My husband and I have been eating at Cajun Kitchen for years, but it had been a long time since we’d been in. We ordered our long-time favorite shrimp and Andouille grits, and I have to say, it tasted exactly as it always had, which is phenomenal! The flavors are well balanced, and the portion is generous. We went with some friends so of course we had to get the beignets to share as well. They are the most lovely, light little pillows of heavenly taste you can imagine. This restaurant is a little gem in our beautiful city, and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes great flavors and a nice warm atmosphere. And don’t forget to get a bloody Mary (with bacon!) – you won’t regret it.

First time dining here with my daughter and some friends. We met up with some other friends that raved about the restaurant for breakfast. Food and service was great! Will return when in Ventura again.

Dog friendly. Great place and amazing pancakes. Highly recommend their waffles, comes with nicely served butter and syrup. When you order berries you actually get tons of them.

I had the shrimp and andouille. The food was pretty good but as a southerner familiar with Cajun food, I would recommend getting the grits right. The grits desperately needed salt, which is difficult to do tableside without over salting the rest of the dish because they are at the bottom of the bowl. Even so, the andouille was very flavorful and was the star of the dish. The restaurant is in a great location with a nostalgic atmosphere and the staff was friendly and efficient. I would like to go back at some point to try the jambalaya.

Cool little spot. Lots of options and the portions are very large. Definitely something you can split with another person if you’re not super hungry or not a big eater. Overall tasty and would go back to try other items on their menu. There’s indoor and outdoor seating on their back patio which is nice but it does feel a bit cramped/damp back there.

Can’t say enough good things about this place!!! My first time here; came with a group of 9. Our server was awesome!!! Everyone’s plates looked sooo good. I enjoyed my custom Denver omelette, sliced tomatoes, and bowl of mixed berries. I’m not much of a breakfast person, but this place is great and I’ll definitely return.
