Man! We couldn't get out of there fast enough. We were hoping to find a cajun spot on this side of town. We normally drive to Avondale (Flavors of Louisiana) or Phoenix (Pappadeaux's). Not even better Baby K's. Some of the worst cajun food we've ever had. We started with the fried alligator & chicken wings. The wings hidden behind the house sauce was ok. The alligator was rubbery, bland & chewy. Bring extra teeth. The alligator pulled away from the breading & was knotty. The sauce it came with was good.
The ettouffie with andouille sausage, chicken and shrimp had body and color but lacked flavor. The chicken tasted as if it was boiled separately and added as an after thought. The catfish is rested on tasted as if it wasn't properly cleaned. It had a muddy flavor. I eat catfish all the time but this is not it. My wife had the catfish po boys. The presentation was amazing. They gave her a lot of food however, it must have been made with the same catfish from my dish. The catfish tasted dirty, muddy, rubbery & had knots also. Not good! They give you a lot of food. Unfortunately its alot of mediocre to bad food.
It wasn't all bad. The greens and the pot liquor it comes in was really good and flavorful. I wish the greens had more body & texture but the flavor was on point. The highlight of the meal was the hurricanes. Whoever made those drinks knew how to make it. Maybe that's the plan. Get you drunk so u don't mind the food.
The service was great. Loved Olivia!
So $100 later, we took 75% of the food home to throw away. For us...no need to revisit. Avondale here we come!
