    Absolutely amazing meal at Toups Kajun Kitchen! The crawfish étouffée was packed with flavor, and the fried fish was cooked to perfection. That hot sauce brought everything together! The service was just as impressive--everyone was welcoming from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. Spacious booth, great atmosphere, and an all-around great time. Definitely worth a visit!

    Definitely a good place if you like that home cooking flavor. Nice exterior and interior and friendly service. They have a good menu selection and I really need to try the breakfast also. Sort of reminds me of Piccadilly food or maybe Cracker Barrel and honestly this city needed it. Portion size is standard and I think I'll try more items see if they can be as good as the locals say they are. I'll definitely be back.

    Pirogue Platter

    This was a cute cozy place for some southern food and it definitely hit the spot! I got the Pirogue Platter and fried pickles and they had so much flavor! The waitresses were very friendly :)

    Delicious!!! Very friendly staff, good service, and delicious food. They're always open and serving up good dishes. Definitely gotta check them out when you're around the Leesville area. My girls and I loved it.

    The Boudin Egg rolls were really good and fried to perfection- just like the menu says. It was service with a smile, plenty of sweet tea and doors on the ceiling with a fantastic gear chandler.

    Shrimp & Grits

    Stopped by for a quick breakfast with my partner and we were amazed by the speed of service. There were ample tables available, either chairs or booth, with patrons allowed to seat themselves. We were in and out in under thirty minutes on a weekend, and the food was absolutely phenomenal. We both DEVOURED our dishes. The étouffée definitely elevated the dish beyond your typical shrimp & grits.

    I've visited here a few times whether to grab brunch w/ friends for a birthday party or js to eat breakfast. I'm new to Louisiana so I love how it introduces me to food here. Food is very delicious. The waitress are very kind and attentive. And the vibes are amazing inside and outside

    My son brought us here for brunch saying it was one of their favorite places to go. For a late weekday morning, they were still pretty crowded but we waited less than 10 minutes to be seated. There was a steady flow of customers the whole time we were there. It's modern rustic inside and out, and the ladies who work here are very sweet and helpful. My husband and I took a long time to decide what we wanted because so many things sounded good and our waitress was very understanding. We started off with an appetizer, Boudin Balls. For those who do not know, imagine a dirty rice fritter ball. Served hot, with ranch dressing on the side, they were savory, spicy and oh so good. Definitely recommend. My husband had the Red Beans & Rice. Topped with a savory sausage link and accompanied by cornbread, the whole dish was what you'd expect and want from a Cajun place. He ate every bite. My son had the Eye Popper; biscuit & white gravy, scrambled eggs, and an order of cheese grits on the side. It's one of his favorite things to order there. I had the Shrimp Étoufée with a pistolette (fried bread roll). The shrimp were large and cooked just right, tender and not chewy. The sauce and rice were creamy with warm spices, just right. The pistolette was perfect to help soak up the delicious sauce. At the end, we were very full so did not try any dessert. Our loss. This is a lovely, casual place that has delicious Cajun cuisine and I highly recommend you trying it out.

    Was in Leesville for a family event and I stumbled upon this new restaurant. To my surprise this place was good and it's one of two restaurants that I've been to in the area that actually feels like a real restaurant. Interior of the place is cute, the seating options for the elderly though is not thought out. Hard wood benches in the booths that are a little difficult for some folks to get in and out of and the metal chairs at the tables are just not comfortable ones. Staff is super friendly, our waitress Kristen was so sweet. The menu itself offers a lot. Word of mouth, I was told the breakfast was better than lunch/dinner. So of course I came for breakfast. My daughter loved the kids menu and got a kick out of the names. She liked her food which was a pancake and bacon. I ordered the shrimp and grits, with a side biscuit and gravy. I actually really liked my meal, it was very filling and full of flavor. The biscuit and gravy though, I loved the gravy. Presentation was nice, portion size to cost was a tad off in my opinion, but I was okay spending the money because this is one of the better restaurant options in the area. Definitely will be back next time I'm in town.

    Very unique take Cajun food north of I-10. Extremely fast service, and a nice cozy environment.

    Family brunch!

    Food is ok - typically cannot get fried eggs exact. The chicken fried steak is ok if you don't feel like cooking.

On our last visit, everything was pretty salty. I ordered the prime rib melt, but was very disappointed. Even the gator bites didn't taste like how I remembered them. The boudin balls were the saving grace. They were large (in comparison to the other boudin balls I've previously had) and very tasty. The sweet potato waffle fries weren't bad either.

After walking past the kitchen and seeing a bucket of food that appeared to be etouffe sitting on the floor with no lid on it, a cardboard box of baked potatoes next to it, and see the waitresses spend more time circling up to gossip than actually paying attention to their tables..... I will never waste my money in this establishment again. Go try Big Thickett BBQ or another local spot in town. Watching the unsanitary practices by a waitress named Kaitlyn, who seemed to be in charge, and the laziness of majority of the group gave me enough reason to never waste my time having a meal here again.

While trying to blend in and watch some good ol' Fox News to complement my new location, I stumbled across this joint. Like any ambitious visitor, I had made it my goal to hunt down some alligator to mark my virgin experience into the south. When I first came in here, they said they had run out of much of their stock but were due a new shipment soon. The owner and staff were so so nice and their sincerity really stuck in my head. Came back a couple days later and as promised, it was time to nom on the alligator! My boyfriend and I had the alligator sausage po-boy, shrimp and fries, hush puppies, the grilled asparagus, and what I remember to be something like alligator tender strips. I gotta say the strips and the hush puppies were the best. The strips came w a sauce that worked well w the meat, and the hush puppies were so soft. The fried shrimp was on the salty side and the grilled asparagus were somewhat limp, lacking that crunch. But overall, the food was pretty good. It was definitely satisfying as a snack and quick meal. And the verdict on the first time gator? The texture of the tender strips were softer, and it was harder to tell it was gator. But the gator sausage for sure tasted more unique. Definitely a little more chewy, and glad to have finally tried it! But I guess ultimately I'm a beef or chicken girl haha The bar is pretty spacious, and even better - across from inside it is also another bar that serves a HUGE variety of slushee cocktail drinks. Like, their selection is intensely impressive, and you can sample to your hearts content. The prices on these drinks are super affordable, and I got too excited to get turnt and ordered a cup size way too large for myself to even finish. I played my flavors safe and ordered a strawberry daiquiri w a vodka base (can't go wrong w SD!) and it was so good. If you like your drinks light or easy w a meal, don't order the second shot. If you like your drink w more kick, definitely get that second shot add on. I'm so glad I stopped by this joint. It's a great place to kick back, and get a snack, and beyond that, the service and staff are just so friendly and phenomenal. Coco and Daisy especially made huge efforts to provide recommendation and accommodation. When this city girl needs a break away from the city, I just might show up at this place again.
