The food was above average, but the decor and ambiance leave much to be desired. Very simple "bar-type" decor. The waitress was friendly however, which was nice.

The burger special was a good deal...only $5 for a burger. If they didn't have that, we would've left. Everything on menu is pricey. Decor is a little tacky, although the chance to write name on wall is cool. Wouldn't visit again.

When we first arrived at the restaurant there were questionable people standing outside but we went inside anyway. Inside was your typical bar setting. We had never had jambolya before, but it was good. Everything we had was good.

Nothing fancy, great prices, fun staff. Don't miss the crab legs and the Nitro Wings! The staff is trained to have some fun with you so get your server going. Drinks are served in Mason Jars and you can draw on hte tablecloth while you are waiting.

In the middle of the quaint downtown of Glenwood Springs lurks a taste of New Orleans. While the menu has fewer combinations than it used to (my only negative), the etouffe, jambalaya, gumbo and blackened redfish are still very authentic-tasting....and that means good. Formerly out in West Glenwood, the d/t location is much more accessible and um, safer after having... More

We make a point of eating here every time we're in Glenwood Springs. The gumbo is amazing, full of all sorts of great seafood, and the entrees are authentic New Orleans style, with generous portions. Service is always friendly and attentive. The combination of great food and relaxed atmosphere makes this our favorite restaurant in Glenwood Springs.
