Atmosphere(8)
Bright & colorful pictures and murals. Can be loud & crowded on the weekend.
Menu(8)
No French food here. Good mix of all standard barbecue. Ribs, poultry & catfish are very good.
Portions(8)
Right on the mark. Ample appetizers can be shared. Meals will fill you but not to the belt loosening point.
Appetizers(9)
Excellent appetizers. Seasonal Oysters on the half shell were very good. Cajun Popcorn -spicy- Fried craw fish tails superb.
Food and Drink(8)
Huge rack of very tasty Louisiana Style pork ribs. Top notch barbecue sauces brought to table. "Po Boy" sandwich tastes as interesting as it sounds.
Desserts(8)
Not on menu. Worth asking waitstaff about. Bourbon Pecan Pie and simple bread pudding the best of the bunch.
Service(10)
Fast (not rushed)) and flawless. Just like the Phantom likes it.

Dining room spic & span. Bar crowd on weekends brings in some mess.

Good, fingerlicking food. Dinners $13-$14; Sandwiches $5-$6.
