    Crab cakes
    JuleeD

    Awful. We were at Coushatta meeting some friends, and Mike was hungry. We thought about the steak house, but didn't want to take that much time. The problem began at the entrance. The hostess was very nice, but there was a gaggle of employees standing at the entrance to the restaurant. They were standing there complaining about something. Five or six of them between the hostess stand and the dining room, blocking access. After the nice hostess asked them to move so she could seat us, they dispersed. Our waitress was pleasant. I wasn't all that hungry, so I ordered a glass of wine and asked for a recommendation for a smaller meal. She didn't really have a suggestion, although in hindsight she probably should have suggested we try another restaurant. I asked about the crab cakes, and she said they were "very good". If you're still reading this, you probably have already guessed that she was very wrong. Mike ordered a Club sandwich with fries. Our food arrived. The crab cakes looked overly cooked, and although Mike's sandwich looked okay, the fries were cold. Just as Mike told me about the fries and I tried one, there was a very large man wearing a suit, exiting the kitchen. He looked managerial. I asked if he could get us some hot fries. and he pointed to our waitress. He said he would tell her, and he did. A few minutes later, there were hot fries delivered. I tried a bite of my one of crab cakes. It was horrible. Mostly filler. They also had a strange grease taste, like they were pan-fried in old (or bad) oil. I had to say a little prayer for the poor crabs that gave their lives for this nastiness. The remoulade was tasty, thankfully. It helped me finish off almost 1/2 of one crab cake. Mike's sandwich was good, and once the fries were corrected he enjoyed the food. In college I waited tables. Whenever I went to a table and there was someone there who had eaten one quarter of their food, I would ask if everything was okay, just to make sure the food was alright--and replace it if it wasn't. Our waitress never even acknowledged that I barely ate anything, nor did she circle back and ask if everything was okay. I could have said something to her, I suppose. In hindsight, I should have. Coushatta restaurant management, if you are reading this, here's some unsolicited advice: 1. If you can't at least try to put a decent crab cake on the menu in a Louisiana restaurant, take them off the menu. 2. Teach your servers to take care of your guests. 3. The proper response from a manager when asked anything by a customer is "Of course, right away. I apologize for the problem." Not "Oh, that's your server over there, I'll tell her." 4. Don't let your employees stand around in a group, chatting. It looks bad. I'm sure there is a private area in the back they can use. Do better.

    I ordered a hamburger Steak Topped with brown gravy, caramelized onions, mushrooms, served with mashed potatoes & broccoli. It was so delicious. I also ordered a cup of chicken and sausage gumbo. It was perfect. My friend ordered Crawfish Etouffée Traditional crawfish etouffée served with garlic bread & white rice. She also ordered the seafood gumbo. She enjoyed her meal as well. I definitely will stop by here again. The service was good our server was very kind. The ambiance was very relaxing

    Menu for April 2025 since the other pictures are old and these are new food is decent

    Chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and broccoli.

    Wife loved the chicken fried steak. The had to be given the recipe for a "Cosmo" but once she had it the Cosmo was excellent.

    Outlaw BBQ Burger, with house made BBQ sauce. Crispy onions and smoked Gouda cheese. Sweet Potato fries! Must get...

    Great place to have a decently priced meal, while you're gaming. The Staff is friendly and welcoming, the food is fresh even close to midnight.

    Boudin balls. Yummy!

    We go to Coushatta every year around this time and Terrace Cafe is where we always eat. The dinner is always wonderful. The breakfast is hit or miss. This most recent visit was a little disappointing because the breakfast was a bit too greasy. The pancakes were raw and the biscuits were dry. But, overall they have really good food.

    Crawfish Etoufee- yummy
    Nicole M.

    Honestly I was not impressed. I've been here a few times before to have breakfast and it wasn't great but I was starving and so excited to have Cajun considering I was in Louisiana, it was far from good. Rice was cold and hard as a rock. The etouffee was so fishy and all the wrong flavors. I don't recommend this dish. My tea was empty and never once did our server check on us or ask if we needed drink refills. The restaurant wasn't busy ( 5 tables maybe - at least 5 servers ) so I would think service would be up to par. Over all needs improvement in all areas. Until then I won't eat there again.

She was lovely and answered every question with the patience of an angel. I landed on the Caesar salad (a true masterpiece) and the grilled shrimp. It was the perfect combination. Finally I ended with crème brûlée. And to my surprise, a dinner plate came out with a lovely light layer and perfection in every bite. I was told they make it that size for sharing. I know it could be pricey but I would say treat yourself to Big Sky. It's worth it.

The restaurant was decorated as you would expect a good Cajun restaurant to be decorated in. Service was nice and friendly and you order at the register and they bring your food to you. Service was great even after we got our food. A server asked us if we needed refills and if we wanted them in to-go cups, which scored bonus points with me! Here's what I had on this lunch visit: The crawfish pistollette (8/10) which was a small appetizer that was bread with some crawfish etouffee on top. Bread was nicely cooked and the etouffee on top was delicious. Solid starter! The Cajun Cooking Sampler (9/10) - this was a sampler with 3 amazing dishes. I got the shrimp and crab gumbo, which is classic Louisiana gumbo and it was outstanding! The sampler also had a bowl of crawfish etouffee which was good but felt it needed a bit more etoufee to mix with the rice. Lastly, the special of the day was fish courtbouillon which was a fish in tomato based sauce over rice. I really enjoyed this as the fish has a great texture and there was a lot of flavor in the sauce. Overall, solid lunch meal in the $ to $$ range depending on what you order. Recommend you trying it for a great Cajun experience!

From the direction we drove in from it looks like a tiny parking lot with 10 spaces. Someone was pulling out so we got front row parking. There is a MASSIVE parking lot adjacent to the restaurant. Saturday Night 6:07- party of 2. The order and seating process is unusual. Place your order at the counter and they tell you which area to sit in. We were eating at 6:17. That's unreal. Alligator bites ($13) Shrimp tacos ($10) and Shrimp w/ crab gumbo. ($10) 2x miller lite ($7) dinner for 2- $45 Everything was absolutely amazing. I've read reviews where the people complained that the food was bland. And other people complained that the foods were too salty. I have zero complaints. We were completely satisfied. Thanks to Apple Maps and Yelp for helping us make this decision. We were only in for a wedding and wanted a unique experience that was local- not a chain.
