    Scallops over pasta
    Joshua R.

    Let me start with - I have wanted to visit Knotty Pine on the Bayou for a long time. It has been on my list for over two years. So I went in with high expectations - me being someone who loves Cajun food. The pros: The help was very good. Our waitress was kind and she knew the menu well. The ambiance was good - we got there right when they opened for dinner at 5pm, so there was no wait, and we got our food quickly. The okays: The food. I LOVE etouffee - but I was disappointed. It was kind of one-note and just okay. The fried alligator bites were also okay, as were the jumbo shrimp (they come with the heads on). My friend had the special scallops over pasta, and he said they were the best scallops he had in his life - so maybe I just misordered. No real negatives. I just was really excited to be blown away by Cajun food, and it was just okay.

    The crab cakes were perfect and the potatoes and okra were perfect adds!

    Karissa took total care of us. But the whole team was so great. We felt like regulars here which was awesome. The food was delicious as well. The portions are yooge so come hungry! We love it all. The crab cakes were nicely prepared and full of flavor. The potatoes and okra were really great sides too. The shrimp and pasta were flavorful and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. I plan on trying the gumbo next trip. My wife had it and it was fabulous. We enjoyed our time here and so will you. Plan on stopping in. They'll take great care of you and you won't leave hungry!

    We had absolutely amazing service for my son's birthday. He wanted a nice dinner and they put a candle in his steak which was awesome. The food was absolutely delicious there and next day as leftovers. I did not expect a place straight out of Louisiana right here in Kentucky!

    Blackened Scallops Pasta

    The food and drinks were amazing. Not pictured but the crab cakes were probably the best I've ever had. The service wasn't great but it was also the holidays and they were probably short staffed so I'll give them a break.

    Knotty pine is such a fun way to get food we normally can't find in our area. Between the alligator, crayfish and gumbo you really can't go wrong. The staff is always super nice, they take great care of their guest! And when you walk in you are transported to Louisiana. The art on the walls and all the decor is just great. Perfect date night spot if you're looking to try some different things and good for the family too!

    Oyster bienville
    Dee W.

    This was very good! We had the oyster bienville and it was ok and pretty small for the price. Everything else was fantastic. Creole sauce had a bite with the scallops. Gumbo was great. Fried sea bass was exceptional. I loved the grits and collard greens. We shared the opera cake and it was fine. It was a moist piece of cake with an intersting texture of very sweet frosting.

    Sidewinder fries with Cajun gumbo
    Janice W.

    We had a great meal at Knotty Pine on the Bayou. The portions are huge, the service was good, and everything was served hot. The sidewinder fries with Cajun gumbo as an appetizer is literally enough to feed 4 to 6 people, it comes out on a platter. The restaurant does get very loud on the weekends if that is something that you do not care for. We will definitely return!

    Food was okay. Wouldn't recommend if you have children. Service was a little rough in terms of attitude.

    I ordered food for myself, my husband & my two kids & I knew I should have checked my bag, I…read moreusually do but they were so busy & I felt rushed & I shouldn't have to double check that they got my order correct - I got home & seen I received someone else's order! ! ! ! I had to spend more money ordering pizza because I live 25 minutes away from Cane's. We were really looking forward to their special sauce, chicken & soft bread.

    This was my first time ever having Raising Cane's food. Upon walking near the counter I was…read moreimmediately asked if I was helped and then the service continued to be great. I told them it was my first time and the young lady behind the counter told me about their food and the young man next to her recommended that I order my toast "Buttered on Both Sides" or "BOBS." I ended up getting the Box Combo with his suggestion. The food came out rather quick and it was very fresh. The chicken was Top 3 for fast-food chicken, the fries were fine--fresh but not fantastic, and the coleslaw was good. But that bread, buttered on both sides, was the best bread I have ever had at a fast food restaurant, and is the reason I am now sitting in my truck in the Raising Cane's parking lot writing this review. Their menu was very small and simple: chicken tenders, bread, fries, coleslaw, sauce, and drinks--nothing else. But I can now tell you that everything on the menu is great! Don't expect a huge variety of styles of chicken and a bunch of sides to choose from, but if you want chicken tenders, fries, coleslaw, and bread, come expecting an amazing meal with nice service.
