More on that later.\n\nWe started at the bar and the bar tender was super cool. He made a fantastic Sazerac, one of the oldest cocktails in the USA. The four of us admired the decor of the establishment in addition to the fun columns throughout that separated the patrons making it a more private experience. This place is in a basement and the columns separate everyone, different than all the open air structures these days.\n\nWe had reservations and were seated about 10 minutes late however we were flexible. The waitress was not very friendly and did not smile. She was making the motions. Likely tired because it was Badger Homecoming Saturday and they were busy. We were celebrating a birthday and asked if they did anything special. She said I don't know and can check. When she came back she said if you buy a desert, we can put a candle in it. What?? What restaurant does not do something for a birthday. Oh well, move on...\n\nEach of us DID enjoy our meal. We had the Crawfish Cheesecake for appetizer. It was like a cheesecake? Different and good. Two of us ordered separate specials and the other two ordered items off the menu. None of us could finish and we enjoyed leftovers the next day. The food was rich and heavy, comfort food like. If you are on a diet you'd need to be selective because no calories are spared here.\n\nIn summary a happy waitress and a little birthday treat and this place would be through the roof!"^^ .
