Menu Deep Dive

Deeply rooted in Louisiana culinary traditions, this selection showcases classic New Orleans and Gulf Coast seafood dishes. From raw and chargrilled oysters to gumbo and stuffed flounder, the offerings celebrate the bounty of local waters. While seafood takes center stage, the menu also incorporates regional flavors in items like BBQ shrimp & grits and Andouille gumbo, creating a comprehensive Southern coastal dining experience.

Fresh Louisiana oysters get a smoky kiss from the grill before being drenched in tangy lemon-garlic butter. A sprinkle of parmesan, oregano, and herbs adds a savory crunch to these juicy shellfish delights.

Succulent crab meat is plucked from the claws and prepared three ways: chilled for a refreshing bite, sautéed in a creamy, spice-infused sauce, or crispy-fried with tangy cocktail sauce. Each version highlights the sweet crab, paired perfectly with a warm, flaky cheese biscuit.

Tender flounder envelops a rich, succulent crab meat stuffing, creating a perfect harmony of seafood flavors. Choose between a crispy fried exterior or a delicately broiled finish to complement the moist, flaky fish.

Succulent chunks of jumbo lump crab in a velvety cheese sauce, with a subtle hint of sherry adding depth. The golden, bubbly crust gives way to a rich, creamy interior that melts in your mouth.
