4.5 (487)Pre-purchased bottle service packages are required to reserve parties of 5 or more; seating is limited and reservations are strongly encouraged.
This Houston supper club pairs live jazz and neo-soul with Cajun and Creole classics in a New York-inspired setting.
Description
The stage brings in local and national acts spanning R&B, blues, and live music sets. Hospitality carries a distinctly hands-on touch: the owner frequently works the floor directly, taking orders and checking in on tables alongside an attentive staff.
Hot Cajun and Creole plates share the table with mixed drinks, though food portions can skew compact. Entry is strictly 21 and over with a dress code standard in place.
