Very well planned Creole and Cajun menu. Excellent assortment for everyone. Only comment, portion sizes are huge. Might be worth splitting a plate. The catfish Decatur had the best jambalaya I've ever had.

Food was excellent and our server was very accommodating. Highly recommend the crab dip, oysters, corn for the table, short rib and redfish. Tried all three desserts and they did not disappoint. Beautiful ambiance and decorated for the fall. Our group of 8 was satisfied and impressed with Saint John. I highly recommend for your next visit.

Thoroughly enjoyed the food and atmosphere. The only issue I had was parking and the line. We ended up parking on some side street walking distance from the restaurant. This normally wouldn’t be an issue but it was raining real heavy that day. Also, I will give credit to the security who checked us in and ensured our reservations were honored. I can only imagine the headache it would’ve been had we not gotten reserved seating.

Both our waitress, Kaitlyn, and the Sommelier, Brendan, made this evening a special time. The steak was perfectly cooked and our sides were delicious. We will definitely be back Hopefully they will do a happy hour menu!!
