Large menu on the wall greets you.. staff were friendly and helpful. They take orders as you enter, give you a receipt and you're free to sit where you like. We ordered a large grilled shrimp salad and a Coney dog. Both came fairly quickly. Our orders were the large number on the top of our receipt, therefore so not throw away your receipt. My warm salad was actually really good. I was expecting cool grilled shrimp but it seems they grill when ordered. Very generous with shrimp. Yum The Coney dog was delicious, warm, saucy and very satisfying.

We started with the upside down chicken Caesar salad with fries. Delicious. Fries could've been hotter but the salad was the star. A meal on its own but i love that red fish so much. So seasoned, beautiful meaty fish, mmm. The service was wonderful and the sweet tea was delicious. I will always come here if I'm in town!

as a visitor to Monroe, Louisiana, this restaurant was a highly recommended place. The restaurant…read moreitself was very large with a nice decorated bar. The music playing was very fun and the workers were extremely welcoming. However, given that it's near the river, it would be nice if they considered having outdoor tables, but it doesn't seem like there is much to see either way. We all got various cocktails, and I would highly recommend the lemonade if you really like something sweet. My table and I shared the duck wraps. they were filled with cream cheese jalapeño, and was wrapped in bacon. It was slightly sweet, which I didn't entirely prefer, but it was still very tasty and a unique dish that I would recommend everyone to try. I personally got A Burger and it was much larger than I thought it would be. It was very tasty, but it didn't have much sauce so it was slightly dry. The rest of my table got various seafood dishes, and they had very large portions. They all mentioned how well seasoned everything was. The one caveat of this restaurant was that everything took so long to get to our table. our waitress also didn't come check on us after delivering our food until it was time to pay, which was unfortunate.

The Catfish was good, crispy and they gave A LOT as well shared this one. The sides were not worth getting. We are from STL so we are used to onion , pickle and a slice of white bread - that would've made the meal a little better. I gave it 3 stars because I'm not sure about the rest of the options but the catfish is for sure worth going for and we will be back! The service was also fine, nothing great or terrible .

The staff was very welcoming and playful with us when we entered. It reminded me of a small cafe in my hometown and the atmosphere was the same! My parents both had sandwiches, the roast beef and the Philly cheesesteak. My kids had the mini corn dogs and chicken nuggets. My kids are very picky eaters but both cleaned their plates! I intended to try the shrimp poboy, but the burger caught my eye. So I had the cheeseburger and added bacon. My parents and I got gravy and let me tell you it was the awesome! We enjoyed the sandwiches so much that we ordered 3 shrimp poboy's to take home and they were just as good as if we ate them in the restaurant. And before leaving, we all got some of the homemade ice cream.. so good!! Next time we're passing through or in town, we will be stopping here!!! 10 out of 10 highly recommend!!
