And don't even get me started on the shrimp, sausage, and corn boil... it is FREAKING AMAZING. Seasoned to perfection, messy in the best way, and worth every bite. What really makes this place special though is Kevin, our guy! He welcomes everyone like family, never meets a stranger, and makes the whole experience even better. You can tell the pride and heart that goes into this place from the food to the service. If you're craving legit Cajun flavor with a warm, welcoming vibe, Cajun Bay is a MUST. We'll be back again and again!

Da-yuumm! On the way to Oklahoma, on I-35 we stopped at this unassuming southern eatery and were…read morenot expecting our minds to be blown away by the fabulous quality of Cajun food. We liked the food so much that we stopped here on the way back from OK We got the fried shrimp basket and shrimp poboy the first time and got the Boom boom Shrimp starter, Atchafalaya Etoufee and, Gumbo and rounded it off with Beignets the second time on Mother's day. Food is absolutely delish. Not visiting this place should be a felony

RATING - 3.65 Cajun…read moreCraft is found just off of one of the main roads that's runs along Waco. Off its first appearance, the restaurant appears as your classic no-frills, get-what-you-asked for establishment. There is lots of outdoor seating, very fair pricing, and a surprisingly extensive menu; I doubt you'll fail to find something you enjoy here. Overall it seemed like a location that would be bumping in conjunction with Baylor college nights, post church service, or otherwise Waco-oriented affairs. My only complaint was really the smell. We came near close when some workers were cleaning, however there was an apparent chemical stench within the patio, between the inside seating and outdoor seating. My partner ordered the sausage po boy, while I ordered the fried chicken plate, wish mashed potatoes & gravy + green beans. The wait was rather long, which can be attributed towards the chicken's cook time - which might be front scratch. After we got our plates, I certainly couldn't complain. The chicken was decently sized and decadent with flavor. Consistent, strong Cajun spicing littered the tray and chicken, while its interior was extremely juicy and filled with flavor; additionally, it still maintained structure and provided a nice crunch on the surface. The mashed potatoes were equally as enjoyable. The gravy complemented the potatoes well, and established an equilibrium through texture. The green beans however, were not my favorite. They initially appeared fine on the surface, but became watered down and lacking in flavor the farther down the bowl you went. I would not be surprised if these beans were canned. I would certainly find myself eating here again. Its biggest appeals are the prices, genuine quality of food, and disposition. It is not perfect, but it is more than satisfactory. If you cannot get over the minor inconveniences that you may run into here, then you probably shouldn't be eating Cajun anyways.

Everything was perfect, even their banana pudding with vanilla wafers. I feel that this company, is fair, honest, hiring great employees and I love all the signs and the pictures that are throughout the establishment. This is a great place to take friends and families..love the music and the ambiance. I WOULD RECOMMEND

Love Bayou Jacks!…read more First of all they are located in Roanoke and easy to park and walk to the restaurant. They have a huge offering of seafood and sides. My favorite is their fried shrimp and okra. If you have been to Pappadeaux then you know the prices are pretty high for fried shrimp and know that Bayou Jacks tastes better, the batter and shrimp flavor are really good at a more reasonable price. The service is great and they offer a casual dining experience. Please give them a try and become a fan!

We ordered the boudin egg rolls, boudin sausage appetizer, alligator appetizer, and crawfish with the voodoo seasoning. Everything was really flavorful and well seasoned, and the crawfish had a great kick. The appetizers were perfect for sharing and made it easy for everyone to try a few things. They also did a nice job accommodating our larger party. Our server was friendly, attentive, and handled our table well, which isn't easy with a group that size. The only thing that stood out was the manager. He didn't greet any tables while we were there. At one point he brought a dish to our table but didn't say anything, and later spent quite a while standing by the bar on his phone. It didn't negatively impact the service we received, but it did leave us a little unsure about the management presence. Overall, we had a good experience and enjoyed the food. The staff we interacted with were great, but management left us wondering. We'll still come back for the crawfish though.
