Food Truck
Robert N.

My love for cajun food is epic! As soon as I hear about a place I go. This one proved to be a challenge just to taste the food. 3 trips in cross town rush hour traffic before I finally scored. $80 later I was beggared, disgusted and mortified. The truck is not reliable to be open during the hours published, the food was a farcical example of what cajun food should be. Canned seafood, burned beans, hair in the etouffee and unauthentic flavors are some of the issues. A cheap cheap version of the real deal, overpriced and huge mounds of rice in the bowl means you get very little real food. The good news is I will never have to brave cross town rush hour traffic for this place again.

Crawfish étouffée
Charlesea S.

Alexis is the owner and is very pleasant. She offers cajun cuisines in her cute little food truck thing. Her location changes and I also believe the menu rotates. I suggest getting the crawfish étouffée. It had a subtle spice, but not too spicy though. I did add a bit more cajun seasoning when I got home. If you're not a spicy food enthusiast, like myself, it'd be perfect! My only complaint is the portion (or maybe I was just starving). I'd love to have a bit more, luckily I did order the Deep Fried Bread Pudding to complete my meal. I really enjoyed the Bread Pudding bites. I am usually on edge about bread puddings because textures can vary but this was perfect. I did pick out the raisins, just because I am not a fan of them. I would definitely order again. I would visit again for the beignets and poboys... I did see she had breakfast as well on her instagram business page. My mom tried the Jambalaya... she said it was a bit dry. I do not eat pork, so I can not personal say. She really had her mind made up on the red beans and rice though.

You can't buy happiness but you can buy gumbo. And that's kind of the same thing. This food truck is packed with a whole lot of flavor. Alexis greeted me as soon as I walked up to the truck. Y'all, she serves king cake-flavored soda! I already knew what I wanted ahead of time but I noticed how patient and accommodating she was to all of her customers. The gumbo was full of seafood and so tasty, that I wanted to chuck my spork and drink the bowl like a kid drinking the last bit of milk from a bowl of cereal. The beignets were so pretty, with their blankets of sugar. I'm glad we were outside to enjoy them so that I can pretend that I was at Cafe Dumonde with the iced coffee that I brought with me. Oh, and be sure to get a side of raspberry sauce for the beignets. Total game changer! I wonder if the beignets ever think about me too...

The best Cajun food I have had in the actual whole state of Florida has come from this truck. My husband is from Louisiana and has a love for red beans and rice like no one I have ever met, and he agrees. The beans and rice (no surprise) is our favorite dish to order, and the seafood gumbo is a close second. It's the only seafood gumbo I have personally had with that much crab in it! I don't know if I would ever find fault with a beignet and so this is possibly moot buuuuuut the beignets are so good. Sooooo soooo good. And if you're lucky you will go when they have a special seasonal flavor too. And the cherry on top? The mom-and-daughter owners actually like people and service and the whole shebang. It's stellar food, the friendliest service, and generous portions. A win, win, win, in my book. The easiest way to find the truck is on her site, but she also does catering.

Red beans & rice  Banana pudding Jambalaya  Beignets
Maria D.

Cute little food truck with quality food. Location schedule posted weekly on their Instagram page! Don't be discouraged by the very limited menu-you honestly can't go wrong. Friendly employees to take your order or you can order online for pickup to make things faster! I got the jambalaya which was a large portion of well seasoned rice, sausage, and chicken mixed together. I was pleasantly surprised by the red beans and rice dish! Hearty red beans with sausage and white rice which had a little kick to it (just how I like it) Now for dessert you cannot go wrong with the creamy banana pudding & you can't leave without the beignets (don't forget to add a sauce) I got the raspberry sauce and wow what a great combo! Overall delicious I will definitely return.

Cajun red beans and rice
Dwayna P.

I was born and raised near the bayou so I was brought up eating some of the best Cajun food you've ever tasted. Being in Tampa Bay, that is one of the things I have missed until I encountered this food truck. I had the privilege of inviting Baton Roux to my neighborhood and the experience did not disappoint. I'll start with the Cajun red beans and rice. There are layers of flavors that very well balanced and only achieved with thoughtful slow cooking and love. The red beans are Cajun which means spicy, but not so spicy that you cannot taste and enjoy your food. Let's talk about the greatness of the desserts! I'll start with the beignets (not pictured because I devoured them as soon as I got them in my hands). She could teach a masterclass of how to make beignets. They are pillowy soft in the middle with perfect texture and melts in your mouth! The bread pudding intrigued me because I am typically not a fan of raisins, but I ate this in its ENTIRETY. Frying the bread pudding gave it a nice texture and the ability to eat with your hands, but the rum sauce makes it NEXT LEVEL. Baton Roux is on my list of flavor cravings! Follow them on Instagram, get their weekly schedule and find them and treat yourself!

