Super friendly waitress (checked on us often and even made conversation), comfortable pay-at-the-counter atmosphere, albeit quirky October christmas decorations--probably still up from last year.
We got a ton of food for a table of 4 for super cheap. We got two burgers, a half shrimp poboy, and a half a muffalata, but started with some sides: large (8) mozzarella sticks, a large fried pickle, a large fry, and a small red beans and rice. We had a ton of leftovers. Two of us couldn't finish our sandwiches and the other two felt too full because they did.
The batter they use for the fried shrimp and the fried pickles is the best: crispy, well salted, sticks to the food really well without falling off (reminds me a little of Popeye's chicken batter). These will be the best fried pickles you've ever had! The fried mozzarella (although I doubt homemade) and the mozzarella on the muffalata was good quality cheese, super oozy and awesome. Well seasoned burgers and krinkle fries (Tony's I think). Tasty unsweet tea.
Easily my new favorite restaurant. I can't wait to try more of the menu.
I guess I will start by saying that I was an avid Urban Spooner. I never chose a restaurant without it, unless it was maybe fast food. A little disappointed that my review content didn't carry over to Zomato, but I will try to stay positive amongst the onslaught of dark reviews. Good luck Zomato. You have large shoes to fill.So, as far as Acadian PoBoys goes, I will start with the environment. It's a standard Cajun Po-Boy type small restaurant. Fairly new and clean. Perfect quick lunch stop if you don't have a lot of time. The lady at the counter was very cordial, although the fact that she was Asian concerned me considering this was Cajun food. She asked if I wanted to pay when ordering or wait until I was done. If I were eating with a large group, I would have likely chosen afterward, to better judge gratuity amount, but I went ahead and paid before while leaving a standard tip. One of the things that caught my eye on the menu was the alligator sausage poboy. I chose the 6" with a non-sweetened tea. The standard dressing is lettuce, mustard, and mayonnaise. I opted out of the mustard and went with just lettuce and mayonnaise. This was my second experience with the alligator sausage poboy, and I was quite concerned since my first experience was so good. To mention a little bit about that, my first experience was at the Franklin Bear Festival where a young man was serving these out of a tent.My food came fairly quickly, but that was sort of expected since it was after 2pm. When I took the first bite it was like being transported back to the Bear Festival. I know you all are thinking, a festival, but I can assure you it was a fabulous first experience. It was identical. The poboy bun was the light flaky and lightly toasted melt in your mouth bun that I had experienced before. This was half of the reason it was so good. The alligator sausage was also good. For those of you who are considering trying it, just think medium hot link if you are scared. Its a well seasoned Cajun sausage. I chose to leave quickly in fear that I would most definitely order another if I didn't, and I am trying to watch my health.The bread is what made the sandwich, although the sausage was definitely good. I plan on trying the fried or grilled shrimp poboy next. You know a good shrimp poboy is good if you don't smell or taste iodine, which requires proper shrimp prep-work. The only reason I gave it a 4.5 was because I hadn't eaten but one item on the menu.Stay tuned and lets see if they can move the marker of 4.5. Next visit will come with pictures.
Best fried shrimp platter ever! Super fresh, shrimp are peeled and deveined on site. The service was excellent!!!
