Good food, but hard to get to!: Decent food, but other issues present logistical problems. The location is very tricky to get to, and devoid of any easily-viewable sign in which to help you. We almost gave up and had to call for directions. Once you find it, parking is limited and crammed under an Interstate overpass. Thousands of old nasty dollar bills line the darkened ceiling of this seemingly shady, pub-like establishment. No wait service, as customers must go to the bar for their order whenever your number is shouted. Beverages are good, but dispensed in one location positioned behind a table, so you have to squeeze your way behind customers in order to get a refill. Again, great food, but it's more of a blue-collar, after-hours or college hangout, as opposed to a family-friendly type of restaurant. I rate it an Average, since the food was good and the location isn't entirely their fault (but they need to dress up the place and put out a sign).
Slap Ya Mama Good!!: The best shrimp poboys ever!!!
Georges: Great shrimp and corn soup/plenty o catfish on Fridays...Overall good food.
