Taken here as a guest by friends who live in the area. Absolutely amazing food. Friendly staff treats their VIP customers like fam. I can see why this was our host’s go-to hotspot. Would come back ????

Joshua Drown

Live music , great crowd, and tasty Cajun food . If you arrive and there's a wait, try the cozy upstairs bar with first come first serve high-tops and outdoor terrace .

Nathaniel Redd

I brought some leftovers for work. I don't remember the name of this, but it was amazing. Shrimp , chicken , crawfish were in this dish. The drinks we're amazing as well . Order the Bloody Mary shot.

Lavonda Camelia

This is a MUST HAVE when you are in Charlotte. If you are vegan/vegetarian, please ask for the sautéed veggies over mash or rice because it's not on the menu .

Hale Hoeflick

Second place is not that bad. There is no replacement for New Orleans food while in New Orleans but everything is absolutely wonderful. Hard to pass up live jazz . It can be loud but well worth it.

Kelley S.

The Cajun pasta was flavorful and oh so good! The ambiance is awesome for an intimate nite with your significant other or with some good friends.

Andrea

Service was great, food was good and I enjoyed the jazz band . The only complaint I have is about the valet parking . The guy that took our car was not very friendly .

AUDIOMIND

It's obvious their food is cooked over a wood fire . Tasty. Every time I come here the mahi mahi never let's me down. The drinks are strong and the food is delicious. If you want music too go upstairs.

The New Orleans BBQ Shrimp is to die for! Be sure to get extra bread to sop up all that goodness in the bowl. Live Dixie Land Jazz 7 nights a week too.

Michael Lucas

Crawfish Etouffee was delicious, as was the Blackened Catfish .. The Red Beans and Rice was a little bland for my taste, and the beans were hard and undercooked.. Will return to try the Gumbo ..

Wendy Huber

The crawfish etouffee is to die for! The Voodoo beer is also wonderful when paired with the fried oysters with remoulade sauce .

April Smith

Everything on the menu is awesome. Especially if you like spice! BBQ shrimp , étouffée , shrimp and grits .. Can't go wrong. Live Nawlin's style jazz plays upstairs as you dine.

Brittany's Tips

Great for dates or big groups or take out. One of our favorites for a long time! Music is loud so if you want to talk try for downstairs.

Felicia Dorgham

Absolute best idea I've had yet for Hubby's birthday!!! Was very noisy but the overall ambiance was great and the FOOD was SUPERB!!!

Melissa Divel

Best steak especially with the diane topping. they give you big portions and everything is great.

jules

Great food, fantastic service, even though there was a big party and it was packed, we felt like the only ones there. We'll definitely return! Make reservations though.

Kristin???? Kemp

This place is so awesome! Great Cajun food ! Make sure you go upstairs and enjoy the live jazz music !

Nikki Palmer

The best cajun sauce I've ever had is in the BBQ Shrimp dish . It doesn't taste like BBQ at all but it's so amazingly good!

Antonia Logan

Fried Green tomatoes are my favorite! Shrimp and grits is probably the best in the area

Kelly Fosnow

Just be warned beforehand: if you plan on sharing an entree, there is a $5 "split fee" (I feel that's ridiculous) BBQ shrimp app was so-so, creole and key lime pie were delicious

Brandon Sides

Pricey but amazing. Get the Mahi-Mahi, and please put some toppings on that beast!

Katy Nystrom

Back room was nice and quiet . Food was wonderful!! Loved the bread pudding too.

Ian

Delicious food and such a good variety of drinks. Enjoyed the experience

April Smith

Musts: BBQ shrimp and étouffée ! Sit upstairs at the bar or in dining room to listen to the band!

Dan O

Crawfish Scampi is awesome! Crawfish tails Sautéed with garlic , white wine , scallions ,parsley and a "Bayou Blend" spices.

Brian L

Unbelievable crayfish scampi the atmosphere was superb and the service top notch.

Anissa Hunter

The food is good, but a bit pricey , staff busy, busy but nice!!!

Ayesha Evans

Crawfish scampi is awesome. They give you so much sauce perfect for the dipping the bread .

Trent Hopper

Brunch is the best but cheesecake is also so good.

AUDIOMIND

Get seated upstairs in the evenings and jam out with the 7th street Gator Band.

Jeff Pogue

The Bloody Mary mix is house made and awesome. Also. This is the only place this far I have found that makes a Sazerac ! It's even on the menu.

Debbie Yacenda

Skip the entree and go right to the Oreo cheesecake ! Oh my... So good!

Keith O'Brien

Fantastic, BBQ shrimp and the bread were amazing.

Nice spot. Great service, easy atmosphere.

Ashlyn Troutman

Best filet I've ever had (Diane style). So tender and moist!

Zac

Try the Shrimp and Grits - AH-mazing! Use the cayenne sauce on the grits .

Jeff Pogue

Just had their biscuits and gravy . Wow! Whoa! So good. Very original take on the dish. This is a must try. Brunch only.

Leslie

Great drinks but quality of the food was poor. I don't mind paying a little more for better quality but the prices here were outrageous for a giant plate of rice with bland sauce and frozen meat.

Anika L

Chicken Diane is amazing!! Skip the BBQ Shrimp .

Renae Gaither

Blackened Catfish is delicious & beans & rice

Todd Rademacher

Pork chops were excellent.

Lindsay Allen
