I had a great time at Voodoo Bayou for happy hour. The bar area is a nice size with both indoor and outdoor seating, creating a fun and comfortable atmosphere. The drinks were very well made, and I especially enjoyed the Snake Oil Salesman cocktail, it tasted like a delicious spicy margarita. The happy hour food specials were excellent. The baked garlic butter oysters and Rockefeller oysters were both very good and such a great deal. The deviled eggs and Gumbo Ya Ya were also full of flavor and definitely worth trying. Service was prompt, friendly, and attentive, which made the experience even better. Overall, a fantastic happy hour spot with great drinks, tasty food, and a lively vibe. I'll definitely be back! read more

Returned to PB a couple years later and had to eat at Voodoo! The beignets are what makes this place a must try! And the food before dessert is solid. Smoked wings were cooked perfectly!! Hint of Smoke and juicy!!! Deviled eggs w Caviar and Black Truffle are not what they are cracked up to be. Just a basic deviled egg taste. Couldnt taste and truffle or caviar. Good but Not worth the price point. Grilled Cheese Oysters were delicious!!! Came out piping hot and when eaten, the are between raw and cooked. So tender and sweet w a parm cheese crust!!! Definitely would buy again! Gumbo- was waaaaay over peppered. The flavor was good w perfectly cooked shrimp but the black pepper was overwhelming the dish. Past experiences, the Gumbo has been one of the best, but not tonight. Now the main reason to visit Voodoo. The beignets- 5 per serving, comes out piping hot covered in powder sugar!!! So light and puffy and each bite melts in your mouth. If I didnt know, I would think there was some type of creme inside! These are NOT like the donut style most places serve. These are pillows of goodness that melts in your mouth. Tip: You must eat them hot!!! If you want very good Cajun food, try Voodoo Bayou! read more

We met at the bar for happy hour (4-7) before sitting for dinner. They offer both drink and food specials. We had the cup of gumbo which was spicy but well liked by our friends, I had the friend oysters fried perfectly and the pear and pecan salad, which was way too sweet and swimming in dressing...order your dressing on the side! The bartender that cashed us out at the bar was rather rude, as we closed out our tabs before heading to our table for dinner. Our friend wanted to order one more drink while happy hour was still available, but because he was rude she decided not to. Friends had the Gumbo, BBQ Shrimp and Shrimp and Grits which was well liked and arrived hot. My Blackened Shrimp PoBoy was terrible, cold roll and cold shrimp...worst sandwich I've ever had! Hubs had the fried chicken sandwich which was not hot either, something he would not order again. The side of broccoli rabe was cold. Side of Cesar salad had dressing that was way too salty and not palpable. Luckily I asked for the dressing on the side and could control the amount. Later that night my husband realized we were overcharged for our drink. They said they will make an adjustment back to our cc. We will be back but stick with the good dishes and check your bill. read more

This is a neat little restaurant in a strip mall complex in West Palm Beach. There are tons of free parking spaces available in the mall's parking lot. This place is huge, with a large two-level dining area, a small stage, and a bar on the first level and another on the second. They also have televisions to watch. You will also find a decent-sized patio area connected to the bar on the first level. This place is dimly lit. The staff there was very friendly and we were seated right away. The place accepts reservations, but we did not have any. The restaurants serve all of your Creole/Southern favorites. We started with an order of deviled eggs. They were very. My kids got some chicken tenders and mac & cheese, and said they were both delicious. I leaped and got some fried oysters. They were fresh and some of the best oysters that I have ever had. And I lived in New Orleans for about 10 years. Our server was very attentive, friendly, and helpful. He kept our cups full and gave us spot-on recommendations. He was awesome. This is a nice little spot with great service, delicious food, and wonderful atmosphere. My family thoroughly enjoyed our meal here, and I highly recommend this restaurant. I will definitely be back when I make it back to West Palm. read more

Well now! Where do I start. We met some friends for lunch. 6 total. Service was fine, not great not subpar. We were warned that a salad with fried chicken strips would take a bit, but holy smokes we were half way through our lunches before the fried chicken showed up. As for me, I had the shrimp and Grits. Very cheesy and very flavorful. My wife enjoyed her salad. Sorry no pictures of the food. I was hungry. It was a great day but the only table for 6 was in the sun, so we ate inside. It was a darkened type of interior. Lots of dark wood. Just needed some more subtle lighting. Overall, it was fine but nothing to right home about. Now for the part that I didn't like. When paying the bill, the tipping options I believe started at 20%, 22% and 24%. Honestly, as soon as I saw the starting choice of 20%, I was a little miffed. I chose the custom tab and gave my own tip. If someone wasn't paying attention and only chose from the options. Seems a little sketchy. That's my in input. Take it or leave it read more

