Description:

As much as this restaurant has moved upscale, it has no pretensions about its food: it's good, basic New Orleans style eats, prepared simply but from scratch, cooked to order when frying is involved, served more generously than you or I really need but stopping short of grossness. The Italian cooking would suit the palate of a child--but most of us never got over our taste for smooth, slightly sweet red sauces.
