My first time with Cajun food and this hole in the wall (literally) restaurant was the perfect start!!! I got the Catfish Poboy and my husband the Shrimp! It was large, had a ton of spices and flavor, and was just oh so good! We will definitely be back for the food and service - highly recommend to others! read more

If your living in or visiting the Pacific Northwest & looking for excellent New Orleans cuisine, this is your place. No fancy restaurant, just delicious food made to order and ready to pick up. We had the Seafood platter (2), Red beans and rice and Mac & cheese. Plenty of food! read more

Battle’s Kitchen - Seafood platter (2), Red beans and rice and Mac & cheese - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Ferndale, Washington

I'm from New Orleans and also enjoy cooking Cajun food. My first impression : 4/5 stars Red Beans and Rice aka "Nawlins Caviar" : creamy red beans, minced pieces of sausage , over white rice - seasoning just right - Very Good Fried Cajun Seafood Platter Basket - 6 medium fried shrimp , 2 medium sized pieces of fried catfish filets, one piece of fried halibut filet with skin , and 1/4 lb crinkle cut French fries, and two hand made hush puppies. Breading ( seasoned cornmeal/flour ) on fish and shrimp. Seasoning flavor was good ; a little too much salt in breading for my taste buds - but taste is personal; served with different dipping sauces. Hush puppies - a little too dense/heavy for my taste ( prefer an equal mixture of corn meal: corn flour, a little sugar with Cajun seasoning , egg, and water. These hush puppies also had small bits of shrimp in the batter. Good Cajun Shrimp and Grits with butter garlic sauce- Creamy grits , great flavor especially with garlic butter sauce. Shrimp were nice size ( 6 ) and mildly seasoned - Very Good Battle's Kitchen food is much preferred over Bayou- on the Bay. Owners/cooks are from Louisiana and they are both familiar with Cajun cooking and seasoning. They will offer New Orleans Po-Boys once they receive their shipments of New Orleans French Bread. They also cater and do seafood boils for your gatherings. Give Earnest and Damien a call/text 360-927-5066 or email gator985@gmail.com. I will return to try their other menu items.

Thank you Yelp for helping me find this little gem! Great fried catfish! Three different dipping sauces and all were delicious. Generous portions on the Seafood Basket. Shrimp and Catfish and fries with a roll. $19 is more than fair. Friendly service too. It's tucked away without a very big sign but keep looking and you'll find it. They gave me enough so I'll have a second meal. Delicious! read more

My family and I found Battle's Kitchen while scrolling through yelp for a quick bite before our flight back home. We were ecstatic to find a seafood spot less than ten minutes away from the Bellevue Airport. The restaurant is located in an office building with a service window and outdoor seating. The owner, Ernest Battle, was running the window and was an absolute sweetheart! Ernest provided incredible customer service and was even kind enough to explain menu items to my family and I. The food was delicious! Everything was seasoned, boiled, and/or fried to perfection. The strawberry lemonade is a must! The portion sizes were more than generous and we now we have snacks for the ride home! read more

Battle’s Kitchen - Cajun chicken strips & fries - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Ferndale, Washington

I give this new spot (new to me at least) 5 stars for a very positive experience at the order window, nice fresh greens on the salad, actual bacon in the bacon bits (and not that weird fake bacon but stuff), and tasty grilled shrimp with a very fair amount on the salad. It was a little pricey for a salad in this area but worth it for the quality of ingredients. It's worth checking out!!! We also tried the biscuits and found they had a nice flavor. Would be great with gravy I'm guessing! read more

The food is great and the people are friendly good vibes Reminds me of home. The lemonade was good too! read more

Battle’s Kitchen - Shrimp Poboy - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Ferndale, Washington

Super fucking gas. Red beans and rice BUSS. Seafood Mac and cheese BUSS. Wings were a little small and I didn't try my choice of flavor because my friend got them but they were BUSS too. For dessert I got the banana pudding, imo could use more nilla wafer cookies but other then that BUSS. Definitely recommend read more

Just a random stop for lunch because we were hungry and it was there. So glad we did. Had the Cajun Seafood Basket, Philly Cheesesteak Poboy and a baked potato. They all lived up to their moto of 'no bad bites'. The best of the best food was the Peach Cobbler. The best of the best experience was the service. Truly kind and caring people. We were on our way home to Seattle about two hours away and are already thinking about reasons to come back. read more

Friendly, fast and amazing food! Seafood Mac is stellar! Prices are fair for what you get and my mouth wants more. Thank you!

