Ange M: Squid Ink Pasta, Octopus app, and Kale side - fantastic!!
Kate Lee: Favorite pizzas: clam and the wild mushroom. Octopus carpaccio was probably the freshest appetizer I've ever eaten. Tartufo is the perfect chocolate dessert.

Gwendolyn McIntosh: Fried snapper, duck, calamari and mango shrimp fried rice are delicious. I did not like their terriyaki dishes unseasoned. Happy hour is everyday. Some dishes and drinks are reduced in price.
Gabriel Hayes: The fried calamari is tasty
Gabriel Hayes: Has a good list of special sushi rolls. Really enjoyed the New Orleans roll. Made with Crawfish, avocado and crunchy inside, snow crab and spicy tuna on top with wasabi tobiko and eel sauce.

Stephanie: If you're getting an app: octopus and tuna tartare are to die for! Can't go wrong with the red snapper! Great service, amazing food!
Mypat Bobo: Red snapper was very good, service was perfect. But the ravioli was the peak. You must try that ravioli, heavenly good...
Jessica Toliuszis: The warm biscuits & butter are incredible....unless you hate America and carbs.
Boo Bear: Food is good. Had steak tacos and calimari. Nothing special though. Maybe the drinks are better.
Michael Upole: This is a cool bar. The servers are all pretty nice and attentive. The chips and salsa were good! I recommend the chicken sandwich... It was good!
Ryan Eugene: Fun bar/restaurant near end of the Mardi Gras parade route. Fun venue for people looking for a young professional crowd and need a later parade viewing time. Queso, margs, and shark attacks popular.
