    Chef Chris Williams built this Museum District restaurant as a tribute to his great-grandmother, culinary pioneer Lucille B. Smith. The chili biscuits are a signature starter, and the menu runs through gumbo, deep-fried chicken, and tender braised oxtails in a polished sit-down room.

    Brothers Chris and Ben Williams built this Museum District restaurant around the recipes of their great grandmother Lucille B. Smith, serving deep fried chicken with crackling skin alongside gumbo and biscuits. A nationally recognized Southern kitchen with real family history.
