Food scene
One of our top faves for 15-20 years. 2 blocks walk to downtown. The owners are from Louisiana & the place has a Nola vibe w/some cajun dishes & lots more. The barbecue shrimp (cajun shrimp & grits), cajun spring rolls & gumbo are great apps. Ohh & steamed mussels are outstanding if they have them. Bayou salad, jambalaya & burgers are excellent too. Ohh & the steaks, pastas & seafood dishes are wonderful too. They have outdoor seating, live local music on weekends. It’s divided into a fine dining restaurant & bar/restaurant depending on your desired feel for the evening. Hope you enjoy!!
Ps…my husband designed & renovated the bathrooms & next year we may be redesigning the bar side.

Nolve Dolce is a local favorite. It has great a vibe & their signature cocktails are stellar. Apps, salads, coffees & more. Their bruschetta, buffalo cauliflower & bacon wrapped dates are my go to apps. If you like margaritas, try the smoke show w/a lil kick.

Excellent breakfast/brunch spot. Wide selection & always fresh. My favorite is the surfer girl omelet & their fresh squeezed OJ. Unfortunately no brunch cocktails here, but food is great. This is a few miles away, but easy to get to by GPS

LOVE their chicken salad, Brussel sprouts, mash potatoes & gravy, fruit tea & much more. Their white bean chowder is a MUST try!! I don’t even like bean soups & its a staple for our entire family.
