| - Like the name implies, there are some days that I simply find myself Cravin' Cajun. So away I went not too far back to try this place out.
I like the concept of "seafood in a bag" (as Paolo puts it). It's messy, it's fun, and there's a lot of food to pick through. We had a big table, so it took a little while to serve all of us, but once that matter was taken care of, the eating began.
Their crawfish are good. I got a 1 pound medium level spicy bag, and the serving was excellent. The problem with crawfish in general, however, is the fact that for all of its tastiness, it's just a little meat on that sucker. Don't misunderstand me. The choice was excellent and I don't regret it, but after seeing the shrimp that the others got, I know what I'm going to have to get the next time round.
They have other seafood/Cajun treats if "crustacean in a sack" isn't so much your thing, and their beer selection is fun. They have a beer served in a Buddha-shaped bottle that is top-notch, and the mugs weren't just frosty cold, they were freezing cold. That's going to be a great experience to check out when the weather warms up.
Prices were respectable, service was patient and friendly with the large crowd, and the bibs kept all the food bits off the front of the shirt (which you'll find that you are going to need).
I've been wanting to try this place for a while now, and now that I have, I have a justifiable reason to return. I'm still on my "Cajun Quest" to find THE perfect spot, but this is definitely a top ranking contender. I'll have to sample the other foodstuffs before I can give away such a title so easily.
But you're okay, little seafood place. You're okay.
