I can understand why it's a James Beard Winner! The corn fritters are super yummy! We were given a mixed berry shake and that was so refreshing, creamy and delicious, that I could have drank a gallon of it! The servers were very friendly! The ambiance is family oriented and very comfortable! What a wonderful place and hope to be back soon for more chicken, corn fritters and mixed berry shakes!

We had a blueberry and then a pineapple/ caramel shake... like an upsidedown pineapple cake! I tried the chili fries bc I always want them... and they were exactly what I expected- so much chili and cheese everything was soaked The fried chicken was delicious and seasoned just right. Big juicy pieces. Coleslaw was sweet. I ordered the Sriracha chicken sandwich but I took it home, too much to eat! I would definitely go back. It was a value for the cost and the staff was the best.

She came back 21 mins later!! I try to give servers a break when a place is busy but the place was thinning out. She was not friendly, looked as if she just did not want to be at work. I have visited this place 3 other times in the past and it has not been the quickest each time but this time was by far the worst! Food was okay. Calamari was delicious. Crowd was fair, loud w the band but that's expected.

We were looking for an off the beaten path place for dinner and found this gem. We were immediately…read moreseated and brought ice water. This is not an "Americanized Mexican Restaurant " it is authentic Jalisco cuisine roots with a fusion flare created by a talented kitchen staff. The dining room is open , airy and crisp. It definitely has a vibe of sophistication without pretentiousness. The soup was incredible. I don't know how to describe it effectively. The toast accented with the sun-dried tomatoes and a small sprinkle of pine nuts was the element that made this item memorable. My son reported the chicken sandwich to be excellent as well. We ere not planning on getting dessert but we looked at the menu and decided to split the cinnamon roll. OMG , try this dessert, you will not likely be disappointed. Anchorage has a little gem of a dining experience... I hope this review helps more locals and tourists to discover this fine establishment.

We are on vacation here and people said in anchorage must try couple of the seafood and tiger…read moreshrimp is one of the food that you must try ... .. so find this place with 4.4 ... and when we look at the picture is so very nice . So we expecting here must outstanding the seafood should be fresh because it's nearby ocean . So we find this place have tiger shrimp. In Google shows very nice picture and very attractive so we keep a chance to there . But we feel disappointed. We ordered tiger shrimp but not sure is that a tiger shrimp it feels like regular shrimp and the sauce are tasted but too salty . We order a Jambalaya W/Chicken & Andouille um definitely not recommend . Service : nice service with great smile. Ambiance : antique I can see the owner put a lot of time to decoration this cozy cafe . Love it . If you are looking for seafood, I'm not recommend in this place ... maybe something else or just a drink that would be cool.

I do travel a lot and try to eat at some nice places. This one I would recommend to everyone and make a reservation if you want to enjoy. I had pork belly appetizer amazing and the king crab mac and cheese the best I've ever had hands down. Kerry was great and service was great.

I will say they are 5/5 for friendliness…read more But for Cajun food they are lacking. What they did good was their French fries and nuggets which their fries are battered. For a kids meal this is a really big portion. For Cajun food it lacked flavor and was kind of just weird. The red beans were bland, Lacked real seasoning, salt and had chunks of carrots. The gumbo was alright but not good or exceptional by any means. I did like that the okra was fresh enough to not be slimy. But it had no spicy appeal, and lacked the holy trinity. It also wasn't oily which was nice. The jambalaya was outright bad. It tasted sour and just really off. It was also like a soup instead of a rice dish. To top it off there were chunks of shredded cheese in it. Crab cakes were alright but the dressing for it was incredibly mustard seed heavy. My husband was a fan of the sauce, but I really wasn't. The buttered bread was good. I can't foresee myself coming back just because it lacked the bold flavor I expect from Cajun food and tasted pretty weird. If I ever gave it another shot I'd probably try a poboy.

Here is a gem in a far off place from the basis of its inspiration. I'm on a strict diet and could…read morenot try many things and I don't like wasting money so I got a small dish that I could tolerate eating. The BBQ shrimp it was. Now anyone who knows about this dish understands it's not the same type of BBQ like we do ribs and chicken. This is a butter sauce that's seasoned to creole standards and served with French bread. Typically it's served in shell however these were peeled and served in the sauce. I'm not mad at this as I didn't have to get messy to peel the shrimp and dip the sauce etc. it was nice to eat it with a fork and already doused in the sauce. The bread was easy to dip and it wasn't salty. I'd love for my New Orleans born friends to make the trip in order to check this place out. I went early in the day shortly after opening so it wasn't salty not crowded at all and the host whisked me to a table with a good view for people watching. They were able to handle greeting, serving, and bartending between the 2 of them and not lose any grace or standards of service. I explained my dietary restrictions and the young lady was happy to navigate me through the menu. They have a full bar that I'm interested in delving into but I had to work later that day so water and soda were sufficient.

Really welcoming and I liked how the bar area is central to the dining area. I ordered the halibut tacos with rice and beans. It was really good except the fish needed salt and the veggies on the bottom make the tacos soggy and they fell apart easily. I recommend the veggies on the top so the corn tortillas can handle it. And toast the tortillas. The rice was good and I liked the toasted flavor. It was a solid place to go. The staff was so friendly.
