There are some times when my taste buds want to feel like they are on a vaycay to NOLA without having to go any farther than NoDa, for those times there is Boudreaux's.
They have a solid menu, ranging from Po' Boy sandwiches to full on, dig-your-heals-in entrees. The bf swears by the Jambalaya. I'm more of a Shrimp & Grits gal myself. Honestly though, I've never had a bad dish there so feel free to go with what speaks to you. If it happens to be Sunday, I tempt you (well THEY tempt you) with brunch between 11:30-3. Stop by, order up a cajun bloody mary and enjoy the soulful sounds of the vibes player (or whoever they have performing this week).
Last time we were there Boudreaux's was surprisingly empty and for the life of me I can't see why. The server was sweet, the food was, as always, tasty and they Hurricanes were half price. Charlotte, get on in to Boudreaux's next time you are craving some cajun and laissez les bons temps rouler.
