"This is one of those situations where the hype does not quite meet the intended expectation. I hope to explain the review so the management and consumer can understand my 3 stars. Our server was exceptional for this visit. Great people skills and knowledge of the menu. We had a cafe latte and French toast bites to start. The coffee was a bit weak and they provided no spoon to stir in any sweetener. It?s Louisiana and the coffee should have an attitude fitting to stand up to the dairy. This screamed latte no cafe! Paper straws I really dislike them. I know it?s a green alternative, however, they break down in my beverage (iced water) and they weaken. The server provide plates, and napkins prior to the starter which is a necessity unless you want to feel like your eating from a buffet. The French toast bites are dirty, crusted morsels, albeit for the sides and caramel drizzle. This was done very well. Perfect if the coffee had delivered to its expectation. Our entrees, although edible, were neither visually appealing or as reported by other reviews raving the delights of the Epicurious. The biscuits and gravy, although built up to a pinnacle deserving of an Olympian feat, fell short in delivering the anticipatory glory of mouthwatering exceptionalism. The gravy was a watery mess of broken tears and subpar sausage. The eggs were not fresh and appeared and tasted like premade panned eggs. That?s atrocious if you expect fresh scrambled eggs. They are easy to do. They take 1 2 minutes unless they are done in the French style and creamed to perfection. The fried green tomato was perfect. Crisp, textured, and absolutely a treat along with the bacon. These are however sides to the main dish. Biscuits do not need to be that high to deliver the intended expectation. Too much bread versus gravy. The avocado, salmon toast should have been a key winner in this deflated adventure. The presentation was good. The poached egg, although perfect in cooking was not exceptional in fla"
