Realistically this place doesn’t deserve more than about two stars. I’m giving it 3 because of the fried catfish and Grilled chicken(expectedly someone from Texas shouldn’t mess that up too bad). This place however is not only inauthentic in regards to their Cajun food, it’s just plain bad. Let’s start with the fried gator. The pieces were so small and overcooked that they may as well have served us just bits of fried breading. That added to the simple fact that the fries were the primary item on the plate with maybe 8 nickle sized bites of the gator actually ordered thrown in the mix. The fries were good however. 2/10 The chicken and andouille sausage gumbo I don’t believe ever had any resemblance of a holy trinity cooked into the roux which alone tasted as if it was burnt (if they weren’t using a cheap pre-made roux to begin with). The sausage and chicken was so over cooked it simply disintegrated when eaten and turned into a grainy goop rather than the lightly rubbery resistance one expects when eating gumbo. 2/10 The Crawfish Etoufée was a whole different story. Altogether. Flavor was terrible and tasted nothing of the crawfish flavor expected from an Etoufée or one that I’m used to growing up in south Louisiana. The dish had WAY too much salt and the size of the crawfish was simply laughable. I could have made better Etoufée using the frozen crawfish tails found in your local Walmart frozen seafood section. 1/10 Took about 30 minutes to seat our party of 6 + 2 children and a baby. They upcharge for credit card -vs- cash payment by about $5. The “atmosphere” of New Orleans is completely lost on this restaurant apart from the cheap swampy murals covering the walls and “ laissez le bon temps rouler” lights outside. I’m sure the locals love their fake little “cajun” restaurant to justify the 4.5 star rating online. But anyone who’s ever had or made authentic cajun food knows that this place bears no resemblance to the real deal and certainly not even close enough to justify the $102 price tags my wife and I plus our son paid. I took a few bites of my friends and wife’s meals which included grilled chicken/mushroom dishes and fried catfish and those were pretty tasty. I sat in envy as I wished I’d ordered theirs. Owners should consider a rebrand to a steakhouse and I bet they will be wildly successful. 3/10 stars total. If you want to know what real cajun food tastes like steer far away from this place.

Been awhile since I visited here and I wasn’t disappointed this time either. I had the jalapeño Catfish with green beans and rice. The catfish was great tasting no fish taste at all. The batter is crunchy and seasoned well. The green beans are an acquired taste but spicy and I love them. As always the garlic toast is a hit. Don’t forget the fondue in the appetizer with extra bread….delicious!

Never disappointed coming here. Went on cruise night and enjoyed viewing some beautiful cars. I appreciate that they always ask if I want my shrimp hot/cold and peeled. Alligator was a great appetizer!

Oh my gosh!! You have got to eat here!! I had the fried catfish and it just melts in your mouth. It's crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. The hush puppies, fried okra, and french fries are super crispy yet tender on the inside. My daughter had the alligator and we were just blown away. It was incredible! She also had the fries and the broccoli and she said the broccoli was the best broccoli she's ever tasted. It's worth every penny.

Food was amazing. Service was top notch. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

The food can be spicy but not overly so. They have the standard Cajun and Creole fare (etoufee, jambalaya, boudin, and gumbo) with other specialty dishes and steaks. Our favorite is Savanna's Stuffed Filet, a 10 Oz ribeye with a crawfish, shrimp and crab stuffing. It's really good.

Great customer service. Our waitress Ashley was very attentive, very clean and courteous. The food was fresh and had lots of flavor.

Not pictured, my husband's jalapeno catfish. We have been here 3x and it has been delicious every time (he may have ordered it 3x)! Their side salad is freshly cut lettuce, not that bagged salad taste. The fried shrimp were definitely hand battered, even the kid's popcorn size shrimp look/taste hand battered! Our server in the bar area greeted us and immediately wiped down the table without us asking tonight. We have had super friendly service all 3 times and that also makes a business memorable! 👏 👏

The staff is friendly with good smiles. The boudin is fantastic but the main course of fish and jambalaya needs a great deal help with less salt, more spices, flavor maybe a course on how to cook rice that is not mushy. I am not sure I would recommend the place as the prices are far too high given the food quality.
