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.

    I was so afraid to host a dinner here for my friend’s birthday because of the reviews 😬 I have not been since they remodeled and let me just tell you the reviews are so wrong. We had a party of 12 had a fabulous time. service was impeccable! Great recommendations on food and drinks & very attentive staff. Restaurant wasn’t very busy, but people should definitely give it a try. Music wasn’t too loud so I could actually hear with everybody was staying at the table. Will definitely be back! The renovations are great and parking across the street is a huge plus, even though we found a spot right next to the restaurant.
