively empty, so it was quiet. There was a lab dog roaming around, at first I thought he was someone's service dog, but since it was roaming around, obviously not. While I do love animals, not someone's pet in my feet while I'm eating.

But it…read moreseems Friday is karaoke night, and the hostess told us they didn't have outdoor seating (although there is a huge deck outside with lots of picnic tables, and a bar and lots of stools lined up overlooking the river). But no dance floor and no outdoor seating. Well, anyway, we looked over the menu and decided to try the buffet. There was some good stuff there, and some mediocre. Apparently, the locals love it. They were coming in pretty thick by the time we left. Lots of fried seafood options (including alligator, soft shell crab, and frog legs), boiled shrimp, baked catfish, flounder, and a lot of other meat options. You don't see sauce piquant very often, so I had to try the deer sauce piquant from the buffet. It had good flavor, but not much "piquant." Had to add a little Crystal hot sauce. And the meat was tough and chewy. Needed a few more hours in the pot. The flounder was very good. Best thing I tried. The "Cajun style pork" was good, too - chunks of pork and smoky andouille with pineapple and oranges. Very good. The frog legs, fried shrimp, boiled shrimp, and alligator were all good, too. The fried catfish was muddy and dirty tasting (hate when that happens). If you're hungry, this is a nice place to get your fill of south Louisiana specialties - I could make an entire meal of the frog legs and Cajun style pork.

We almost gave up on trying to eat here because parking was terrible. It's located in the downtown area and we circled the area several times before finding a parking spot. We got inside and were immediately greeted and seated. We looked at the menu and decided we'd try as much stuff as we could so sharing was the best option. Wings, egg rolls, shrimp, smoked Gouda soup, kids chicken tender meal. We wanted to try an actual entree but knew it wouldn't get touched. Everything was amazing, except the egg rolls were just decent they were just cheesy. Even their house ranch was good. The chicken tenders were big and seasoned to perfection. Too bad my kid is picky, I had to eat it for her. we both got mules from the Mardi Gras menu and they were pretty good. Our server was just okay. He didn't check on us very much at all. We really enjoyed our food and were glad we decided to wait around for a parking space.

Pretty dope Italian spot in Hammond! OpenTable brought me and fellow teammates here for a couple…read moreteam dinners. Located in the downtown area of Hammond, this may be my favorite restaurant in the area and for good reason! The interior has the right amount of lighting to give an intimate feel and there's plenty of indoor seating where tables can be pushed together for large parties. The bar area is also comfy if you're looking to pop in for a glass of wine or a cocktail. Speaking of which, there's plenty of wine by the glass and featured bottle wines. It doesn't have as expansive of a bottle wine menu like other Italian spots but they don't need to as they offer about a dozen wines each from the USA and from the Italy/Spain/Argentina regions. So you'll find whatever you need to suit your tastes. And then there's cocktails. All the classics (Cosmopolitan, Manhattan, Old Fashioned) are here with some Italian favorites like the Negroni. The popular ones amongst us were the Limoncello Spritz (think of a vodka sparkling lemonade), the Espresso Martini, and the Basil Cucumber Gimlet. Tasty and pretty presentations! As for eats, the shareables that are must-orders are the Italian Meatballs (served in polenta w/ spicy tomato sauce), the Calamari, Crispy Brussels Sprouts, and Caprese Salad. These always made the table whenever we were here; the meatballs and brussels sprouts being the ones people couldn't stop eating. The turtle soup is also a good first course if you're going light. It was my first time having turtle soup and I enjoyed the heck out of it! For pastas/entrees, it depends how heavy you want to go. The pastas that we loved were the Fusilli and Casarecce. The Fusilli has a cajun spicy tomato base w/ shrimp, italian sausage, basil, and mushrooms; an excellent combination of ingredients for a delicious pasta dish. The Casarecce is more simple using a parmeson garlic cream sauce and a pan-fried breaded chicken breast on top. For entrees, the pork osso buco, duck breast, and diver scallops were all wonderful. The osso buco especially being super tender was a crowd-pleaser. They also have a filet mignon special w/ a fried potato cake and asparagus garnish finished in a red-wine demi glaze; this special was ordered by several people each time and had all of us oohhh'ing and ahhh'ing every time it was delivered. The filet is super tender and the potato cake is a great complimentary side to it. For dessert, we usually share the house cheesecake which has chocolate chips and caramel with a cookie crust; a perfect way to finish off the meal. That's if we save room for dessert! This spot is a must-visit and a place we plan to frequent whenever we're in Hammond. They also have a lot of gluten-free options in case you have a gluten intolerance. Do yourself a favor and check this spot out; you won't regret it!
