Food is overpriced for what it is. Almost $20 for "gourmet spaghetti and meatballs" when really its just spaghetti-o from a can and 2 tiny rissoles? I'm sorry but that's just out of order.

Thinking I would indulge in the authentic tastes of a foreign nature, I ordered corn bread. Now, when the handsome young dill-brain took my order, I knew he would forget it all. KNEW. I'm not impressed one little bit when wait staff don't take partake in SOME form of note-taking when collecting orders. Ooh you can remember 3 things at once? I'm not even mildly impressed, especially when you cant even remember all of the things in the order anyway.

When the corn bread never arrived (which was long after Id eaten my spaghetti-o) I asked the waitress who said she would go and find out. She never returned. When I went inside and asked at the counter where the corn bread is another waitress looked very puzzled, like she had never heard of this strange cultural form of snack. I told her to cancel the corn bread.

Then, as we were preparing to leave, the corn bread arrived.

Food: 2/5

Service: 1/5

Atmosphere: 3/5 (you pay extra for live music and there was a dog wagging its tails against my shins from the table next to us)

Overall: 2/5 if you want a more authentic New Orleans experience, put a jazz CD on at home and eat spaghetti out of a can
