I was also told that it'd be 20 to 25 minutes, but it ended up being much closer to 40. Ordinarily that would bother me, but luckily on that day I had nothing else to do and everything was piping hot so I really couldn't complain. I do wish there was an easier way to find the menu online, I had to ask what all they had over the phone. For two plates my order came out to $38, and each plate comes with three sides and corn bread. I'd eat here again.

The gumbo was one of the best things I've tasted in my life, the crawfish etouffee-smothered fried catfish was amazing, and the fried chicken was some of the best I've ever had. The Mac and cheese was also thick, creamy and rich. Their chicken is juicy, steaming hot, and the skin is crispy in a way you wouldn't expect. It's light, airy, almost tempura like crunch. For dessert we ordered the bread pudding with praline sauce and it was the cherry on top. Everything was piping hot and fresh, flavors were on point, service was excellent even sitting at a busy bar, and the staff are all very kind and friendly.

Unfortunately, Yelp did not eat first with this one (I didn't get to take a picture of it). It came with a grilled cheese and potato salad! All the pricing online is accurate, there is street parking right in front of the restaurant with outdoor seating, and the food came out very quickly. I wouldn't really come to this restaurant to hang out with friends for a dinner since it's kind of small. But it's definitely one of those places that if you're in the area and wanting to pick up some soul food, you should DEFINITELY come here and get some.

Ordered DoorDash from HDK on the cred of the many positive Yelp reviews and it didn't disappoint. Tried two dishes, as I couldn't settle on one. The fried fish and shrimp were outstanding! Loved the dipping sauce and the seafood was cooked perfectly. The fish fillet was about an inch thick and so moist and flaky. Yum! Not sure I loved the fries with the crawdat sauce - they were a little salty. This ff dish kinda gives poutine vibes with the gravy. The Superdome was also tasty. I liked the fried fish better than the blackened, but the mashed potatoes and corn and sauce draped over the fish was rich and delicious. This fish was much thinner and a little chewy. I'd love a hybrid of Superdome using the thicker fried fish. Bread pudding was my dessert, warm and dripping in caramel/brown sugar sauce. I had to restrain myself from eating the whole thing! This was a perfect way to start my visit to the Big Easy.