Beignets

As a Cajun living away from home it has always been a challenge to find authentic Cajun food in Tampa. While I can cook them, sometimes it's nice to go out and experience it! A few weeks ago Baton Roux was at my apartment complex and I tried the beignets. So perfect. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with the right amount of powdered sugar (a LOT). Yesterday I went to the Odessa stop they made! I got the crawfish Etouffee and it did not disappoint. It was like eating my mothers cooking. I had the beignets again, still perfect. It's real deal Cajun food! Portions are big!

One of the owners actually came out and asked me and Hubs what we thought which we really appreciated! He was very kind.

The inside is a decent size with tables, cute decor and lots of plants. When I first walked in, I was taken back by how beautiful the pastry display cases were!! I had the hardest time choosing which pastry to get because they all looked like works of art!! Super friendly staff, great service but now to get to the goods: the coffee and pasties. This is a true authentic French bakery, no doubt in my mind. The iced salted caramel latte is the best I have EVER had. I could taste every flavor and it blended with the coffee perfectly. The ham and cheese croissant was so flakey, the perfect ham ratio and just all around fantastic. The pastry I got had raspberry jam and white chocolate ganache (I don't remember the name of it) and it was seriously the best pastry I've ever had. Most pastries can be too sweet, but this was just right. The jam tasted fresh and homemade (probably is!) and the white chocolate ganache gave it just a touch of sweetness. It is a little pricey so be warned: $48 for two coffees and two pastries. Definitely worth a splurge!!

You grab a tray and a pair of tongs and make your way through the bakery, with separate glass display cases for the sweet and savory pastries. You just pick whatever looks good -- which is dangerous because everything looks good! First of all, the prices are fantastic. Most of the buns are under $4. My absolute favorite was the ham and cheese bun. The bun is slightly sweet and the ham and cheese are savory, and the combination is SO good. The blueberry bun was another favorite -- it almost had a blueberry cheesecake flavor. We also tried the curry bun, which was delicious. We ordered several of the hot items too. The har gow (shrimp dumplings) were outstanding. They have a delicate steamed wrapper filled with plump, juicy shrimp, and these were honestly some of the best I've ever had. I've eaten in multiple restaurants in Chinatown in both Los Angeles and San Francisco, so that's saying a lot! The Shanghai dumplings, which are little soup dumplings filled with meat and broth, were also delicious. We also tried the steamed pork ribs. The flavor was very good, but steamed pork has a different appearance and there were some fatty pieces. I'm glad we tried them, but they're probably the one thing I wouldn't order again. Another huge plus was the pricing on the hot food -- every hot entrée we looked at was under $10. Between the two of us, we ordered seven different things, couldn't even finish everything, and our entire check was only $46. Great quality, great variety, and an incredible value. I will definitely be back. I was going to say I wish there were one closer to us...but maybe it's a good thing there isn't, because I would probably eat those ham and cheese buns every day! Five stars!

Extremely disappointing customer service, especially from the manager…read more I placed an order for two milk tea drinks at 1:24 PM. While waiting, I watched another customer receive her drinks even though I was already ahead of her by approximately four customers in line. At 1:32 PM, I approached the gentleman at the counter to ask about my order. He did not greet me or acknowledge me. He looked at my receipt, looked at his watch, and dismissively said, "It's not even 10 minutes." He then asked me, "What do you want to do?" When I asked what he meant, he told me I could either wait or get my money back. He checked in the back and came back telling me it would be another five minutes. I agreed to wait. Five minutes later, instead of simply addressing the delay or apologizing, he told me I could grab a bun while I waited. I explained that I already had a bun and that, considering the inconvenience and the way the situation was handled, I felt a discount would have been an appropriate gesture. Instead, he offered to refund my money and gave me another receipt without the drinks. The most disappointing part was Norman, the manager. At no point did he apologize, acknowledge the inconvenience, or make any genuine effort to resolve the situation professionally. As a manager, I expected him to step in, listen to the customer, and demonstrate some level of courtesy and accountability. Instead, his attitude left me with the very clear impression that he simply did not care whether he had my business or not. I completely understand that a bakery can get busy and that orders can sometimes take longer than expected. The issue wasn't simply the wait--it was the attitude and the complete lack of customer service. A simple apology and a professional response could have completely changed the experience. Unfortunately, I left feeling dismissed and unappreciated as a customer. Management should understand that customers remember how they are treated, especially when something goes wrong. I will not be returning, and I hope the owners take this feedback seriously and address how customers are being treated by management.

Think -- a less mixed blizzard with cookie & Nutella globs to eat mainly with a spoon and both a straw for when it begins to melt. The store itself is adorable.
