The most authentic cajun food that we have had outside of Louisiana. The boudin balls were delicious, the cajun platter, as well as the shrimp and grits are well worth the drive.

The restaurant is quiet, clean, and has a pleasant atmosphere with nice decor. The burgers and fried catfish are very good. The gator bites had good flavor but were very chewy. The jumbalya was okay. Great customer service, the staff is very sttentive and keeps your drinks full.

Oh my GOODNESS this place was the BEST!! My husband and I just gobbled up the food and enjoyed every single bite. Our waitress was so wonderful and funny. This place is all of the best words in the dictionary combined (amazing , excellent , refreshing , fantastic, scrumptious) and good god almighty the bread pudding was so good it made me forget my name (my husband and I were wrestling for the last piece) We definitely will be coming back. I recommend this place if you want amazing Cajun food and Dessert. God bless the chef and his amazing cooking.

We stopped by while visiting some family. Best Cajun food I have ever had outside of New Orleans, completely on par with NOLA.

Gator bites (when available) were great! The homemade Cajun chips were really good. Everything else was ok. Blackened steaks: seasoning was too much, which is not unusual for blackened, but they were overcooked. Red beans and rice with Conecuh sausage: rice with beans, not much flavor and sadly, no sausage. Asparagus was fine, okra was ok. French bread was good. Service was ok, but the server seemed to be having a bad day: complaining about kitchen staff in front of the customers and generally kind of snarky. Overpriced for the value.

My wife and I went here for our first time. Absolutely amazing the food was delicious. I had the blackened snapper with rice and gumbo. Absolutely delicious. My wife went with the Zulu Burger and sweet potato fries. The fries were very good. The Burger was absolutely delicious. We will be back again. I highly recommend this place. Worth every penny. Authentic Cajun food..

This adorable restaurant is a gem!! A friendly greeting met us as we walked in. It’s a comfortable atmosphere. We started with the boudin balls for the appetizer. DELICIOUS!!! Then my husband ordered the seafood platter, and I ordered shrimp and grits. PPL IT’S ON POINT!! unfortunately, I had to pass on dessert, but I will be back . You want something good at good prices, look no further . We will be back.
