Ordered the cat-touffée and it was wonderful. Blackened catfish on bed of rice topped with crawdad étouffée morsels. You get a choice of sides and I went for the fried okra to round out the Southern experience. Husband loved the gumbo. Dog friendly patio and they had fans blowing since it was 95 degrees out, but made it surprisingly comfortable. Servers very friendly and attentive.

Can’t say enough about Destiny and Katie – the hospitality is out of this world, the food is delicious and although it’s been half a year since my last visit, they actually remembered me?! The staff as a whole is great, the atmosphere is homey and quaint while still having that rustic finish. Fantastic as it was last time, next time I’ll spend more time here and buy the kitchen a round!

Very busy, but server took care of us. Both our seafood dishes were great. My wife had Cat Etoufee. The sauce was amazing. I had the seafood platter with shrimp, crawfish, oysters, and fries. Prices are high but you get a lot of food.

Awesome “hole in the wall” oyster house. Oysters were fresh and just as cold as their beer. Good beer selection, including a nice Stout. Service was fast and fun to get a little local history, but paid attention to everyone else while doing it…a trait of a great bartender. Bartender knew everyone’s story, even introduced my wife and I to another couple that live in the same city that we didn’t know. Live music outside in their little courtyard was pretty nice as well. Hard to beat their gulf oysters.

Went there with my son. I had a crawfish basket and my son had a dozen oysters and a salad.

The food was pretty good, the service was a different story. I didn’t even know who our actual waitress was. We noticed that if you didn’t buy alcohol you weren’t a priority. This was a first and probably last trip for us. Sad that I couldn’t give it a better rating but service and hospitality should come along with good food. I’d be ashamed of myself running a business the way this one is.

We’ll probably stop by again for some appetizers & cocktails again (& to try some items we haven’t tried yet). The crab cakes & cocktails were great. There were a few things we didn’t love, but that’s personal preference. Service was good & the place has a cool vibe & was really clean (always a plus… lol).

We went to AJ’s for the first time on Friday evening, and now I’m asking myself, why did we wait so long?!!! Omg, everything was so good! The gumbo was to die for (better than my mother’s), and the crab stuffed shrimp was also delicious. My husband and I basically ordered the same thing except he got fried okra as a side dish, and I got cheesy grits. Both were so yummy. Even the ice tea was so good! We can’t wait to go back and try other dishes, but it will be difficult not to just make a meal out of that gumbo!
