Food scene
Super kid-friendly, with a sand play area and outdoor toys. Go early or get on the waitlist, because there’s usually a long wait! But you can enjoy the bar or arcade, and maybe some live music, while you wait.

This is a great local seafood market right across the street from us! If you want some ready-made gumbo, crawfish etouffee, jambalaya, steamed shrimp, etc. then I recommend visiting! Many of the entrees are frozen and just require heating up to enjoy.
