They have been just off the main interstate there for over 9yrs now. Appetizer: Fried Crawfish tails Main: Catfish & Shrimp combo platter Sides: Hush puppies, boiled & fried corn on the cob, fries, slaw. Dessert: No chance! Was too stuffed! This is a cajun joint so expect that sorta taste. Fish was good. Fried shrimp may have been the best I've ever had away from the coast. Fries are the perfect fry for a fish & shrimp combo platter. Hush puppies & slaw are a huge miss, but those crawfish tails & their dipping sauce stole the show. All of their dipping sauces were absolutely great. Boiled corn on the cob was better than fried, but they were both outstanding. Great stop on your way to Memphis or leaving from Memphis going northwest. Service was decent. Prob would have been more excited to see us if we didn't come 45 min before closing, but thats on us. It's got an old Backyard Burger vibe but w/TVs everywhere & servers. Got a good size outdoor patio for thats nice evenings w/no mosquitoes & less than 85 degree heat. The owner of this place also has another local restaurant just across the parking lot called Venue. I will be trying that out on my next trip thru there.

We really enjoyed the catfish basket for lunch which included 4 good-sized cornmeal-crusted filets that were perfectly fried and were moist and decently seasoned. The coleslaw was a classic mayo-based version that complemented the rest of the basket. The tartar sauce was good as well, and the fries were crispy. The basket also came with a Hawaiian roll and a single hush puppy that was tasty. The fried shrimp was plump and also nicely fried and juicy, and the accompanying cocktail sauce was decent as well. The original Coke with pellet ice in the classic red cup was very refreshing on a hot day. Definitely recommend trying it out!

Atmosphere was a redecorated Shoney's or something. What is disliked, a lot, was the service. Although other tables near me were served very courteously, the same waitress was a bit rude, but more so "no interested" in waiting the table. Flipped the menu down. Got the so so tasting scallops, but ZERO help after that. She never checked in on us, never asked us how anything was tasting, had to stop her twice, wants to ask for utensils, another time to ask for a refill, asking for refill is when she slapped our check down on the table and tried to walk off, and I say "excuse me, excuse me"... then weirdly when she brought my check, she reached over from the other Booth, not the side of our table, taped me on my shoulder and shoved my credit card and their seat up in my face. I always tip nicely, 20 to 25%. But this time I tipped accordingly and wrote a note to the manager. The waitress could not have been more disinterested in serving me as a bystander on a street. Too many other options with a short drive over to Memphis, I won't be back to this place. If you visit here and your waitress is mid 20s with extensions, literally touching the floor, you might want to ask for another server

The food however was honestly meh (in my opinion). I got a creole dish and to be fair my dish looked beautiful. The plating was 10/10 but the taste for me left something to be desired. After eating this dish I questioned if I even like creole sauce because it really just wasn't that good. If this is a preference issue, I honestly don't know. I also thought the charcuterie appetizer had a weird mix of items on it from club crackers, to meat and cheese, and random veggies. Not bad but just kind of a weird mix. My husband ordered the salmon and he said it was good, not the best he's had but it was good. Other friends of ours got the white fish among the many other dishes. I did have a salad with these apples on it which was incredibly yummy. I will say though my dish looked amazing some of the other dishes were not plated well. Not to nitpick but to want to be considered a more upscale restaurant which means charging guest more money than say a local Applebee's then knowing how to appropriately garnish or drizzle sauce to elevate at plate is important (see my picture of the chicken dish). All and all not my favorite restaurant but definitely not the worst!!

It also is a name that I cherish, and that means a lot to me because that was the name of my grandmother who I have a tattoo of on my hand. And when I realized that they sold merch with that name on there, I was even more excited and happy that I came here. I ultimately initially wanted to come for the experience and the ribs, but I got so much more. The live music was so entertaining. I really enjoyed my ribs, mac & cheese, and beans and my two cocktails were refreshing as well. Them ribs just completely fell off the bone and were so tender that you could eat them with a fork. The mac & cheese was seasoned and so creamy and I now understand why the waiter recommended that I order it as a replacement for the coleslaw because I hate coleslaw. The staff was really great. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