Three stars is something good and something needs improvement. The chicken wings were good. They did a good job with the way it's cooked. Crispy skin but not drying in the inside. Devil eggs were ok. Buttermilk biscuits- rock hard not flaky at all. Not much taste . Maybe pillsbury might be better The pear salad (lunch portion) - is deceiving . Literally a side dish. I would assume lunch portion is a good lunch portion , nope. I would not order for HH HH was good on drinks and wings. Service wasn't not bad. read more

We had such a great experience at Voodoo Bayou! Riley, our waiter, was amazing, super friendly, gave awesome recommendations, and checked on us often without ever being overbearing. You can tell he genuinely cares about the experience. Another waitress, Kayla, even stopped by to say hello and make sure we were doing well, which made it feel so warm and welcoming, like you're hanging out in someone's living room in the best way. For food, we started with the biscuits, which were SO good, and the wood fired chili butter oysters that Riley recommended. The oysters were honestly one of the most delicious things I've had in a long time. For our mains, I had the jambalaya and my boyfriend got the Cajun carbonara, and both were incredible. Highly recommend if you're looking for great food and even better service! read more

I've been to Voodoo Bayou many times for both dinner and happy hour. For context, I'm from Texas, right next door to Louisiana, so I know a little something about Cajun food. With that said, Voodoo Bayou is... just okay on the food front. Not bad, but not quite hitting the mark if you're judging by Louisiana standards. That said, I actually like the restaurant more than I like the food. The bartenders have always been cool, and I've never had issues with table service--waitstaff are generally helpful and attentive. The setup is nice too: two sides to the bar inside, part of it extending outside, plus outdoor tables, which makes it a good spot to hang out. Food-wise, the happy hour wings are genuinely delicious and probably my favorite thing on the menu. I've also had the oyster po' boy and the jambalaya, and both were just okay if you're used to stronger Cajun flavors. Overall, it's a cool spot for drinks (might need a few to feel something), atmosphere, and happy hour. I wouldn't go in expecting authentic Louisiana-level Cajun food, but it's still a pleasant place to spend time, especially if you're nearby. read more

Was up in palm beach for cruise looked up restaurants and reviews voodoo came up with really nice reviews and so me and my wife got here parking is tough here if coming pay 10 dollars for valet. They are on open table so reserve a table much easier. So place is very decorative with real mood lighting. Bar is very big. I ordered chicken and biscuits and my wife ordered shrimp and grits. Shrimps were good but no spice. Grits were clumpy not creamy. Now my chicken Was crunchy and well seasoned and can with hot honey on side which was really good. People around us liked what they were eating so I would say try the chicken read more

Unique New Orleans style restaurant serving up tasty Cajun cuisine. The food was delicious and the presentation was nice. The decor inside is beautiful. The service was great. We started with some deviled eggs and it looked adorable. The little swirls was topped with some caviar which was a nice touch. Light and fluffy texture. My jumbo crab cake benedict came out quickly but on the way to the table, one poached egg fell off the stack and the server said he needed to bring it back and redo it. I was impressed by the attention to detail and the staff only wanted to serve their dishes at its best. Great training on Vodoo Bayou! Second plate came out beautifully and tasted delightful. It was tangy, a little spicy and full of flavor. Lots of big chunks of crab meat too. The cheddar grits was creamy and rich. Big portion for a side. Wish I lived closer so I could come more often! read more

They say time heals all wounds. Well, this wounded man that looked nothing like New Orleans cooking has found its soul. Every once in a while, I like to visit a place just to see particular in these large places that turn over the kitchen in the front pretty regularly if They're walking the walk. Today I was not disappointed. The gumbo Yaya and the red beans and rice were on point red beans and rice were a little tepid but tasty. My Vieux Carré (Voo Carray- New Orleans Indians do not do French the way the French do)) cocktail was excellent. The bar is very deep in bourbons. Ambience is excellent and service was excellent. Parking is very easy. Definitely now I will be back. read more

Wow--what a huge difference in our experience. I just want to say a massive thank you to Marco, the manager, who was kind enough to reach out and invite me back for a second visit. This was honestly one of the best experiences I've ever had at a restaurant. Riley, our waiter, was incredibly attentive--always making sure our drinks were filled and that everything was just right. Marco was exceptional as well, checking in and making sure the entire experience ran smoothly. The level of service was truly top-notch. The food was phenomenal, the staff were so courteous and kind, and the atmosphere was perfect. I genuinely have nothing but great things to say. Thank you again to Marco and the entire team for such an amazing experience. I'll definitely be back and will be recommending this place to all my friends and family! read more

A lot of people have told me they don't care about guest. I mean that in 2 ways I had a friend harassed at the outside bar and after an employee was notified he shrugged it off even after numerous harassment complaints. My time there was also terrible. I waited 20 minutes for my drink. After asking where it is and being forgotten I got up and left. read more

The ambiance is always amazing and the live music on Mardi Gras night was great. Our server was attentive and made sure he made frequent visits. The highlight was the oysters. I wasn't a huge fan of the Redfish or broccolini, I wish it could've been seasoned a bit more. read more

We have always had really good food here when we visit West Palm Beach! The food is very tasty and perfectly seasoned. The restaurant has a great feel with decorations that perfectly match the voodoo vibe. Service has always been good.

