Located in the same plaza as Jamaican Vibez. They offer dine & carry out. Staff was practicing covid safety wear masks. I ordered the kids fish meal. I am not sure what kind of fish it was but I was getting a flounder or grouper maybe & a butt load of sides including Mac n cheese, green beans w/ potatoes, crawfish étouffée & red beans & rice. Yes y'all they have all that but sadly none of it was bomb. I give 3 stars instead of two out of respect for the business and what they have & the culture. All Money In. However the fish reminded me of going to a spot back home known for the wings but do t get nothing else lol. It was ok. Basic cornmeal add salt. The sides were flavorless the Mac being the biggest one. Noodles and melted cheese. Similar to KFC. Canned green beans no seasoning but pepper. Red beans same. The étouffée was spicy but tasted like it derived from a roux. The base, once thickened, was that of gravy. The best part we're the fries. Tore them up. It just was not at all what I was expecting. Key word. The owner was there serving it up & was sweet, paying compliments and was welcoming. The price for all that food was $16. Maybe you'll love it. Try them out!

A couple of friends brought us here, and it ended up being the best Cajun/Creole meal I have ever…read morehad. I started with a Cajun Martini made with jalapeño-infused vodka, and it was exactly what I hoped it would be. It did not taste artificially jalapeño-flavored; it had a real kick and just the right amount of heat. We started with the Crawfish Rangoon Dip, and honestly, I could have made a meal out of it. I have had Rangoon dips before, but this one was especially smooth and full of flavor. If I had been at home, I probably would have been tempted to run my finger around the bowl to get every last bit. For my entrée, I had the Shrimp Étouffée. Others at the table ordered the Duck Jambalaya, Shrimp and Grits, and Gumbo Yaya. My dish seemed to get better with every bite. The Creole stew was rich and deeply flavorful without being over the top. I was especially glad our waitress suggested adding a side of garlic bread to mop up the sauce. Even the garlic bread stood out, toasted on the grill with a slightly smoky flavor. It felt like real attention had been paid to every detail. We all tried each other's dishes, and I would happily go back and order any one of them. The banana pudding at the end of the meal was just as good. It had a strong banana flavor and was not overly sweet. Our servers were friendly and attentive, and the meal moved at a relaxed pace. We never felt rushed. My only complaint was the noise level. The restaurant has a tiled ceiling, and it got loud enough that at times, it was difficult to hear people on the other side of the table. Even with that, I would go back to Blue Denim!

The food continues to be wonderful here! This visit I went with the crawfish rangoon dip appetizer…read moreand the shrimp and grits entree. The crawfish rangoon dip was delightfully cheesy with large pieces of crawfish, the chili sauce was sweet and had a tiny bit of heat, and I loved the crisp and light wonton chips. The shrimp and grits were almost as delicious as I remembered from my visit years ago. There is a moderate amount of cajun spices, so if you don't like somewhat spicy food, you may want to ask to see if they can adjust this, but I loved it as is. My husband had the King Catfish plate and really enjoyed it, though we both agreed the Shrimp and Grits was superior. My only complaint with Blue Denim is the noise level. It is a small space with a charming interior, but given its tight quarters, it can get quite loud even if the restaurant is only half full. I'm not sure how they would go about fixing this, but if the weather is nice (as it was in this latest visit) I will opt to eat at one of their outdoor tables.

The Hot Honey Chicken special with pimento cheese was an easy 10/10. The fried green tomatoes were another standout, sliced to the perfect thickness with a great crunch.

Even the Thai Chili BBQ deserves a mention; it's a must-try, just don't let the name fool you because the heat sneaks up on you. Add in the unique artwork and atmosphere, plus the great service, and you've got a restaurant that's worth a detour if you're driving through Durham. I'll definitely be back.

While the food was good, it didn't knock my socks off. And they're definitely more of a creole restaurant than a southern one. There are better cajun/Creole restaurants in the RTP area. I was going to order the creole gumbo, but found out when I came in that it was a seafood gumbo today not their regular one. Oh well. So I ordered jambalaya with a side of red beans and rice. Both were good but a little dry and I've had better nearby. The fresh catch of the Day was Amber Jack, and I love that fish, so maybe I should've ordered that in a Poboy. Might come back to try some of their other offerings.

The food was a huge hit with everyone--full of rich, authentic New Orleans flavor and prepared to perfection. We had a delicious spread that included chicken, yams, collards, rice, along with salad and fresh fruit. Every dish was well-seasoned, fresh, and cooked just right. The chicken was flavorful and tender, the yams were perfectly sweet, and the collards were seasoned beautifully. The rice paired well with everything, and the salad and fruit added a nice, refreshing balance to the meal. Crystal, the owner, was amazing to work with. She was professional, organized, and very attentive throughout the entire process. From planning the menu to execution, she made everything seamless and stress-free. She ensured that all of my guests were well taken care of, and her attention to detail truly stood out. With a large group of around 90 guests, everything ran smoothly, the food was plentiful, and the service was efficient and friendly. I received so many compliments from my guests about how delicious everything was. I highly recommend QuizineOrleans for catering any event, big or small. Crystal and her team delivered an outstanding experience, and I would absolutely use their services again.

Expect to wait 10-15 minutes for each drink, and considerably longer for appetizers or entrees. On top of that, our server forgot a drink or an item on every single visit. That might just be our luck, but it's a hard pattern to ignore. I'm no beignet expert, but Seraphine's are much closer to fried whole wheat bread dusted with powdered sugar than the light, donut-like dessert you'd hope for. Unappetizing, frankly. The beignets at Succotash are *vastly* superior. That said, there are definitely things to like. The ambiance is lovely, and the food -- once it finally arrives -- is genuinely good!

I walked and saw all of the food trucks before ultimately choosing to get food from here. I noticed that their prices were fairly reasonable compared to other food trucks. They were out of the choices that I would typically get such as the wings and jambalaya. I ended up getting the Shrimp Etouffee (Sautéed vegetables cooked into a gravy with Cajun seasoning and Crawfish tail meat served over a bed of white rice) and Cajun boudin balls (Pork marinated in Cajun seasoning and vegetables that is slow-cooked, shredded, mixed with rice, balled up, breaded, and deep fried) with "Who Dat" sauce.I ordered at 8pm and the total was $14.57. I was told it would be ready in 5ish minutes as they were cooking it. I left to order my kid some food at another food truck and came back. It was around 8:10pm and it was ready. The canjun boudin balls were tasty. I wasn't a fan of the "Who dat" sauce. To me, it seemed mustard based and I dislike mustard. My shrimp etouffee came wrapped in a bowl. It was warm in temperature. It was good. The initial appearance threw me off because it looked like soup. However, underneath was nice. Both the canjun boudin balls and the shrimp etouffee had a little heat to them. It wasn't too bad though. I'm don't typically eat spicy foods, so i have a higher sensitivity. I messed up because I forgot to get anything to drink. While I wished my etouffee was a little warmer as the boudin balls were hot/the perfect temperature, it was a good experience overall. The staff was friendly and I enjoyed the food, except the sauce lol.
