An unpretentious hole-in-the-Wall in downtown Houston. David the proprietor is folksy and charming and knows his Cajun food. Cold beer in the cooler includes Pabst and Lone Star—of course! I had the jambalaya and would recommend. Food is spicy for you wussies. Jalapeño cornbread optional but should be the default. Now serving lunch and dinner. Go!
The place is long on atmosphere. Tables that look out of a 50s diner, various Louisiana nicknacks, and a mixture of 50s/60s R&B and "swamp pop" on the speakers.
The shrimp poboy was wonderful with crusty bread and a nice portion of shrimp, well seasoned fries and I enjoyed the fresh squeezed strawberry lemonade to drink.
Dessert was absolutely orgasmic bread pudding. Yum yum yum.
Make this a stop if you're in Houston.
Authentic New Orleans cuisine in downtown Houston. I feel like I’m in a diner in Nola every time I come to Zydeco. Every day has its own specials.
I came here for lunch after coworkers ranted and raved about their food and welcoming atmosphere. After checking out the lunch menu prices, there was no way I was paying $11 for 2 pieces of fried chicken.
But boy was I mistaken… the fried chicken and juicy, full of flavor and moist. But it doesn’t stop there. You get 2 sides (I picked red beans/rice, flavorful green beans) & corn bread (regular or jalapeño). $11 is really a great deal considering all the food they give you. The rice and gravy is also super amazing. I didn’t have to put salt/pepper or Tony’s on anything! I’ll definitely make a return visit at least twice a month, maybe more. The vibe is super old school with tons of office employees that walked from their respective buildings. 5 stars!!
Zydeco Diner is an amazing spot to grab lunch and try Louisiana kitchen. Also easy reachable from GRB convention center. Every food we tried was so tasteful and very fresh at more than a fair price. The owner Marty is one of a kind, super welcoming and hospitable. Being back in Houston absolutely means visiting Zeydeco for me. Thanks for the amazing experience!!
Excellent food. Big crowd. No table service, but food was fresh and placed at the pickup window quickly. Reasonable price. My brother and sister-in-law have eaten here often and they love it, too.
I had the crawfish, corn and green beans and loved it!! I come here almost twice a week now when I’m at work. The atmosphere is relaxing and the food is Delicious. You must give them a try. I’m So excited they are even doing take out of some of their most popular dishes in the bowl size at night now!
No lines. The food was good. I chose the stuffed pork chops and it was cooked perfectly. I really liked the chicken rice. I chose 4 stars because there wasn’t many sides that I liked to eat in general.
Great little find. I had never been there and the kitchen staff explained what everything was to me. I also had a wonderful conversation with their mother who happens to also work there. Good food at a great price with a wonderful staff. The owner was nice to.
Came in here because it's close to my job and I fell in love! I had a bowl of gumbo and it was just like I was in Louisiana. Super hardy and flavorful not to mention the staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. It had such a homey comfortable feel to it! 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
I thoroughly enjoyed the crawfish, corn, and green beans dish! It has become a regular craving of mine since I started coming here twice a week during work. The ambiance of this place is so calming, and the food is absolutely delightful. I highly recommend giving them a try. Moreover, I'm thrilled to share that they now offer take-out for some of their top-notch dishes in convenient bowl sizes during the evenings.
Located on corner of Pease St. I was excited they had parking until I was greeted by Marty & took my first bite. I felt like in was in Louisiana eating moms cooking 😋 & listening 🎶 to Cajun tunes. The entire time holding back the sniffles from a great seasoned meal (black-eyed peas, rice, green beans & corn) folks from Louisiana could relate & appreciate. It was so good I ordered food for 🍽 dinner.
