The service was a 10/10. My waitress was Nicole. She was warm, inviting, friendly, & attentive. The food presentation passed the eye test. The taste was on point! No extra salt or pepper required. The stuffed French toast did not need syrup! I will return to this restaurant.

Absolutely a must visit in Chicago for Cajun flavors!
We booked a reservation for a Friday breakfast. I recommend booking a reservation because although it was pretty empty when we got there it was full with a wait by the time we left. We came in & we were promptly seated. There’s a counter for takeout orders and both indoor and outdoor seating.
For drinks we ordered the uncles breakfast and the hurricane. Absolutely recommend the uncles breakfast it was amazing!
For food we ordered the spicy shrimp & grits, chicken andouille hash, and southern fried catfish. Everything was absolutely amazing! Great flavor & portion size and came out fast. Only critique would be too much onion in chicken andouille hash.
The service was great! From the host seating to our waitress to those bringing us the food everyone was friendly, fast, and efficient.
The combo of tasty food, good portion size, and great staff in a time when a lot of restaurants are struggling with one of the 3 makes this place a gem. We’ll definitely be back!

Amazing Breakfast/ Brunch Spot in the Heart of Downtown Chicago. First time visiting and i must say they didn’t disappoint. The waiter was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the Cajun Shrimp and Grits and it was doooo flavorful and plentiful with the contents of the dish. We also ordered the Crawfish Cakes and 2 Egg Breakfast and that too was very plentiful with portion size. Also, try the hurricane Mimosa and regular Hurricane they were very good. 10/10 recommended. Definitely will return next time im in Chicago.

Had a 2pm reservation. I ordered the Fried chicken breast, Mac and cheese, and last the red beans and rice. Food came out in a timely matter. Server did a great job of getting my wife and I order correct. If you are in the area, decent place to check out.

The home fries were amazing and the biscuit was so soft and flaky. The shrimp and grits were so flavorful with one if the creamiest grits I’ve ever had. The French toast was ok.

A delightfully enjoyable Louisiana/Cajun twist on traditional American breakfast and brunch fare. At a relatively affordable price point, this brunch spot hits the mark with its bold flavors, generous portions, and welcoming atmosphere. The balance between spice and savor is expertly executed, showcasing authentic Southern roots while still appealing to a broader palate. Service is friendly and efficient, and the ambiance strikes the right chord between casual and charming. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this place is well worth the visit. (I recommend the Key Lime or Buttermilk Pie as a dessert)
