The Mac Daddy
Jonathan R.

This was my second time going to Mojeaux's. The first time I went I had the shrimp poboy. It was really good. This time I was interested in one of the smoked menu items. After studying the menu for a minute I decided to go with the The Mac Daddy. It's a smoked turkey leg cover with mac and cheese, green onions, bacon bits and bbq sauce. As usual, this was takeout order. The meal came in an aluminum container. This meant the meal was just as hot as it was when I left the restaurant. When I opened the container the turkey leg covered with max and cheese looked like a piece of art. I could tell I was not going to finish this in one sitting. The turkey was huge. The food was amazing. The smoked flavor ran through the meat. The meat was so tender it practically was falling off the bone. The mac and cheese was was excellent as well. It tasted like it was homemade, made especially for a cookout or family reunion. The green onion added a real nice touch of distinct flavor. I give Mojeaux's 5 stars. This is a unique restaurant with fresh ideas. I would recommend you try them.

Turkey Leg with collards and cornbread topping - Banging!
Tara K.

Location, Service, Food, Ambience... All highly rated from me. This is a black-owned gem of restaurant right here! First, the unique menu is the primary and most important reason to visit and get your eat on. We loved the turkey leg plate options; don't let the price fool you, You are getting bang for your buck, I promise! And I can't let this review end without highlighting that d*** good bread pudding... best I have ever had! And check this part out... they had ran out of green tomatoes to make the Fried Green Tomato appetizer, and I so wanted to try them...at first I was like well another reason to get back over here soon! But then, the very polite and friendly server we had told us that they had sent someone to get more green tomatoes, so we could order FGT after all! Not many restaurants will go out of their way like that! Let me tell you, them FGT was hot, fresh and banging... so worth the wait! Also, we didn't finish our turkey leg plates because they substantial, but I ate on mine for the next three days following! They give you an aluminum pan as a to-go box so you can reheat in the oven! I live about 2 hours from this restaurant, but I will be making an effort to get back to Mobile and bring others to this amazing spot! Keep it up! Keep it Open! I love supporting "us"!

Peach cobbler
Joyce J.

Unique menu - smoked turkey leg? Yes please! Tried the Louisiana Monday leg, which had a unique and tasty red beans and rice with thin cut conecuh sausage. Delicious! Others tried the lamb burger and crab cake sandwich. Wish they would let you choose the side, but it comes with fries only. They were good but some people don't care for fries and the sides were the same price (a little pricey at $6 each). A lot to choose from. Prices were a bit steep; more dinner prices and no lunch menu(at least on Saturday). Portions were reasonable/not too large but for the price we expected to have enough for leftovers. Atmosphere was cozy, but service was a bit thin. Perhaps someone called out as the waiter was the only one on the floor and he did his best with the tables. It just took a while for the food and dessert. Dessert - was worth the wait and would get 6 out of 5 stars. Fantastic bread pudding. The sauce was to die for. The peach cobbler was good as well. Want to try the beignets next time but don't know that I can skip ordering the bread pudding! There were some tables outside of the weather is nice. Food was closer to 5 star but service time and prices make it a strong 4 for us.

Mojeaux's Mardi Gras
Sumone N.

I could go on and on about how good the food was. How exceptionally good the service was. Oh and did I say, how good the food was. We got there right at opening time. So the employees and food was very fresh. If you have a healthy appetite and don't mind spending a little extra, every bite is worth it. Definitely hate they are closed on Sundays, cause we had planned on stopping back by in our way out of town. Certainly putting this spot on our stop in list. Til next time...

Chef Chris Gumbo YaYa

I travel through Louisiana Alabama and Mississippi for work and I gotta say this is the best gumbo I've ever had. Very rich and great portions. The service was great. And all in all It was a great stop and I'm glad I went here.

ExcellentService, menu has many items eye catching, cost is perfect for the size meal you receive. Definitely a keep and will return again. Unsure if there is another Cajun restaurant in mobile this good.

The Trio
Sherron G.

If you want to get full, this is a place to try. The food has a great taste and you get plenty. Friendly and helpful service and we liked the TVs on the wall. A little more upgrades and it would be an excellent place to hang out.

Fried ribs
LisaMarie S.

This is what $16.00 worth of fried ribs look like from this place. Mind you, this is the second time this has happened. The first time I ordered "pick up", in the car on the way home I realized they were bad so I called and brought it to their attention. They apologized. Months have passed and decided to give them another try..... not sure how someone can pick these up and actually decide to plate them and think it's ok. Not only do they look unappetizing but they were also hard as rocks. A complete waste of $16.00. I'll never choose to spend my money at this establishment again.

Shrimp and grits
Amanda M.

Outstanding! Wait staff (Clinton) was funny, made yummy recommendations. The food was out of this world! The location doesn't look great from the outside, but go anyway! Literally everything we ate was authentic and delicious!

Lena G.

Absolutely AMAZING! You must try this spot out if you're in the area. We were able to split the "Mac Daddy" turkey leg. Service was great & so was the ambiance. They played jazz music.. it was quite enjoyable.

