my goodness I was so hungry and looking for breakfast place found this in target plaza and so glad I did you can count on me will be there again

The Bananas Foster and fried green tomatoes are awesome. Very delicious!

BUT,

Ants! We were seated in the back room and there were ants on the table, and on the paper towels. I turned to look to my left and a swarm of them were coming out of the wall and crawling on both sides of the molding. A worker came and wiped them away with a wet rag but they just came back in full force not two minutes later. I switched seats in the booth with my hubby to the other side of the table. I looked to my right and what do you know, another swarm of ants having a heyday next to me and ants still crawling again on the table. I did not enjoy sharing my breakfast with these critters. Don't eat against the wall in the back room is my only suggestion. Hopefully they'll take my advice and get rid of them permanently before the next customers come in. They were crawling along all the side moldings around the room.

If you only go here once that was probably enough. This Bayou themed restaurant was straight out of a Quentin Tarantino movie. The interior was kind of dark in one room I thought I was going to play a game of Russian roulette straight out of the Deer Hunter. Or gamble.

The people were very nice, very friendly. The menu was different to say the least. I had the hollandaise crabcakes over English muffins with side of peppers and onions. It was full of taste, maybe a little fishy on the crabcakes, but it wasn't terrible. I tasted the sweetest strawberry crêpes that tasted like they came out of a can. However, again I had to remind myself this is a chain type of restaurant.

After the meal which felt very heavy. I had to take a nap because I feel I was overly intoxicated by sugar. So warning if you were diabetic, probably stay away.

We were seated right away on a Sunday morning around 10am. Drink orders were taken right away as well as our food order. Our server was very nice and helpful. We ordered our food and waited. Waited a bit longer than normal but the food started to trickle out. My husband and I got our food first and the two kids entrees were taking a bit to arrive. Kids' food finally came out missing a side and that side took forever to come out. As nice as our waiter was, it would have been nice if he came around more often to check up on us, refill drinks, etc. We ended up ordering more food because the kids were hungry. That order came out before the missing side. Sounds like staff shortages in the kitchen. There does not seem to be a shortage of staff in the dining area.

Parking wasn't an issue. The lack of wait was great. We would still come back even with the hiccups. The food is dependable. Nothing amazing about it. Just good American breakfast.

My boyfriend LOVES coming here. I wish that was an understatement, but he complains to me that I introduced it to him (because he's gained weight around the middle). The beignets are absolutely divine if you haven't had them! They come with a huckleberry, strawberry, and peach jam as well as a vanilla pudding(?). It is absolutely worth it for the calories.

When I come, I normally order the catfish as it's difficult to find, and even more difficult to find if there's creole cooking to go with it.

The staff are always incredibly friendly and so adorable. The ambiance is nice, I like the artificial tree in the middle of the restaurant. The only thing I'd add to fit the theme would be some bluegrass music. The restrooms are clean, which is always a plus.

Fair warning, it is very popular, so there can be a bit of a wait, especially if you come during peak hours (brunch).

We visited this establishment for brunch on a Sunday and were pleasantly surprised that the wait time was not excessive. Upon being seated, our server promptly attended to us and swiftly provided our beverages. Regrettably, the culinary offerings fell short of expectations, lacking in both flavor and overall quality. Additionally, the air conditioning was set at an uncomfortably low temperature, creating an unpleasant dining environment.

Split chicken fried steak breakfast plate with hubs. Generous portion. Everything tasty- eggs were less than lukewarm though.

Waitress appeared rushed but served our needs. Southern vibe with decor aplenty a plus. Prices reasonable.

This is a cute place with very friendly staff! The staff were excited to explain the menu and point out the specials and their favorite dishes. The decor on the inside is impressive and fun. Try the beignets and fried green tomatoes! Those were the stars of the order! ! Was expecting more spice in the chicken and crab cakes but otherwise cooked well and flavorful.

Found this place while we were on our way home after a visit in San Diego off the 15 freeway. We went on Sunday around noon and it was very busy, but we only waited about 15 minutes to be seated. Staff was friendly and the interior definitely gives you the Bayou feel. I ordered the Cajun omelette with the creole sauce on the side. The food portions are plenty and food tasted great. The huckleberry muffin is a must try. Overall loved this place.

Excellent restaurant based on Louisiana Cuisine. A step up from most chains. However the portions are so large that most people take half of their food home. Can't be good for internal finances. Lots of different things to try on the menu. If you go, you won't be disappointed.
