The food was excellent. The imlette was a chef creation of blackened crawfish spinach and artichokes. Then I was covered with a garlic cream sauce. The country potatoes were very good diced large with peppers and andouille sausage. They did not skimp on the sausage in it. Almost every other fork full had sausage. Delicious fresh squeezed sweet orange juice. My fiance had bottomless mimosa with her chicken and waffles she had a leg and thigh accompanied with 4 corners of a waffle and some bacon. The syrup was steens and maybe mixed in. My only complaint would be the omlete was folded over the spinach

This drink omggg, Smashtini . So where do I begin, our server/my new bff Aven couldn't have done anything better. He was so polite, keep us laughing, and was spot on with every food choice recommendation.
The crab cake, steak tips and mash were simply delightfully. We had to do our part by thanking the "chef" Kyle for preparing such an awesome feast . David even offered me a job after we were there for over 2 hrs and I requested a pillow and blanket Beautiful ambiance, so calm and relaxing, not overcrowded, we'll definitely revisit real soon.

I went to your locations in central and was told there was no tables. The guy at the door wanted to set me at the bar. I didn't realize one needed an reservation for brunch. I feel the guy could have recommended another area besides the bar. I guess because I was by myself that I didn't deserve anything else. It was my birthday and I had been looking forward to it all week. He was so unprofessional and rude. It was when the restaurant opened so there were few people. Want be back again. Truly truly disappointed.

For starters I was SUPER EXCITED to come here. I heard so many good things about stabs in general. I had a reservation for 7:30. When we got there they sat us the closest to the bathroom. Our server was SUPER great. We ordered wine and that came out fast. We got the crab cake appetizer. That had shells in it ** but it did have jumbo lump crab. Then we got the shrimp app and it was great. We ordered the sea bass and it smelled absolutely terrible. When the server came back I had told her the fish smelled awful and she was like yeah I can smell it. It's like ok... so they took it back and the

So let me start by saying we cancelled our reservation for 12. Then we rebooked last minute. And they accommodated us! The table was ready early even. Great wine list. The food was phenomenal. The gumbo was rich, the trout was perfection. We also tried marrow for the first time and they brought extra bread for the table freshly toasty so everyone could try. They surprised us with complimentary white chocolate bread pudding for a birthday celebration. My favorite was seeing so many teens employed, all dressed up and learning the fine dining culture, etiquette, and manners. Manager David oversaw

Very nice atmosphere, super professional staff, everyone we encountered was very nice. We have travel quite a bit and this place is good but it was not the best formal restaurant we have visited. We have no complaints, Food was very good but prices were a little exacerbated,l. I think there is limited options of other places of this style and nature so of course this one stands out. Nothing negative of course just my thoughts on pricing vs food.

I had been hearing about the crab cakes for quite some time. Decided to visit one Saturday evening around 6:30. We had called the day before and made reservations. We were seated in the bar area that featured music played by a pianist. It was a nice atmosphere. We ordered Cajun Boudin Spring rolls and they were really good. Unfortunately that's the only good thing I had. We ordered the crab cake and it was just okay. Certainly not the best I've ever had. And nothing that I just have to go back and get. There is no kid's menu but the waitress suggested some items from the lunch menu

The first time I ever visited my wife and I was out riding around checking out the area since we had just recently moved to the area . Both of us was in shorts and tee shirts , walked in to a room full of suits lol . As we was seated they asked what was the special occasion? My wife replied we are hungry .
The waiter covered the menu with us and visited for a while making us feel at home . Great job ! The food , the service , the waiter , and the manager all provided amazing service and product ..

Wasn't the best experience for a first visit! But we ordered at 8:15 and the food started to arrive at 9:45 ! Then some things were sent back ! The only thing there was no complaints about were the crab cakes. I had a burger that was served lukewarm and onion rings that were stone cold ! And at $15 for a burger this should not have been ! Then there was and up charge for the cold onion rings ! The chargrilled oysters were ok! Very small though! My wife had the redfish and it was good . At a cost of $129. This was not a great dining experience ! Don't think we will be going back ! Unless

It was date night(VALENTINES DAY) so my Hubby took me here with some friends & the atmosphere was great the waiter was a little slow but u can understand that it was a Hectic Night with all the People, but all in all it Turned out OK. The CRAB CAKE was the Hit of the night. It was so good 5 out of 6 of us had one($20 for one), but worth it!! We also had a conversation about it at the table while we were having Drinks( it was that good!)I also had the REDD FISH & it was GREAT as well & Very Filling. I ended up taking it home & having it the next night for Dinner as well( was missing

We always have a great experience at Stabs in Central. We are typically seated right away in the area of our choice. If we ask for the channel to be changed we are given the remote. David the manager always comes around and speaks to us, he is super friendly.
The facility itself is clean and beautiful with front row parking in front of a gorgeous neighborhood. The bathrooms are clean and tidy.
The food is always hot and delicious. The brunch is our favorite so far. The bread pudding is a MUST try. We bring our family here when they come in town because we know they are guaranteed to enjoy

The food was edible they weren't the best tasting kinda of lacked really any flavor except for almost a sickly pungent from the herb butter but the prices are not worth the cost I've had 12$ ribeyes steaks at a better quality and flavor
It came out beautiful looking the curved plates made it look pretty but made the overall ability to cut the steak agitating not including the steak was extremely tough and chewy
The staff was wonderful they did a great job of taking care of the us
But I really won't be coming back here
Thanks for the wonderful service but sadly the food was not

I didn't even know this place in Central existed but I do now and I'm excited about it. The restaurant it's self is beautiful and the food was fabulous and the service was excellent.
Upon arriving I was sat immediately and my waiter was there immediately as well, his name was Travon. The manager came by my table a few times to see how everything was and he even introduced himself and shook my hand, his name was David.
I noticed that had a full bar and an extensive wine list, me I had a sweet iced tea with lemon which my waiter kept full for me. To eat I started with a half dozen

Wow. We began with a wonderful call, hostess giving seating options and menu ideas. The atmosphere is great. Beautiful, calm...a real treat. we wanted outside on the patio deck. beautiful table and view. waiter made our 6th anniversary special with making sure we were taken care of but not overbearing our time. He made sure my 9yr old enjoyed her fancy meal (shes a harsh critic and loved it) food was 100% amazing. Redfish in 1/2 shell is magical, steaks cooked to perfection. Flavors and presentation are spot on. Will recommend and will be back. It is pricey but well worth it in flavors, portions

As someone who doesn't eat beef I'm glad Stab's has seafood, salads, and sides to fall back on. The staff is always friendly, personable, warm and inviting. If you have questions regarding the menu they are eager to assist you with making your decision. The staff knows the menu. (Which is important to me when I'm dining out.)
The wedge salad I started my recent meal with was delicious. I appreciated the chilled fork for the salad, the attention to detail was thoughtful. For my entree I ordered the fried shrimp. They were perfectly cooked and huge! The grilled, fresh

So I had read numerous reviews on this restaurant after being invited here last min and couldn't make it.
Everyone raved about it so I know I had to try it. My husband and I usually eat out on Fridays so I chose Stabs.
When we pulled up, it was beautiful. A nice fountain and patio area. There was a beautiful fire as well. Walked in and was greeted and sat immediately. (It was on the later side)
The table setting was simple but elegant with bold red cloth napkins as sort of the focal point. Our server was very attentive and so was the manager.
They appear to have a great team serving approach
