A Prattville Gem!…read more I've lived in Prattville for a while, and Uncle Mick's Cajun Cafe is one of those local spots that I'm always happy to recommend. Located right in downtown Prattville, it's a true gem. The portions are generous. I found that an entrée with two sides was more than enough for a satisfying meal. The staff was friendly and patient while I made my way down the line trying to decide what to get. That kind of service makes a difference, especially when there are so many good choices staring back at you. I also really like the atmosphere. The dining area has some cool decor and plenty of character, and there's patio seating along with a rear dining area if you want a different setting. Friday nights are my favorite time to go because that's when they serve the catfish. It's become my go-to night for a meal there, and definitely something I'd recommend trying if you haven't already. Overall, Uncle Mick's is exactly what I look for in a local restaurant: good portions, friendly people, a relaxed atmosphere, and food that keeps you coming back. If you live in Prattville or happen to be passing through downtown, Uncle Mick's is worth stopping by.

It's no frills just good eating. The included menu say they are open Tuesday thru Saturday. This could change. I would call them if you're planning on visiting on Sunday or Monday. They have a daily choice of meats and sides (which includes your drink) along with menu items. You walk up to the serving line to choose your meat and two or to place your order. They have fountain drinks along with sweet and unsweet tea. Due to the size of the building, there are limited seating with a few tables outside. The ribs had what tasted like cajun seasoning dry rub on them which was very good if you like dry rub. The red beans and rice was AWESOME and perfectly seasoned. The mac & cheese was oven baked and perfectly cooked. I will be back to try the other items.

My husband and I finally got a chance to try this place out and have a much needed lunch date…read more It was Friday afternoon, so it was understandably busy. We sat outside and enjoyed eyeing all the eclectic decor. We waited a while before we got our drinks, but that margarita was worth the wait. One of the best I've ever had! I loved that it had a nice bit of spice. Our food was absolutely delicious We shared sandwiches and an order of fries and before we were done we already made plans to be back soon. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. Our favorite was definitely the Viet Cajun.

This is the Forest Park location, which looks like a run down, weathered house in a very New Orleans charming way. Service is good. Fast-casual, you order at the counter.

There was a significant fly problem. The bayou classic had potential, but the rice was hard and underdone and also cold. I replaced the bayou classic with salmon pasta. They also were out of almost everything I wanted to try ... oysters, collard greens soup, and banana pudding. I really wish I had more positive to say, but that is my honest opinion. The tea is really good and they did remove the price of the Bayou Classic, but overall I'm disappointed in my experience.

I decided to try something new and ordered the Wicked Chicken based on her suggestion. It was delicious, full of flavor, and the portion was huge. I also had the bacon-wrapped sausage, which is always one of my favorites and never disappoints. The combination of great service, generous portions, and consistently good food is why I keep coming back. If you're looking for flavorful Cajun cuisine, Cajun Roux is definitely worth a visit.

Overall, it was an okay experience. The restaurant itself was nice with a good atmosphere, but the…read morefood and service were just so-so. Our fried seafood was fried way too hard, which was probably the biggest disappointment with the meal. There weren't any drink specials, and our server didn't seem to know what a Jack and Coke was. She also seemed pretty distracted by another table that appeared to be friends or people she knew, and several of our requests were forgotten. The restaurant was mostly empty, so I was also a little confused about why we were seated right next to the bathroom when there were plenty of other tables available. Nothing about the experience was terrible, and the place itself is nice, but between the overcooked food and inattentive service, there's definitely room for improvement. Three stars feels fair.

The full size is huge, fresh lettuce, tomatoes, all the Cobb add ons with delicious grilled shrimp. As I was enjoying my mid day feast, I reached for the straw in my ample sized iced tea and proceeded to tip the glass into my waiting lap. The entire staff jumped to my aid, moving me immediately to a different table and insisting on cleaning up the entire mess. They couldn't have been nicer or kinder about the entire event. Cudos to you for excellent service in the face of difficulties. I can assure you this was no small dribble, it was the entire 16 oz glass. I enjoyed my meal and I'll be back, but next time, I promise not to spill.

That way you can continue to be versatile in your food and now, different locations. I went to CC today to get their fried green tomatoes, but unfortunately they didn't have any left.
