Went once before a show at the Saenger. Dont think we ordered a ton, but the food was fine. Not memorable in a good or bad way, I’d go back.

Yep. Been several times enroute to the Seanger.
A limited menu but we've enjoyed everything we had.
I looked at the menu online before going and and wasn't accurate.
A little noisy.

Go!

And be sure to make a reservation.

We've been several times before shows. Food has always been good. Order the cauliflower app if they have it on the menu. Drink menu is pretty good as well.

Went once before a show at the Saenger. Didn't like the hanger steak b/c it had a weird fish sauce sauce on it. Don't remember the rest of the meal. Just the bad steak stands out in my mind.

Excellent meal

it was packed (as was the whole area) but comfortable and the service was outstanding. We had a ceviche and four tapas including tempura cauliflower, pork arepas, Brussels’ salad and crawfish queso. Pitcher of sangria and flan for dessert. $130 with tip

if you are going to a show at Saenger, Joy, Civic, etc this is a great option
