Rick Hogue, EcoBroker, RealtorSeptember 8, 2011What can I say. Best Cajun in town. Try the gator tail appetizer. It is wonderful. Also they have a 3 dish all you can eat meal that will fill even the hungryest appetite.
Jennifer DillardApril 10, 2014The softshell crab is AMAZING and oysters on the 1/2 shell is a MUST! Top it off with a little Cajun beer and you've got it made!
City SaverAugust 8, 2013Use your Louisville City Saver coupons to receive 50% off any lunch menu item (up to $4 value), or $5 off your purchase of $25 or more (excludes "all you can eat" and specials).- My favorites are the jambalaya and chicken creole with an occasional half-order of butterfly shrimp. Also try the bread pudding, Cajun popcorn, and red beans & rice.
Catfish, jambalaya, ah heck everything is great there, especially the service!
David EstesApril 2, 2012The Cajun Popcorn and Alligator Tail is pretty much the best thing I've ever eaten in my life! Can't go wrong there.
Eric AshleyJune 8, 2014The food is essentially mall quality, mass produced food. That's ok. But in a city FULL of incredible culinary options that use locally sourced food; there are just much better choices.
Drove all the way down from Chicago for the Boiled Crawfish !! Well worth the 6 hour ride !!!
Jessica GardnerApril 14, 2013Awesome jambalaya and catfish! The bread is really good and Kelly is a GREAT waitress.- Food and service great as usual but the band tonite was awesome!
If your hungry go for the all you can ear lunch special. It's a better deal than the large lunch meal.
Christina CollinsOctober 8, 2011It's says you can text dabayou to 72727 for coupons sent directly to your phone.

"Though it is a quick in and out place, the food is pretty authentic Cajun. Try the crayfish etoufee."

"If the weather's fitting, you can't find a better patio atmosphere. A great choice with clients!"
Derek Johnson - 7.5
"Bourbon street chicken is the best for me because I hate spicy food and its deliciously buttery and sweet, but my boyfriend absolutely raves about the Voodoo chicken!"
