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.

- DFDemetrus Franklin1 day ago5.0Madi was a great server. She was very attentive and professional. She ensured that I got my food in a timely manner and I never had to request a refill. My jacked up oysters and Acadian Fish was also extremely good.
- TStonya stewart4 days ago1.0After waiting 5 minutes to be seated because hostess was taking a to go order, we were told we they were not serving outside tables. It was 65 degrees and not a cloud in the sky....why? So we left and they lost money.
- CMCatherine Courtenay Miller4 days ago5.0Madi was excellent-she was so professional and fast, and did an amazing job with our party of 10 (including 2 kids). She handled special orders fabulously, and did such a great job. We can’t wait to be back!
- CGCarol Gadwaw5 days ago3.0My Granddaughter wanted to go here for her birthday. I’ve never eaten here before and I am sorry to say I will not return. Everyone here was wonderful and very accommodating. It was the food that was disappointing. The bisque, etoufe’ and grilled shrimp were so salty it couldn’t be eaten. I heard the food was really good and I’m so sorry it wasn’t. I hope that in the future that things will improve.
- KXKenrene X5 days ago1.0The food here was really great! The moment my family and I walked in we were treated poorly. There was a misunderstanding about our inquiry to order mimosas, the server thought we just were asking. I approached the front host to inquire about my appetizer when the server misunderstood and thought I would want it with my meal?!? The manager came to our table and was more rude. To say the least this was a horrible experience.