Stuffed turkey leg with dirty rice covered in an etouffee sauce
Terrance G.

Had the pleasure of eating here on my last day in mobile and let me tell you it didn't disappoint. The young man serving us who I thought was cocky about the turkey legs being filling didn't lie!!! It was very delicious. Will definitely be back on my next visit in mobile

I was working from home so I went there on my lunch break. When I walked inside I saw a few patrons sitting at tables. There was a a buffet style counter set up with the work staff behind it. Each of them greeted me as I walked toward the counter. I was asked what I wanted and I said thought instantly about the fried chicken I saw. I ordered that and the meal comes with three sides and cornbread as well. I chose mac and cheese, black eyed peas, and mash potatoes and gravy. The server rung me up and I took my plate to go. I can't remember the first thing I tasted when I got home. I believe it was the mac and cheese. It doesn't really matter. The sides were really good. Mac and cheese is usually my favorite side but I thoroughly enjoyed the black eyed peas. Don't get me wrong the mac and cheese was excellent but the peas were superb. The mash potatoes were creamy and the gravy was savory. The cornbread was the type that had the pieces of corn in it. I liked it. Now the main course was of course the chicken. It really looked and tasted like authentic homemade fried chicken. I loved the seasoning on the chicken. It was some of the best chicken I've had in a while. I definitely want to come back.

Because this spot is not pretending to be anything. This is full-on, unapologetic dive. And I mean that in the best possible way. You walk in and it's like the '70s, '80s, and a little bit of someone's '90s basement bar all got together and said, "Let's not change a thing." Old banquet-style tables, a bar top that feels like it's hosted a thousand stories, and walls that have clearly seen some things. I loved it immediately. Now let's talk food. The folks next to me were deep into the chicken and dumplings and talking about it like it was a life event. You know that kind of table chatter where you start reconsidering your order mid-bite? Yeah, that. I went shrimp po' boy... and no regrets. Shrimp fried just right. Crispy, flavorful, doing exactly what it's supposed to do. Solid sandwich. The fries... eh, they showed up a little tired. Not terrible, just kind of there. A little cold, a little soggy, like they'd already had a long day. But here's the twist. You don't come to Judy's for perfection. You come for personality. For the feeling that you just discovered a place that doesn't care about trends, doesn't need a remodel, and definitely isn't chasing Instagram. It just is what it is... and somehow that works. Fold this into your expectations. If you need polished, keep driving. If you want real, pull up a chair. It's fun. It's different. It's got character for days. Four stars. And honestly, half the star is just for staying exactly the same all these years.

Unfortunately they just opened in…read morewest mobile and I would like to give them the benefit of the doubt but just want others to know my thoughts. Today I ordered fried pork chop, candied yams, loaded potato salad, collard greens, banana pudding, and blackberry cobbler (was told it was blueberry)! The pork chop tasted ok, cold but ok. The candied yams were out of the can with a bitter sweetness of honey or syrup, I truly could not identify. They were too bitter to enjoy. The greens were tough and seasoned with some type of hot sauce that took away from the natural taste of homecooked greens. The loaded potato salad, well....just stay away. Cobbler was just down right disgusting as in not even edible. The banana pudding was pudding out of the can with black bananas and soggy nilla wafers. This was my first order and will be my last one. However, if their cafe lasts for any length of time and I see plenty of patrons, I may be willing to try again but that will be no time soon. I like to support local business but I want what I pay for to be palatable.

By the time we arrived, a bit after 6:30 pm, the chicken and dumplings were sold out. We ordered chicken fried chicken (which came with 2 sides) and a fried shrimp salad, (a dinner-sized) green salad topped with lightly fried shrimp and lots of croutons. While it took a bit of time before the food arrived, portions were quite generous, and the food was tasty. My husband said the potato salad and slaw were both on the sweet side, but he enjoyed them and the fried chicken. Service was very friendly. Payment is at the front counter, and there's a small surcharge for anything other than cash. After seeing reviews of this restaurant on Yelp and elsewhere, I thought it might be a good choice for us. I'm glad we went.

The chicken was fabulous the sides were as expected, only set back is the mac and cheese is not as good as the rest, but everyone needs an Achilles heal, and perfection would just spoil me. Luck was on my side as Chris was our server again, that guy is tops. We had no complaints at all, did over hear a conversation at the next table where he had to substitute pot roast for an entree that was sold out (after checking with the customer for the sub) and he took that off the bill. Customer requested he not because he was so helpful, but he made another excuse and did it anyway. That my friends is why I tip him so well, (he got more on this 43 buck meal than the gal on my 175 tab last night, and she didn't get shorted) he is a super star and makes the visit better just by being himself. I hope his folks know how he is outside of home and are proud. Somebody raised him well. Bottom line, if you are looking for great home style cooking and no dish washing, this little gem is the spot. We used to get take out but with the service we receive why bother washing plates. Highly recommend. As you can see my newly added picture has a bite out of my chicken, I couldn't wait.