First time goer. Battles kitchen is a Louisiana cuisine kitchen. I had the shrimp Etoufee. It was delicious. My wife had the shrimp and crab macaroni. The dishes were amazing. The staff was great. You can tell they take pride in their cooking. It's more of a take out, but they have a few tables outside. I hope more people try it out and see what they are missing. Maybe they can grow into a sit in restaurant. Thanks for your great food and service. read more

Swear to God, as soon as I took the first bite of their food I swore I heard live Jazz playing in the background. This is legit Cajun food the likes of which I haven't eaten since I was growing up in Arkansas. If I could give this place ten stars, I'd do it. read more

Mac and cheese, baked potato and banana pudding were all delicious!! I wish they had more hours on the weekends but I plan to eat here again for sure. read more

This place was amazing! The food was like I remembered it was when i was in New Orleans. Please support it. I would hate for a great place to not survive. Service was fantastic and the owners are hard working and so accommodating. We are leaving for six months to the east coast and really need it to be here when we get back. We went on a beautiful day and sitting outside was great. read more

Great food and sweet tea !! Service was excellent and got my food on time. Outside ambiance is great also. read more

Wow, their crawfish ettoufee is so darn good! Portion was sizeable, food came out hot and smelling delicious. Great flavors with a delightful kick. Well packaged, no spills. The gentleman at the counter was friendly and enthusiastic about their food (and for good reason)! I'll be back to try more of their menu items. read more

OMG, Everyone has been talking about this place lately and I've never in my whole life had chicken and shrimp taste THIS GOOD. The breading go crazy, if only i got my hands on this breading recipe i'd be eating this every night. It's so flaky it melts in your mouth, Better than any restaurant chicken and shrimp. For only $15-$18 this is amazing, and you get so much. Fries and a dinner roll included in your meal. And to mention their cajun sauce is sooo good! they need to start selling it!! I'd love to use their sauce at home with fries or chicken. Their lemonade is a 10/10 so many flavors, and FRESH FRUIT!! Get the mango lemonade ! so soo good. Lobster mac n cheese is as well like everything else , top tier yummy I need to try their other menu items. Ate here already twice in 1 week. Try this place now!! read more

The food is absolutely delicious. Louisiana flavors in every dish. Very friendly and customer service at its best. Catfish is my favorite with red beans and rice. read more

Extremely good Cajun food! Their fried halibut was so tasty. The breading on their fried seafood is spot on. I highly recommend checking them out! read more

Recommended by a co-worker. I have to say they know how to bread their fish. So light and tasty. Not greasy. The sauce is excellent.the chicken wasn't bad either. read more

Food was good and look forward to going back. Definitely give them a try. Have patience, they are a two person operation. Oh, and no indoor seating available. So, plan for the weather if you want to sit outside there to eat. read more

The food is terrific, some of the best gumbo I've ever had along with the shrimp and grits. The food is spot on amazing southern cuisine that's worth every penny. Everything we've ordered from here has been so flavorful it makes you want to go back the very next day(I did). The guys here are some of the nicest dudes you'll ever meet and seem to really take pride in the food they putting out and the way they treat customers. Sometimes the wait can be a few minutes so if you're on a time crunch I would keep that in mind, but after you taste the food you'll see why it's 100% worth it. They've got great food, great people, and great service. read more

Food tasted great, great seasonings! Got the Seafood Basket and Chicken Basket. Both tasted great. Only wish the chicken strips were a little bigger! Other than that, the food was great! We'll definitely gonna be going back! read more

Delicious Cajun food and super friendly N'Orleans service! Excellent little spot! Cajun Mac

Battle's is a must try if you haven't had it yet! The food is always delicious and the serving sizes are soulfully generous. The friendly service you get at the window is genuine and you can tell they love making people's day with the great food. I know I'll be back for a plate of this Cajun food at least once a week. read more

I can talk all day about the flavor of the food and how it had the right amount of Cajun spice in every bite, from the Mac and cheese to the shrimp to the chicken, but none of that compares to the customer service. It feels dantastic when you feel as if you are the focus. Enjoyed it a ton and will be back on our way back to the airport. read more

This is some great Cajun food! The Crawfish Etouffe was outstanding and the seafood bar was fantastic! Well worth the drive.

OMGOSH!! I heard about this Battle's Kitchen from a friend who was looking for fried catfish too. We decided to stop in spur of the moment to try it out and MAN! It was like a trip home to the South!! The owner is a New Orleans native and brings the flavors of the South to life through his food. We both ordered the Catfish & Shrimp baskets which came with crinkle fries and a roll. Peach lemonade & Blackberry were the drinks of choice. There is no indoor seating so everything is in To-Go containers BUT there are picnic tables there if you just can't wait to dig in to the deliciousness!! Fast forward...the smell of the food on the ride home brought back memories of being in the South and I was thinking, "Maybe we should have just grabbed a table there". LOL. The catfish was fried perfect and tender. Nothing like perfectly seasoned cornmeal dusted fried catfish The shrimp were just a tad bigger than popcorn and fried perfectly as well (no Tempura batter here). There was a remoulade sauce for dipping everything if you wanted. If you know, and I do know, what Southern catfish tastes like then GO and get you some be amazed; if you WANT to know, you NEED to GO and taste for yourself what true Southern cooking tastes like. Next up for me will be the Shrimp & Grits. These folks have brought their NOLA flavors to the PNW and you need to go and experience them for yourself! read more

Friendly staff! My boyfriend and I went by for a quick bite and food was great! We ordered the Cajun chicken strip basket and Mac and cheese. The Cajun Mac and cheese was amazing! I will be going back! read more
