    Easily the best restaurant in all of Elgin. Extremely nice waiters/waitresses, and quality food every time. If you haven't been here yet, you need to!

    Try the Jambalaya Pasta - #chicken, #andouille sausage and #shrimp in a #creole sauce. Use the spoon when eating the pasta, the sauce is good and has a balanced #heat.

    The menu has changed. Prices are slightly up. Bruscheta burger, one of my favorites, is off the menu but they can still make it if you ask.
