| - I had not been here in years, but my husband and I were driving that way, and I suggested it because of fond food memories. He had never been here and was game for a new experience.
This place reminds me of a Waffle House with a bar, and I say that in the nicest way. It is small, narrow and long, with some tables, booths and half booths. We sat at the bar, and the bartender reminded us of a Waffle House waitress: sincere, efficient, and friendly. I can imagine that she would treat guests in her own home the way she treated us.
Good thing that I am writing this review and not my husband. He did not like his meal. He got the tilapia special, with lemon and capers. My husband said that fish was soggy with lemon juice, the broccoli limp and the rice dry. My meal, on the other hand, was good. I got the Cajun pasta sans sausage. The waitress did not give me grief about leaving out the sausage. I am a vegetarian that is trying to include some shellfish in the diet, so I allowed the shrimp. They were a little overcooked, and frankly, I think that I would have enjoyed the meal even more without them. The vegetables were tasty, and the sauce was spicy and delectable. Yum! Both meals came with a salad, and we both enjoyed the fresh greens and other vegetables. Plus, the croutons were crunchy and flavorful.
My husband and I both enjoyed the intimate ambiance and will return.
