I get the caramel French toast, eggs, grilled salmon and its very well seasoned, I recently just tried the crawfish and grits and they were really good as well, as a simple guy I appreciate the taste and quality of the food here! I definitely recommend this spot my bros and I come thru and vibe here.”

Salmon Croquettes

$22.00

“This restaurant has been around for some years now and it is because the food is delicious and the customer service is Toptier. They had just closed and sent the chefs home for the day…but the owner was sweet enough to make me my request. I’m glad she did because I was then able to share those amazing salmon croquettes with my family. And they are a Hit. I will continue spread the word and support this pillar in the community. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK #TRUTH”
