By far and beyond still my favorite spot in Manhattan. Been going since the early/mid 90s and will never stop. There have been weeks where I have gone there 4 or 5 times and it has never ever disappointed me. Amazing creole wings, gumbo, jambalaya, burgers, rotating specials that always kick ass and some of the best drinks ever. Try the Shaggy - it's GJC's amazing version of the classic Dark & Stormy. Once you have one of those, you'll never turn back. There's also a killer jukebox full of rockin' soul and 50s-70s R&B. Plenty of New Orleans favorites. Did I mention that the people who work there are amongst the best in the world? That's pretty important, too.
Things to know: they will not seat you if you don't have your full party there. And, speaking of full, this place is tiny. I wouldn't recommend a party bigger than 6 at any time. I have brought way more than that, but it was usually late night. Kitchen is open until 12am. Saturday and Sunday brunch is fantastic as well.

Our favorite place in NYC for real southern cajun food for years. Really yummy food - everything on the menu!!! Love jambalaya, smothered eggs, and special any day. And never stop at one piece of cornbread or biscuit, it will be your loss. It's a real neighborhood relaxing eatery that we �.
