It was very, very good. They have two dining areas, the main dining room which is more formal(ie, more expensive) and a more casual bistro side that serves well executed versions of Cajun and Creole offerings. The service was top notch and everything we ate was wonderful.

I instantly fell in love with the place which is open year round. The selection of produce( a lot of it locally grown) and meats was vast and the food offerings very good. The biggest thing that I noticed was the price differences between our local farmer's markets and what they had on display there. I would say that they were about 50% cheaper on everything they had to offer including the meats.

Perhaps at Soulard price fixing by the vendors is not encouraged==>lower prices??
