A meat-centric spot chef Isaac Toups and his wife Amanda. House-cured meat and house-made sausages (plus other non-meat options). Oh, and they have insanely good Doberge cake. [Eater 38 Member]
The pho and banh mi here are excellent, but regulars know that the house specialties (the goat curry) are where it's at. If you love calamari, their fried squid is on point. [Eater 38 Member]

The menu is classic New Orleans Creole (read: tourist-oriented) but dammit if that’s not some of the best shrimp remoulade in town. [Eater 38 Member]
The fried chicken rivals that at nearby Willie Mae’s, and the fried catfish will be some of the best you’ve ever had. [Eater 38 Member]
