History
Established in 1975.
As the first and longest-running Cajun/Creole restaurant in Chicagoland spanning two generations, we specialize in traditional and new New Orleans fare. We feature signature New Orleans cocktails such as the Hurricane, Pimm’s Cup, and Sazerac, 8 boutique wines on draft, and a carefully curated list of 24 craft beers on draft, including a few rare vintage bottles.
All of our food is prepared in house, from our Smoked Andouille Sausage, Jambalaya, and Étouffée, to our famous Hickory Buttered BBQ Shrimp & Grits. We source the majority of our seafood fresh from the Gulf or East Coast, from trusted suppliers we have worked with for nearly four decades. All of our oysters come in fresh daily from the Gulf or Chesapeake Bay in Virginia, one of the premier oyster harvesting locations in the U.S. Our produce is sourced from local farmers, whenever possible, and our meat is sourced from local Midwest farms that have pledged to be hormone and antibiotic-free.
