We have walked by here dozens of times over the years and commented on how great it smells. So we finally decided to give it a try. The inside is well decorated and very welcoming. The doorway is small and not conducive to two way traffic. The tables are well spaced and the tvs had games on and were easy to see. I ordered the Jambalaya and my wife ordered the shrimp and grits and the crab claw appetizer. The crab claws were small but tasty. The jambalaya was well seasoned and had plenty of meat. The rice was a little undercooked, but still good. The shrimp and grits was excellent. The only down side was the lady (not sure if she was the manager or owner or what), growling and arguing with our waiter. Staff discussions belong out of sight of customers. He left and we got a new waitress. He was good as far as I could tell. There were several male staff members leaning against a wall doing nothing. Too much staff standing around. Kind of pricey for the quality and quantity, but I’ll probably go back.
OMG! The aroma itself draws you in. Real and authentic spices and food. We loved EVERYTHING! Highly recommend the Blackened Red Fish, Red Beans, Fried Catfish & Grilled Oysters on the half shell.
We had a great experience at this quaint eatery in the French Quarter. We were drawn in by the swamp and bayou platters, which offer a sampling of fares. We ordered and shared both platters after settling in. The bayou platter had red beans and rice, jambalaya, and shrimp and grits. The swamp platter had shrimp creole, blackened alligator, and crawfish etouffee. Everything was seasoned well and full of flavor. The platters were a lot for two people. We also shared a bread pudding, which was hot with a balanced sweetness. Service was friendly and helpful. Prices are fair for the area. I would go back.
