Beautiful reuse of an old classic building, the wood ceiling, brick walls, old tile and mirror all add up to a nice space. But the noise, oh the noise! I felt like I was a victim of auditory assault!
Contemporary Southern Food made for an interesting menu but the "hearty" fish and shrimp jambalaya was more of a nice fish dish not at all a jambalaya (and shrimp were so shrimpy they were nonexistent.) Please don't call a dish something that's it's not. Best looking dishes of the night were companions' pork chop and the tomato tart.
Service needs some fine tuning. Small plates as appetizers came out at the same time as main course and drinks and dishes were randomly put down in front of diners. Finally, if you can't make separate checks but will take different credit cards for different amounts, then at least put the right amount on each card please.
With the same parents as Beckett's Table, I know this baby is going to work out the growing pains and will be an asset to the 'hood soon!
