There were definitely highlights with the food, and there were aspects that were leaning towards mediocre. One major highlight was that for the dishes that contained lobster and crawfish, the amount of such that was given was very generous, which I appreciated. This made the lobster gnocchi a lot more enjoyable.
To continue on the lobster gnocchi, due to the amount of lobster, along with the softness of the gnocchi, the bisque truffle, and the cheese on the top, the saltiness and savor were present, and the dish was amazing. The Creole meatloaf had very flavorful gravy, which helped a lot, because it made the whipped potato, combined with meatloaf, bacon, and carrots, a delicious entity altogether. Simply amazing.
The crawfish etouffee was great as well, as I could tell it was smothered well, with the sauce literally coating the crawfish.
I wasn't a fan of the walleye because the fried flavor was very strong, meaning that I felt like I was mainly tasting the breading rather than the fish, and even the fish itself didn't have enough seasoning, and relied on the sauce for flavor instead. The crab beignets were okay, and tasted that much better with the tartar sauce next to them, which once again indicated lack of seasoning. The beignets were mediocre as well with way too much powdered sugar and not enough white sugar sticking to the beignets, so they were relying on powdered sugar for the looks yet missed the texture complexity.
The same night, I had a stomachache which may have been caused by the richness of the food. It doesn't matter to me at this point, but I must say it was very hard to digest the food that night, recalling from my memory. There was a lot of rich stuff.
Our server (Grace, I believe) was extremely pleasant and helpful! She was easy-going, engaged in conversations with us, and ensured our order was done correctly in speedy manners. I would recommend this spot if one is in Edina!
