Absolutely amazing food, great service can dress up or fashion casual. Price point can be a little steep but it’s worth the quality. From the drinks to the dessert everything is well thought out and extremely delicious.

My only issue was I had a party of ten and the waiter brought out the check and said they can’t split it so that was inconvenient.

Our waiter, DJ, elevated our experience with both his level of service as well as his knowledge of the menu and suggestions based upon our preferences. We were sat immediately and ordered appetizers (don’t sleep on the cornbread!), cocktails and wine. The creole-inspired menu had numerous selections featuring a wide variety of proteins. For our main courses, we had the shrimp & grits, gumbo, duck, scallops, crab and a couple of cheeseburgers. Side dishes were broccolini and the brussel sprouts with the broccolini outperforming and the brussel sprouts actually being a bit too complicated with the number of ingredients in the dish. The wine, although, not expansive, had a nice quality with selections from Napa, Bordeaux’s Left Bank and Burgundy. All in all, it was a solid meal. I wouldn’t quite recommend a Michelin Star but I would not hesitate to come back to patronize the establishment many more times in the future.

The experience at this restaurant was AMAZING! A couple of us arrived early and took advantage of the bar area as there were open seats. The bartender was so nice, very informative on the cocktail offerings and even allowed me to sample as he was making the drink I was interested in. I am upset with myself for not getting his name, but he was GREAT! We were then seated and greeted immediately, Amanda was our server and she acknowledged that we were celebrating our friend's bday who was actually late. We appreciated the restaurant allowing us to be seated prior to her arrival! Amanda gave recommendations for starters and answered questions we had about the menu. Us friends try to meet monthly for dinner and this was out first time at Eunice, but will not be our last. The noise level was comfortable and we were able to have a conversation and hear each other speak without yelling over loud music. This dinner was so pleasurable, peaceful and calming! The food was so flavorful and very large portions, we all had food to take home. They also brought out a desert for the birthday girl that was large enough to share and it was delicious! Thanks to all the staff for an amazing dining experience!

Food was noticeably more expensive than in previous dining experiences. Also, convenience fee????-we asked- it was for using a credit card. What restaurants charge 3% for customers charging the dinner on their credit card?!?!? The server was great! Probably won't be back for awhile. Drinks were good though and so was the bartendar.
