The oysters are the best my wife ever had, and the shrimp were amazing as well. The staff are very friendly, fun, and talented. The atmosphere is good if the weather is not too cold or hot and you dont mind a sort of old food court feel, improved by the various New Orleans music around. Highly recommended.
