First time guests. I was intrigued by the dinner options. The hostess recommended the seafood nachos. I ordered the crawfish and shrimp fettuccine. Well…..as I was chowing down, I discovered a fingernail in my food. The hostess recognized my shock and came over. She whisked the food and nail away…A manager came out and was apologetic. She offered another meal but I was scared to eat anything else. She offered to get me a dessert, she was trying her best. I ended up just leaving shaken up by the experience.

We saw all the reviews pointing to the all you can eat buffet in the casino so we almost missed out on this gem of a restaurant. The atmosphere was great and the money was reasonable to any other decent restaurant in LaFayette area. The crab “bisque” was more of a chowder than bisque, but the Ribeye…..oh my goodness. My husband and I are picky coming from Texas about handing out the word, “excellent,” when it comes to steaks. I don’t know what it is that sets their steaks apart, but it is a must try!! I underline a must! I am not crazy about crab cakes in the south either, as New England usually handles the best ones. They had huge lumps of crab and were cooked perfectly. The steaks were so excellent we plan on going out of way in future trips to make sure we try it again. The actual name of the restaurant has a cute historic story to it also.

I typically don’t post reviews (either good or bad) but this restaurant definitely deserves a poor rating. My husband and I live in Lake Charles. As such, we have access to some high quality restaurants that offer stellar food and service. Perhaps my expectations are too high, but the food in this restaurant is lacking in every way. I ordered the filet with asparagus and hollandaise sauce. My husband ordered the filet with crawfish cornbread with a wedge salad. The wedge salad was standard. It had a stong mayo taste but was otherwise ok although it could use a balsamic glaze IMO. Both filets were cooked to perfection but there needs some type of reduction sauce as it was just a piece of meat laying on a bare plate. The asparagus was cooked to perfection but they forgot the hollandaise sauce. My husbands crawfish cornbread was DRY DRY DRY….and the entire slice of bread only had two crawfish that we could identify. The wait staff was extremely friendly. Krystal was our server and she was great. The hostess was also extremely friendly. I really wanted to enjoy this meal but it left me wanting to go to the kitchen and teach the chef a few things. Get a new chef or revamp the menu or you will struggle to get repeat customers.

This gets one star strictly because our server was good. He even warned us of what not to order. I only wish his tastebuds were a little more refined. The food is horrible, tasteless and other similar adjectives. Save your pocketbook and your digestive system and avoid this one.

Another Covid casualty. The place is a shell of what it once was. What is left of the employees are good hardworking people. The place is clean but it’s a shame the business isn’t what is was. I can only hope things get better in 2021.
