The crab claws were the star... flavorful, and seasoned just right with that classic Cajun kick. Paired it with a drink and it made for a super laid-back, satisfying brunch vibe. Ate on the patio bc if it's a pretty day, why not? Service was quick and friendly, which I appreciated since I was just popping in. Overall, a great go-to if you want something casual but still packed with flavor. I'll definitely be back when I'm craving seafood without the full sit-down commitment.

This gem of a restaurant is in the Patron Creek shopping center. The inside was very lively, and it seemed smaller than when we came last. We had a party of 6 people and were seated quickly. The server was super nice and shared his recommendations with us when we asked. My husband (the birthday boy) ordered the Voodoo Chicken, and I ordered the Redfish Rockefeller. Our friends ordered gumbo, shrimp and grits, pasta alfreadeaux, and I don't remember what the other person ordered. Everyone was very happy with their orders. My redfish was super flavorful and I cleaned my plate. You know when the conversation gets quiet, the food must be delicious! My husband wanted the Crème Brûlée cheesecake to go and he said it was tasty. The only issue we had was the length of time it took for our extra order to get processed. After a while, we learned the frying oil was being changed and it would take a while to heat back up. We thought that someone should have told us something earlier. But it all worked out. We definitely will be back!

I don't understand why tips are expected at a tiny ass food stand we already paid for our food which was over $30, tips are for restaurants to tip the waiters and waitresses because they need the tips but this food stand is not a restaurant and all the food is already laid out, btw charging money without consent is illegal and it's disgraceful against the people who actually need tips.

We frequently visit this location and the ambience is always 10 out of 10. The staff is well versus with the climate of the customers. They often check to make sure you have everything you need, plus a little bit more. The smiles and the vibrant welcome in this restaurant is superb. To describe the food is beyond comprehension in words, I believe after trying the catfish plate the crispiness of the outside golden shell, the melting texture and the moisture of the inside of every catfish is superb with every bite and is a 10 out of 10. My goal is to try the whole menu! 10 out of 10

Service wasn't the most attentive this time, but it was a busy Saturday night, so it was understandable. We started with a shared salad with house lemon vinaigrette and ranch AMAZING. For entrées, we had the Cajun Surf & Turf and the Seafood Platter, both well-seasoned and delicious, plus a bowl of gumbo (not pictured). We spent about $126 without cocktails, but it was worth it for the ambiance and quality of food.

Finally brought out the correct side after meal was finished and we refused it. The only thing they did right was take that off the check. Sign at the from says 'if you can't tip 20% then Cajun Roux isn't for you.' Well, if you can't provide even a basic level of service then you absolutely do not get a 20% tip. 0/10 would not recommend and will not be back.

The fire was going, which I found interesting considering it was a warm day. Im assuming for ambiance. Our waitress was ok, soft spoken and not the most outgoing.

Tried the dirty martini, but tasted more like an extra dirty... Not my fav but still good. Our group ordered several apps to go with the drinks. Everything was amazing. I always find the food good, but the waiters/waitresses not totally with it. The runners have more personality.

Gone in about 2.5 seconds--don't even remember sharing them But BABYYYY...the chicken & sausage gumbo?? That was the star of the show. I almost ordered another bowl just to "make sure" it was that good (it was). And listen...that Louisiana platter with shrimp and fish?? Absolutely disrespectful how good it was. Crispy, flavorful, and had me sitting there like "yeah... I'm coming back real soon." On top of all that, the customer service was top tier. Friendly, quick, and made the whole experience even better. 10/10 -- no notes. I will 100% be back...probably thinking about that gumbo the whole drive there
