I had an excellent dining experience at this restaurant that almost earned a five-star review. Both our appetizer and main courses were outstanding and packed with flavor. Our waitress, Sheena, was exceptional—one of the best I've ever encountered. The atmosphere was classy and upscale, making for a lovely evening.
The reason I gave four stars instead of five was the portion sizes, which felt on the smaller side for the price. However, the Bayou Broccoli appetizer was absolutely phenomenal, topped with green onions, shredded cheese, and bacon bits, accompanied by a delicious sauce on the side. I ordered the catfish platter, which was perfectly cooked and had a delightful spicy kick typical of South Louisiana cuisine. My wife enjoyed the Eggplant Pirogue, which was nothing short of outstanding (I had to try some!). The only downside was the misleading advertisement of 'crab claws'—there was only one crab claw in the dish.
Our son went for the seafood platter, and he was really pleased with his meal as well. Sheena's service was top-notch; she was genuinely friendly, had great interpersonal skills, and was quick on the uptake. She was articulate, knowledgeable about the menu, and always seemed to come by at the perfect moments—never too often, never too infrequent. Our drink glasses were never empty, which was much appreciated.
It was evident that Sheena was genuinely invested in providing excellent service and representing Copeland's well. Thank you for that great experience! Additionally, there was ample parking and plenty of handicapped spaces, which we always appreciate."
