The crabs were wonderfully seasoned and meaty. They all had two claws and none were broken up. Extra butter was a plus!!!!

This is the best place in Philly for crab. My brother is from MD and brings crab all the time but it's not as good. I crave their crab!

Sometimes you have to give a place a second chance. Many…read moreyears ago, I visited Cajun Kate's Booth's Corner location and tried the alligator. I left thinking, "I probably don't need to come back." Fast-forward to today... I'm glad I did. We stopped at the Philadelphia Pike location and got Cajun Kate's Anniversary/Christmas Seafood Gumbo. This is a lovely little spot with great New Orleans-style decor, and the woman working the counter was fantastic. If I ever go on Jeopardy! and Cajun Kate's is a category, I'm feeling pretty confident. She gave us samples of the jambalaya and smoked sausage, and both were delicious. Then came the gumbo. Wow. Tons of different flavors, and you could taste everything. Nothing overpowered anything else--it all worked together beautifully. Cajun Kate's is officially back in our eating rotation. We took our gumbo over to Apothecary Brewing and grabbed a flight. We liked every beer we tried. They were clean and crisp--the way beer should be. A couple could have used a little more flavor for my taste, but overall, a very solid flight. Apothecary is a nice little spot with a fun, chatty crowd. And if you're looking for somewhere to grab a beer and bring dinner with you, this is a great combination. Cajun Kate's + Apothecary Brewing = a pretty good night in Claymont.

The best Po Boys, gumbo and Cajun specialties north of Louisiana. The Jambalaya is amazing too!…read more It's a treat to have this style of food without traveling hundreds of miles.

This place was recommended on Eater. It's the first place we've gone to from an Eater that we were…read moredisappointed in. There is duck bowling, which means they're small balls and pins, but they're only four lanes, so if you don't make a reservation, you won't be able to bowl. The families that were playing were enjoying themselves. I would come here to bowl and have specific, easy-to-make drinks. We grabbed seats at the bar because the restaurant seemed full, and sports were on the TVs. The bar seats were comfy, with backs on them, and there was a bar to rest your foot. It took a minute to get service, as it seems the bartender is the only one for the whole place. Maybe they need another bartender when the bowling alley and restaurant are both complete. I had an espresso martini, which was too sweet for me. My husband had a mule and thought it was good. My second drink was a tall Titos vodka soda. The bartender informed us that the menu changes on Tuesday, so they have no more crab, which is what I wanted. I was going to order the crab dip and the seafood mac & cheese. We pivoted to fried green tomatoes that were a little too breaded and cooked for me, but the sauce was good. We did get the seafood mac & cheese, but it did not have much shrimp on it. The shells were overcooked and combined, so you had to separate them and cover them in sauce, or the bite didn't have enough flavor. Also, the cheese sauce was a little soupy.

The level of attention demonstrated by the Manager, Alissa, Steve and Ashley was quite impressive!

Staff was friendly and on point from beginning to end. They do take the dress code seriously, I saw people get turned away for athletic wear. It's clear on their website and not asking too much for an upscale night out. Prices weren't ridiculous, especially since portions were plentiful. A lot of people were leaving with leftovers. The specialty drinks are a bit pricey tho. The cornbread and Mac n cheese are a must order the moment you sit down to start things off. Both served in a small skillet, perfect to share. The cornbread bread was flavorful and the butter that comes on top you def want to let that melt right in! The Mac n cheese noodles were a little softer than I would of preferred but the blend of cheeses and the crisp crust on top made me not worry about the doneness of the noodles, it was top notch! We went classic with the entrees - catfish with gulf shrimp. The catfish was cooked perfect super tender and flaky. I wasn't thrilled with the shrimp, for "gulf shrimp" as they listed in the menu they were a lot Smaller than I expected and a little tough. The sauce they came in was nice. I would have liked some kind of sauce on the side for the catfish. The collard green rice was delicious and the broccoli that came with it was prob the most delicious broccoli I've ever had, just cooked well in lots of butter! The other entree we got was the fried chicken. Really delicious and tender. It came with a sweet potato side that was yummy and a classic collard greens Even tho we were stuffed we had to try the bread pudding, it was served with a Side of delicious ice cream. The bread pudding was perfect! I would definitely return even just to eat and try more menu items but the jazz club is a must do! Beautifully decorated and classy establishment all around
