The OG Cajun spot in Birmingham. It's kitschy, friendly and delicious. The space is laid back with…read morean homage to New Orleans. There's an inside and patio so whatever vibe you're looking for you can't go wrong. There's plenty of seating for the crew and plenty of Louisiana beer on the menu to go around. The food menu has all the classics with a few twists. I ordered the viet Cajun seafood po'boy and a Marie laveau burger. The po'boy was excellent. The bread was soft and crackly, and held together nicely with the generously added shrimps and crawfish stuffed inside it. The lemongrass shines through if that's your thing then I would suggest ordering it. The burger was also exceptional. I only wish it were bigger. The pimento cheese and candied jalapeños turned this burger up a few notches. Soft bun, juicy patty, ya know all the good things about a burger were included here.

My husband and I finally got a chance to try this place out and have a much needed lunch date…read more It was Friday afternoon, so it was understandably busy. We sat outside and enjoyed eyeing all the eclectic decor. We waited a while before we got our drinks, but that margarita was worth the wait. One of the best I've ever had! I loved that it had a nice bit of spice. Our food was absolutely delicious We shared sandwiches and an order of fries and before we were done we already made plans to be back soon. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. Our favorite was definitely the Viet Cajun.

Went looking for Cajun food for Mardi Gras & Tim's was so fun and good we went 2 nights in a row…read more Pros: - Everyone is treated like family, Tim comes around and talks to every table. - The food is authentic Cajun cuisine with loads of flavor - large portions - live music and fun atmosphere - food and drinks specials weekly, check their socials - love the decor, feels like Louisiana in AL - the sweet roll that comes with platters is phenomenal!!!! Cons: - Very busy (was a holiday weekend), which is great for them - could just be slow w service at times. - Expensive priced crawfish compared to other spots in town $45 for 3lb w potatoes corn and sausage. I know it travels a ways to get here, just still pricey - Smoking area in garage/bar seating *if that bothers you* - cold out back depending on the time of year

You can't beat Tim's for authentic Cajun food esp their boiled crawfish. They even got the dipping…read moresauce game on point. We had some boudin balls also not pictured but they are amazing. Great staff and service even tho it was slammed due to crawfish season but that's expected on Friday and Saturday nights.

We came into town to buy a car and didn't finish the paperwork until about 1:30. By the time we…read morewere done, we were absolutely starving. We pulled into Papa Dubi's around 1:45, not realizing the kitchen closes at 2:00. We apologized and said we'd come back another time because we didn't want to be "those people", but the staff insisted it was no problem at all. That alone made a great first impression. We ordered quickly and went with the Cajun Sampler--Red Beans and Rice, Gumbo, Chicken & Sausage Jambalaya, and Crawfish Sauce over Rice. We also added hushpuppies and boudin. Every single thing was spot‑on delicious. Each sampler dish had the perfect balance of rice to main ingredients, and the flavors were rich, authentic, and comforting. The boudin was the real deal, and the hushpuppies were just as good. Brandon was our server, and he couldn't have been more friendly or accommodating, especially considering how close it was to closing time. For being this far from Louisiana, Papa Dubi's is absolutely doing it right. We'll definitely be back.

Everyone was super friendly, shout out to our server Brandon. Friendly and willing to engage in my favorite activity (small talk!) lol. To the food. I have an extensive list of food allergies and intolerances. So I will always review a place where I can find a good meal and not get sick or worse. I had the burger po'boy and it was great! Perfect ratio of burger to bread. The fries were pretty standard Sysco fair but I like their seasoned fries so all good. Hubs had the catfish lunch meal and he enjoyed it. Ordered the boy the crab cake meal and he loved it. Also got the 4 sides option as part of our to-go order - gumbo, red beans & rice, jambalaya, and etouffee. I hate soupy rice & beans, so I was happy to see that these were done right. They also tasted great. I wasn't able to try the other items (pesky seafood allergy) but they also looked good and smelled delicious. Definitely see us making a day trip in the future to eat here again.

The tables were not cleaned off and there were at least 6 tables and 3 of those tables stayed dirty the entire time we were there. Which we sat at the bar (figuring we would get a little faster service, NOT) so we sat down and after a long few minutes, the waitress came over and asked us what would you have, I said 2 menus, Please and she left came back a few minutes later and I ordered A Dozen grilled oysters grilled, my girlfriend ordered a cup of gumbo and the grilled shrimp, the grilled oysters (cajon style) were the worst "Cajun" that I had ever tasted and I have had it all over Louisiana. Then when I got my grilled shrimp w/fries and Cole slaw, it was a baked potato, and I never send anything back to the kitchen, anyway the Gumbo was flavorless all was mush except for the shrimp and that was like eating rubber. Bad service, I only tipped10%, bad food and a nasty place, I will never be back

I spent years in New Orleans, and I don't throw this around lightly. This is the real deal. The…read moreclosest thing to true Cajun cooking you're going to find without actually being back in South Louisiana. If you've ever had authentic Cajun food, you'll recognize it immediately. No shortcuts, no watered-down versions. Just straight, legit flavor. The owners are from Metairie, right off the north side of Lake Pontchartrain, and it shows in everything they put out. They've got both cooked and live crawfish, which matters if you actually know what a proper boil looks like. I have zero connection to this place. Found it by accident. I'll be back regularly. Cajun food sits just behind Korean for me, and this hit that nerve hard. Took me straight back to Lafourche Parish and my stepmother's cooking. That kind of food sticks with you. And yeah, it's in a gas station. Ignore that. If you know anything about New Orleans, some of the best po'boys you'll ever eat come out of spots just like that. Bottom line. This place isn't a novelty. It's a find.

Wanted seafood and what better choice than a boil. I went with combo 1 (snow crab, shrimp,…read moresausage, boiled eggs, potatoes, corn on the cobb). The seasoning choice is next, I did the juicy (cajun, garlic butter, lemon pepper). And finally choose the heat. I went medium and you could feel slight heat, a step up to hot would have been ok. The boil itself was good. You must use the gloves and bib, don't worry about cool points you are there to eat. The flavors of the juicy was great and all the seafood was seasoned nicely. The corn was excellent. And service was super fast. The portions are good, I know snow crab is a challenge to get the meat since the legs are thin. The flavor was good with a lot of work. Recommend the king crab.

Thankfully, the restaurant is pretty spacious, so we were seated right away without a wait.

I'd definitely recommend Juicy Seafood to anyone who loves seafood boils.
