SO YUM! Our group enjoyed everything we ate here! After chit chatting a bit about what we had our…read moreeye on + any suggested menu items the owner would recommend, we decided to order:
Joe's Spicy Burger with fries
Fried Catfish Po'boy with fries
3 Spicy Wings with fries
The Joe's Spicy Burger did not disappoint. During our friendly conversation, Joe let us know this was a recipe made by him that he's honed over the years. Admittedly, when I think of Cajun flavors and/or cuisine, my immediate thought never thinks burger. So, I was skeptical. After one bite, though, I was a complete convert. A definite must-try!
No complaints about the Catfish Po'boy. The sauce, seasoning, and spice level was on point. It was also served with a homemade tartar sauce that was tasty.
As good as everything was, the Spicy Wings were the stand-out IMO. These wings are less - wait, nothing - like standard Buffalo Wings. They were more in the realm/world of an expertly piece of Southern Fried Chicken. To begin with, it was an ENTIRE wing - basically the size of your hand or the equivalent to about 9 wings. The entire tip, flat, and drum are fried intact, yielding a super crispy bite here, a juicy succulent flat there, finished off with a meaty, few bites of a drum. Nothing burnt, dry, or overcooked. Again, the meat was so moist, the crunch so satisfying, and the seasoning/flavor - beyond.
I have to touch on the fact that the owner/chef seriously came across happy to be cooking for us in the midst of 100+ weather. The service wasn't over-the-top or gimmicky in the least. All of us thought and felt this person/food truck team was simply there because they genuinely wanted to be. Simply put - both the food and staff left us feeling good. :-)
I'm only sorry I didn't try their red beans and rice or a couple of other menu items that weren't available at my particular time of visit. No worries though, because I'll definitely back.
