Great jazz music! Excellent burgers !
Loud in front where jazz music is playing and tables are for dining. Quiet in the back where bar is. (Bar area is down the hall in a separate room.)

The atmosphere is very welcoming. You also must try their chicken gumbo! Yum!
There is also stepper dancing with a DJ on Wednesday evenings in the back bar area but get there early, around 7:00, if you want to get a seat!
