Pairing Wine with Creole Classics
For instance, our seafood gumbo, with its blend of spices and textures, pairs exquisitely with a glass of Sonoma-Cutrer Chardonnay. This wine’s stone fruit aroma and ripe pear & peach flavors meld beautifully with the gumbo’s savory notes.

Exploring Red Wine Pairings
Our menu’s robust dishes, like chicken parmesan or handmade meatballs, are enhanced by the lush fruit flavors and silky tannins of Bonanza Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine’s dark chocolate undertones provide a delightful contrast to the acidity of the tomato-based sauces, creating a harmonious balance.
Another excellent choice for those who enjoy a smoother red is the Bell’agio Chianti, known for its zesty notes of cherry and berry fruit, which pairs perfectly with our tender veal parmesan. The wine’s dry and smooth character complements the richness of the dish without overpowering it.
White Wines for Seafood Delights
For those who lean towards lighter fare, our fresh seafood dishes such as the softshell crab are perfectly matched with the crisp and citrusy notes of Cantina Colli Euganei Pinot Grigio. Its saline character accentuates the natural flavors of the seafood, making every bite more refreshing.
Additionally, the Joel Gott Sauvignon Blanc brings a vibrant touch to dishes like our shrimp & oyster plates. Its aromas of honeydew melon and notes of tangerine and grapefruit cut through the richness of the seafood, providing a refreshing palate cleanse.
