Presentation five stars actually, I haven't seen a better presentation than what they had here for drinks and food. Everything came out perfect. like first class presentation perfect!

We went on a Sunday night, party of 4. Atmosphere was nice, the odd holiday tree, the stamped wall…read moretreatment, the lighting fixtures, and the artpieces on the wall set a nice mood. You could tell that they were quite short-staffed. I felt sorry for the servers, as they were moving nonstop. It took a while for the waiter to get our order, and then to get the check to us. Their staffing situation needs to be fixed, and pronto. It really detracted from the experience. We had several appetizers. The bacon wrapped shrimp were presented in an entertaining way, hanging on a rack. They were delicious. The zydeco eggrolls were probably my favorite thing the whole night, excellent excellent excellent. I had a cheeseburger. It was a decent, but a bit too heavy on the salt. My date had the hot honey pepperoni pinsa; I tried a bit, it was great. The other couple dining with us had shrimp and grits, and the catfish. They enjoyed their dishes, complementing the food well, no complaints. All in all, a good meal. Just please fix your staffing situation, Lumora.

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.

Last night I ordered the salmon salad and OH MY GOD - that may have been the most delicious salmon filet I've ever had. It was perfectly seasoned and cooked to my preference. I usually order the tuna salad, which is also excellent. Last night I made a couple modifications to my salad (no candied pecans and no sugarcane vinaigrette), but when I received my plate I noticed the fresh berries and cheese were also missing. I mentioned it to my waitress and she immediately acted to fix it. I had my plate back in maybe two minutes. Things like that sort of go with the territory when you start requesting modifications, so I didn't blame her at all. Will be back. Always!

When you read the reviews below, most people know what this restaurant is and how it works. My…read moreresponse is less harsh about the service or it's overpriced charcuterie board concept. I have lived in BR for 6 years now. Many departments at LSU take guests there and in that time, Building 5 has done nothing to improve its parking lot. The restaurant sits underneath an overpass and the parking is pothole marked unpaved gravel. This means that there is no room for wheelchairs or accommodations for anyone who is differently-abled to get into the restaurant. The whole restaurant makes no room for handicapped persons. On the occasion I did get food, the food is slightly overpriced. All meats were cooked adequately but the food was lukewarm probably owing to sitting in the kitchen under the heat lamp than being delivered promptly. When I have gone, I regularly have to ask for refills on soda as I am the designated driver often for department functions. Servers pay you no heed if you do not buy alcohol. Because I go here because of academic reasons, I would barely go here myself. I've been here many times and found it wanting. It's an ableist place in its infrastructure. It's fine I'm atmosphere as a cocktail bar but would little recommend it to people I call friend.

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.
