The kitchen focuses on scratch-made Creole plates that avoid pretense. The menu features shrimp po-boys on flaky bread and hot roast beef po-boys dripping in gravy, alongside spiced étouffée and umami-packed barbecued shrimp. Starters like fried catfish and salade verte pair with cold beers or balanced, liquor-forward cocktails. The small space fills up quickly, but the service keeps things accommodating, even portioning out shared dishes for tables to split. Meals here conclude with a small, complimentary dessert served with the tab.
