So, who cares? Does the food taste good? That's what I care about and the food at the Cajun Yard Dog tastes good!
The restaurant is small and feels like the kind of place where after you visit a few times the wait staff gets to know you and you become a friend. I love that. The food (appetizer and entrees) arrived quickly, were correct and were delicious. The waitress was friendly and kept our drinks filled. She smiled pleasantly at our kids dropping noodles and fries on the floor. She was a winner:)
All the items we ordered were great. I am pretty sensitive to spicy food and my Shrimp and Grits were not spicy at all. I realize that most expect food at Cajun establishments to be spicy. If you like yours spicy, I am sure they will adjust the heat. The mac n' cheese was so awesome. I cannot imagine the calorie content, but it was stellar.
Personally, I can't wait to go back.
