Who doens't like a free meal, but it's a pretty average place. I always think they're going out of business as they constantly have a groupon deal.

I haven't been enough to recommend anything in particular, but looking at the menu I would probably order the rabbit dish.

Knowing my friend it is a groupon place for sure but hey, fun anyway. Just hope the experience is nice for my lady, she'll do the steak I am sure medium well and will think it is marvelous!! Noticed they have a Tommy's plug on their website, do they have anything to do with them I wonder?? Personally I miss Bistro at Maison Deville!! Reminds me I need a Crepe Nanou trip too.

Same owners.
I ate there last year and actually quite enjoyed it.
I had the Gulf Cardinal and thought it was fantastic.
The place was fairly empty, but overall found it a good experience. Would go back.

Pretty good eats. As far as the group on thing, they've been doing that for years, won't be going out of business anytime soon.

Tried to go last weekend. Due to the weather they've pulled the seating from outside. Its always packed now so had to settle for La Thai. (Which I still enjoy)

Good luck. It was never great but the decline was noticeable my last visit. I wouldn't return even with a Groupon. Let us know how it goes.

Overall it was surprisingly good and we'll worth the trip. Apps had were scallops and sweetbreads, both excellent. Not clancys sweetbreads but very tasty. Special rib veal chop was as good as I have had anywhere and that is one of my fav dishes. Duck was on point as was special red snapper. I would keep it in a monthly rotation for a while yes and oh yes,excellent sazeracs!
