T-Johnny's!!! First visit by Natchitoches native, now Texan. Came home to down some crawfish &…read moreshrimp. Let me tell you 'bout this stuff. You're not a true Louisianan if you don't crave this cuisine. And sometimes other places that offer it make it too pricey or too spicy or too over-done. Not here! 'Boy howdy,' did this spot get it right & sail the flavor boat around the world without stopping!! Quick & friendly service. Lots of options with a la cart goodness. Seasoning that was JUST RIGHT!! Heat and warmth lasted throughout the meal so mine didn't get cold quickly. Sassy (which tastes buttery and salty) or Swamp (think Yum-Yum) sauces are fine selections to dredge the goods. My goodness, I forgot all about the competition across town at first bite. My crawfish claws and tails were SO fresh and tender I could easily crack it or pull out the meat and suck the umami juices. And when sucking the heads, the clear hint of lemon was there, just slap yo' mama already!! As we sat and ate, car after car after car pulled in and this was mid-afternoon, no lunch rush. People have been getting the memo that this Cajun spot is the place to go. Plus, the shrimp are YYYYUGE!!!! Only down side: not enough places to eat. Just the bar. The stools with no backs are hurting the hiney after an hour-long feeding and a thorough cleaning had to be requested as well as some paper towels/napkins at the minimal bar area to sit and chow. May I suggest more open and spaced seating arrangements could be added? T-Johnny's will be my go-to in Natchitoches in the quadruple parish area & it should be yours too--totally worth it!

Our favorite restaurant in Natchitoches let us down…read more Family gathering to celebrate 3 family birthdays in a 5 day period. Our table of 10 included people who drove from Jackson, Bossier City, Alexandria, and Many specifically to eat at Mayeaux's, a family favorite for special occasions since they first opened. The food tasted good, but every entree brought to the table was served lukewarm, only slightly above room temperature. None of us said anything at the table, each thinking it was only our plate and not wanting to spoil our get together. When talking about our dinner later in the evening, we found that we all had the same experience. They were busy as usual for a Saturday night, but nothing out of the ordinary. Inconsistent quality is damaging to a restaurant's reputation. We all agreed that it will be awhile before we return.

Party of 5, we ordered the Shrimp and Baked Potato Combo, Swamp Platter, and the Crawfish Etoufee…read more They were all subpar and disappointing. The potatoes came out lukewarm with very little butter, the etoufee was lukewarm and the platter was overcooked and the french fries were soggy in what tasted like old oil. The frog legs in the platter were pitifullly small. The butter tasted fake and oily. The waiter had a difficult time giving us the condiments we needed for some reason and there was no sour cream. What restaurant in existence doesn't serve sour cream?! This is a tourist destination, correct? Where is the pride in the famous Louisiana cooking? How this restaurant is still open I'll never understand. Steer clear of this place as it's way overpriced for the bad quality of food served.

I had catfish with crawfish sauce and substituted the au gratin potatoes for the french fries. The catfish was so salty and so breaded. I enjoyed the crispiness of it, but it was not outstanding to say the least and the crawfish sauce was rotelle dip with some crawfish in it. Was I ever disappointed!! A friend ordered corn and shrimp bisque that looked like squash soup of some sort and not fresh. She was not able to eat it. I do not enjoy giving a bad review, but I had waited years to eat there. I lived away from the area. We were a large party, but we waited one and a half hour for our food. I would love to go back and try again, but I really was so disappointed. I don't think I would go.
