A warm and lovely gathering place in the Seventh Ward. Awesome talent is the order of the day. A full vegan menu option was a very pleasant surprise. (The unsalted vegan gumbo is tasty if you add a bit of salt.)Tanya Boyd Cannon & Co. is a must-catch act with impressive talent and an exhaustive repertoire. Best new local find!

This place is great for vegans and great music!!My family and I came here to celebrate a birthday and we tried most of the vegan menu, and I can absolutely say I was impressed by the options. The crab cakes were phenomenal as well as the sliders, and the gumbo is fantastic!We came on Saturday the 23rd and the new band was playing, they were awesome! I hope more people come to watch/listen to them.

Nifty neighborhood music club w cozy bar area off the beaten path of the typical tourista districts. The main stage room seats about 50 so it is great to really get to enjoy a band and their antics.

Sent two messages asking for info using their website message system. No reply either time.If one expects someone to recommend going to one’s establishment it’s a good idea to pay that someone the common courtesy of replying if they take the time to ask simple questions.Wouldn’t go or recommend to go. Tons of other places in Mew Orleans that respect prospective customers enough to give them the common decency of replying.

We were in town for the 2019 Essence Music Festival and my wife, being a N.O. girl and me from the mighty Chi - Town, wanted to hear some live music in a more intimate setting. The Music, musicians performing, and featured guest (Tone Tony Toni) was excellent! Very very nice performance even without Raphael Saddiqui! Bar and drink service was absolutely horrendous including long wait times for very marginal drinks served. Great atmosphere with an involved, appreciative, responsive 40 plus crowd! Keep them coming back by hiring a knowledgeable responsive bartender that knows how to prepare drinks! Although we didnt order food, from what we saw served looked very appetizing! We will be returning as we support African American owned establishments nationwide as African American professionals, it is our responsibility to uplift and assist growth in our own communities!

Attended a reserved Silverback Lead Mentors meeting. Jambalaya was appealing to the eyes and to the palate. The fish was fried to perfection. Chicken wings were wonderful. The salad was almost too pretty to eat, and the ingredients were all fresh. The environment was excellent, and the owner catered to our every need. Reserve your meeting today!

These guys have a separate, purely vegan menu that is delicious, local New Orleans flavor, and based on a three generation tradition of vegetarian/vegan lifestyle.

The food was awful . The fish was so spoiled , bad , tainted. I had to send it back. The chicken was bad too. Foutunatly the band was amazing. I believe the waitress was high. But we came to support a fellow musician .

Update 2018. This place has been closed for 5 years as of 7/9/18. The lights are on but nobody is homeWhen it WAS open itwas 5 star as far as Im concerned. Slowly there was a decline in the breadth and quality of the entertainers, quality of the food and the fun factor of the regulars. The food is now so-so and overpriced. The entertainment used to be great but is now limited to a small fraction of the varied, accomplished and highly entertaining artists that used to play here. They had a really good bartender but shes gone (she made great rum punches!). All the fun regulars have vanished. Then to add another nail to the coffin, the joint is only open sporadically. It used to be a great place to see wonderful entertainment, mingle with interesting regulars, have good drinks, good food and enjoy personable servers. But ----- not now.

This used to be one of my favorite spots. However, a group of friends went there on 3/31/17 for a comedy show. We didnt expect the comics to be great, but wanted a nice evening out. Well the service was deplorable- only one poor server who had to handle the bar and tables for both drinks and food! The food wasnt ready until after 9:30, and it was horrible. The fish and frys tasted like theyed been fried in old grease. The owner, Paul, acted as if he didnt want to be there. A truly bad experience. So bad, I dont know if Ill ever go back. What a shame.

Ive never been here but someone with too much time on their hands has reviewed it using my name and for added in some religious intolerance to boot. Please ignore that review and check this place out for yourself.
