The truth is, you don’t become a Louisiana favorite just by putting the word “authentic” on your sign. When you’ve served Cajun meals as long as we have, you learn the difference between real food and a bland imitation, and our guests know it too. Grilled, fried or on ice–there’s time cooked into every dish and time spent on every home cooked recipe, so that every aroma, every bite, every sip and every gathering is memorable. We’ve spent more than 80 years creating a recipe for something much greater than a place for a lunch break or night out. It’s a place to share (or keep the whole plate to yourself), a place where you always have a seat ready at the table and a place where you’re always part of the family.

    We love Don’s! I have never had anything that wasn’t fantastic. Today I found my new favorite greens beans that I’ve ever had. My daughter got the chicken and waffles and said it was “amazing.” All of our seafood was so good. Their hush puppies are such a good appetizer. I’ve never had anything oyster there that I didn’t like.

    Great food, service, and atmosphere! Jay was our server and he was very nice and personable. We had the jacked up shrimp, mac n cheese, stuffed potato, and the brownie a la mode. That’s easily one of the best desserts I’ve ever had. Thanks to Jay for being funny and making our experience awesome!
