Rebecca Aponte: Having been a patron from older times, the remodel is beautiful with TV's everywhere and beautiful clean decor. Wings are amazing at half off Monday's, but dress light as the AC still depends on fans.
Paul Tucker: Food is simple and the drinks are cheap. Enough said!
Chris Jones: Free pool Mondays, $1 the rest of the time. I'm in.
Gareth Jones: Really delicious ribs and wings. They also have good selection of beers from local breweries.
Jim Mitchem: Try the pork sandwich. Fairly delicious.
CLTdining: Seriously delicious ribs, brisket, bbq and sides. I especially like the green bean casserole, collards and mac and cheese. Don't overlook the yummy tacos though. Flying Tuna taco is darn good.

Kimberly S.: You can't go wrong here, but I love the tofu wings, fried green tomatoes, and goat cheese grits! The biscuits are super fluffy and delicious!
Derek Hoffer: The pre-dinner biscuits are delicious! Get the ooh sherry pancake!
Joshua Drown: If you like whiskey, and I do, try the Bourbon Basil Sour. A little bit sour, a little bit fresh, and all out good.

American Restaurant · Fourth Ward · 47 tips and reviews
Joshua Drown: Awesome spot tucked away in the Fourth Ward. If you like a little spice with your seafood try the blackened catfish with Jamaican relish and Creole tartar sauce.
Lena Gershkovich: Try the crab soup!
Sarah Wilbanks: Love the nachos - big enough for two and then some! Cost is about $8. PS - this is a great first date place. Be sure to get there a little earlier, though (shoot for 6:30) because it fills up fast!
