"So, I generally don 't like loud and boisterous restaurants. And Walk On 's is loud and boisterous. But I 'm not going to dock them any points for that. It clearly says sports bar on the outside, so I knew what to expect walking in. I figured the music would be loud and energetic, and that there would be a million TV 's lining all the walls. And yup, that 's what I got. What I didn 't expect: A bona fide amazing Louisianian themed restaurant masquerading as a sports bar. But that 's what I got! Looking over the cocktails menu, the drinks are a bit pricey over $10 for most everything I saw. But, luckily, it was Sunday happy hour, so I got a perfectly decent **** Mary for $5.00 I started with the Devils on Horseback fried shrimp with bacon, creamed cheese and jalapenos. These were incredible. The shrimp were huge, and generously wrapped in bacon. There was just enough jalapeno and cream cheese to add a touch of flavor, but not enough to overwhelm the taste of the shrimp. These were served with some kind of sweet and spicy sauce that paired well. For the main course, I had the Redfish Rudy blackened redfish, with warm tomato salsa and Louisiana street corn. The redfish was delicate, without too much spice (which I was a touch surprised at, as blackened dishes tend to be a bit overloaded with spice). The delicate fish meat paired very well with the tang of the hot tomatoes and cilantro of the salsa. The dish was good as it was, but was improved a bit with a dash of Tobasco. After the spicy drink and shrimp, I felt more spice was needed to bring the fish up to the same flavor profile. My server, Kyla, was very attentive and respectful every request was met with a yes sir. You don 't hear that often these days, and it was nice. I spent around $40 for the drink appetizer and seafood. A bit more than one would expect walking into a sports bar, but perfectly in line with the amazing meal I had. They have other dishes on the menu that I 'm looking forward to trying in the future."

"Went in for Free RPG Day and like too many other stores the swag for Free RPG Day was behind a pay wall, which is code for people buying table time food at Game Train USA. Definitely not the intention of Free RPG Day, which is sad as I really want a FLGS after not having one for some time.Note to the owners, if you want to welcome people in via Free RPG Day maybe be more welcoming and generous. That is a great program to build up goodwill and bring people in.It is not all bad, despite the above off putting item. I would have given it a solid four stars as I think they get most things right.They have a full bar, which is a welcome addition to the gaming scene.They serve real food, which is better than any other gaming hangout in town.They have a lot going on. Games, painting and so on.Great location, which used to be a long suffering Vietnamese-Thai-Chinese restaurant. Easy to get to.The décor is on point and very well done in a steampunk style. There are many options for eating and playing. From a train car loaded with tables and faux scenery rolling by to private rooms.Plenty of games on hand to play during your visit.This is a gaming destination, but what it is not is a gaming store. The RPG side of their microscopic store front is sparse. There is some Warhammer 40k in a small area. A teeny tiny bit of MTG. Their board game area is okay, but tilts towards casual pick up and play.Will I be back? Maybe, maybe not. I like the idea of a place to go to paint and drink a beer or two. But I also like good first impressions and that was lacking. There will always be more beer, but not first impressions.Parking: Plenty of parking, thought he store itself is a little hidden and it may not be obvious where to park."
