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.

- PAPaul Armstrong6 days ago5.0Food, service and atmosphere were outstanding! Highly recommend!
- SJShaelyn JohnsonNov 15, 20251.0My friends and I visited Dons last night and were very disappointed. This is usual a staple on our list but this was by far the worst food and service I’ve had since I started coming here. The oysters were cold and the waitress took awhile to bring our bread and oyster forks which didn’t make any sense. The rest of our food was also cold and too salty and drinks took forever, she kept forgetting to bring items. Won’t be back for a while if at all. NEEDS IMPROVEMENT.
