I absolutely love the vibe of this restaurant! It reminds me of a New Orleans French Opera House! They even have an in-house psychic. There is seating on the patio which is always packed and there are also party rooms and seats inside. I really like how the inside seating looks like a psychic's tent - it's very cozy (not to mention perfect for date night).
On weekdays they have 1/2 price apps from 4 - 6:30PM. I would highly recommend the calamari! It's a very generous portion for an app which is great for sharing (or you can order 2 and not share ;D). They also bottle their own hot sauces which had some good heat (but not burning heat) which went very well with the calamari.
We ordered the gumbo, steak (rare), jambalaya, calamari and picked okra from the tapas menu. The calamari and jambalaya were definitely the highlight of the meal though there was a piece of hair in our calamari. It took a while for us to flag down a waiter to tell them because it was so busy but when we were able to get their attention, they were very apologetic and quick to replace our dish.
As for the steak, well, I'm from Alberta so nothing can ever be as delicious as our good ole AAA Alberta steaks fresh off the bbq! But this one was alright. One thing I did like about it is the fact that when we ordered it rare, it actually came rare and not medium rare.
Overall it was a very pleasant experience (besides the hair) and I would really recommend the calamari. So delicious!
