I used Yelp to select this restaurant for lunch. I came in an 4 employees were sitting around in…read moretheir phones. I was told to seat myself. After a few minutes one came over asking if I wanted the buffet which looked good but I wasn't that hungry. I ordered a Po Boy off the menu. It took a really long time. All the while watching the waitress try and get something off her shoe. Once the cook said my food ready, she was still messing with her shoe. Someone else brought my food. Once I started to eat it, it was slathered in mayo and there were very few shrimp on it. The few that were supplied were tasty.The fries were cold. I ate about half my meal and left all the fries. No one ever checked on me or asked if I wanted a refill in my drink. This place has potential if the employees cared. I won't be returning when in the area. Maybe it was just a bad day but that was my experience. I dislike giving bad reviews but I was nauseous the rest of the day from all the mayo

I ordered a Fried Shrimp Po Boy with fries, my wife ordered the Catfish Platter with fried okra and crinkle cut fries. Our server was very pleasant, and attentive, but not bugging us. She was patient with us since it was our first visit. Our food was cooked to order and the plates looked very delicious and filling. I was surprised to see a bowl of gravy coming to the table. I dipped a few fries in the gravy and was blown away by the unexpected flavor. We declined desserts, but their sweet offerings of Fried Apple and Peach Pies, milkshakes, and hand dipped ice cream was tough to pass up. We're coming back for the Chargrilled Burgers. A BIGGG PLUS, When We Arrived At Our Car, Our Server Ran Out As If Something Was Wrong. She handed us our santizizer that we left on the table. I can't tell you how many bottles we've left and no one returned them to us. Impressive, Most Impressive!!!

FOOD: There was very little selection to choose from. Based on our experience, we could tell the…read morefood didn't seem very fresh and may have been sitting out all day. We both felt really heavy afterward, and my mom even felt sick after eating there. It was just basic diner food and a bit overpriced for something you can get almost anywhere else. However, the cake that comes with the cornbread was my favorite part. SERVICE: The service was fine. It had more of a cafeteria-style vibe, so there isn't much to say about it. AMBIANCE: The inside felt very run down. The bar wasn't even finished and didn't look like it was ever used. Overall, it had a very hole-in-the-wall feel.

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.
