While I was a bit disappointed with the frog legs, I loved the alligator dish and I plan to come back. There are many items on the menu that I'm eager to try. I'm also pleased with both the prices and the service.

Overall, the food was delicious, and the servers were friendly. They have a nice selection of beer and cocktails. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone craving good Cajun cuisine. There’s a pleasant outdoor area, some of which is covered, along with pool tables, dart boards, and a cornhole course. It's a fun place to hang out!

It didn’t seem like it was cooked fresh. Charging 75 cents for a cup of sauce is outrageous! The person taking my order over the phone wasn't very friendly either. I seriously doubt we'll be dining here again. We're very disappointed!

I have a few bones to pick, but bear with me please. We ordered shrimp poboys of which the bread was superb and comparable to what you 'd get if you came visit South Louisiana. The shrimp were under done. It was basically a gooey shrimp mess after 2 bites. The boiled shrimp were boiled to perfection which (in my opinion) is the most important criteria for boiling shrimp. It 's usually hit or miss, but you guys nailed it. You guys take a more SW Louisiana approach to seasoning the boiled seafood. In the Lafayette area, they sprinkle the seasoning on top of the seafood after it 's boiled. This is just wrong in so many ways, I cannot begin to convey. The shrimp themselves (sprinkled cayenne aside) were very bland and tasted like the water in which they were boiled wasn 't seasoned at all. The corn was the same way: absolutely no seasoning. I find that you guys are a little shy on the salt up here at all the restaurants I have frequented this week. Y 'all could make things a whole lot better by just adding a little bit of salt to everything you guys cook, especially the boiled seafood. All in all, it was a good experience. I use the term 'experience ' lightly as we used Door Dash as opposed to dining in. This could be the reason the fried shrimp didn 't hold up too well on the poboy. Would give you guys another shot in a couple weeks.

I rate this restaurant as excellent and suggest everyone to give it a shot. They specialize in Fresh Food, so sometimes they might not have it in or is so good it is sold out. Try it , you'll love it !

The Gator was a bit overcooked, and the mac and cheese was somewhat bland. However, the frog legs and shrimp were quite good. read more The Gator was a bit overcooked, and the mac and cheese was somewhat bland. However, the frog legs and shrimp were quite good.

She went on to list French fries, green beans, Dr. Pepper, and several other items. I ordered the catfish po' boy, but it was far from Cajun and incredibly disappointing. They offered me a different side dish, but mac and cheese simply doesn’t pair with a catfish po' boy, so I declined it. To make matters worse, I was still charged for a full meal. I ended up paying $13 for a basic 6-inch catfish sandwich—definitely not Cajun! And just so you know, I’m from New Orleans. We will never return to this place again. Honestly, there’s a Walmart down the road; they could have gone there for the sides they were missing. Never again!

The server was unfamiliar with the extensive menu, and we waited an hour for our food, which arrived lukewarm. After finally getting our meals, we had to wait another 15 minutes for forks, leaving our food cold by the time we were able to eat. The bartenders were arguing among themselves and with the servers, and it took an astonishing 50 minutes just to receive my drink. Moreover, the food was overpriced and did not taste good at all!
