Food was delicious. We had catfish & fried shrimp platter. Onion rings were perfect. Menu is heavy on crawfish dishes. Atmosphere is great. Wait staff friendly and knowledgeable. In spite of the crowd for families celebrating Grambling graduates, we never felt overlooked or had to wait for service.