FOOD/DRINK: 5/5 SERVICE: 5/5 EXPERIENCE: 5/5 I will premise this with that this is a place that you go to every once in a while or on vacation, as it is both expensive and rich food. It was pretty on par with DC pricing imho. It feels like you have stepped into a Lousiana themed bar, in the best way possible. Dark lighting and a slightly eerie feeling really adds to it. We have now been to Voodoo Bayou twice and both times were impeccable. The service is attentive, kind, and even help out with suggestions on the menu. I ordered the blackberry lemonade and it originally got confused with the black magic lemonade, which has alcohol in it. Our server was super apologetic and I get it - they are similarly named. I think they should change one of the names. The lemonade was very refreshing and just the right amount of sweetness. Hubby got a guava infused lager, which he really liked. For entrees, I got the fried chicken and biscuit, while hubby got the cajun carbonara. The fried chicken was very crispy and spiced appropriately (read: not spicy), yet very moist! I chose to do all white meat, which an upcharge but very worth it. The biscuit was buttery and luscious. The meal came with hot honey to drizzle over it. Hubby's carbonara was deemed too rich and cheesy so he ate half of my chicken and some of his pasta. Honestly, we could have shared an entree - they were that big!! Now for the REAL reason you come - the beignets!!! The beignets were absolute perfection. Reasonable amount of powdered sugar, pillowy soft, and served warm. Heaven. This is a must order! We will be back but we don't come here every time we come to WPB since we kinda have to be in the mood for it. read more

Not bad but : A. Serve your Gumbo hot. Spice wise was good...temp wise lukewarm at best. A dish like Gumbo needs heat to bring out the flavor. B. Play Cajun music ! Tough to get into a Cajun vibe listening to Wham. C. Draft beer list needs work. Staff was great. Clean place even if it looks like an old church. read more

Very much a New Orleans vibe, food included. Highly recommend the oysters and chicken and waffles! read more

Overall a decent experience out. The food, however, was missing the "heart and soul" associated with New Orleans cuisine. Kinda' institutional on flavors and hidden in overuse of their sauces. Vibe was great and service very efficient and friendly. Food needs to match the upscale pricing (It was a $200 evening for two with only two drinks). If I was in the area, I'd probably give it another shot. read more

Worst customer service, definitely has went downhill since I've last been there. Food is mid too.

I went to Voodoo with a small group. I got to eat or try the Gator bites, garlic shrimp, Shrimp & grits, beignets, ice cream sundae! All the food had a great robust Cajun flavor and everything was cooked excellently! There was smokiness, richness and nothing was overpowering. The old fashioned was smoked at the table and the ice cream sundae was MASSIVE!! I could only eat 1/4 of it. I loved the candied nuts stashed in the center. The single best item was by and far the beignets! They were soft and doughy and sweet and melt in your mouth amazing!!! So good we went back the next day for some beignets to go! The service here was attentive but not overbearing! Also loved the decor! read more

I came across a restaurant that has Louisiana authentic Cajun and creole style infusion flavors . As I approached the restaurant walking up towards the entrance the doors were propped opened I could hear the live band playing music and laughter from customers from inside. I was greeted with a smile and right away seated. My waiter Shane was very polite and helpful, and friendly throughout the meal .First time here ..He explained the menu and got our table appetizers..Gator tail was new to me I have never had the tail , but I did have alligator before.. This was scrumptious and a hint of Cajun seasoning not too spicy and the sauce lemon and chipotle aioli went well with the gator tail. There was nothing left on the plate .. I ordered another appetizer for the table fried green tomatoes with pork bacon jam on top and I loved these the taste was like a blt with no bread .. I also order a bourbon drink and this came with bacon inside. I believe they called it breakfast old fashioned this was definitely my style drink. The waiter came to our table often and to made sure we if needed anything else very attentive.. I ordered a watermelon salad with chicken and the flavors were unbelievable the dressing was a pistachio vinaigrette and very good. We also ordered the seafood jambalaya and it came out in a cute pot with lid and the smell was amazing it was to die for.. I've noticed that when you look at the menu each course has a name opening act to yard and pond ..which goes with their decor and theme for the restaurant. Overall this restaurant was amazing and the food came to our table hot and fresh and the taste was absolutely next level my hats off to the chef and my waiter for making our time here a memorable one .. I highly recommend this restaurant and I will be back to enjoy the different food on the menu .. read more

Loved the ambiance of this place and the server (Joey A) was stellar! We were looking for somewhere to grab some lunch and this place spoke to us. We are huge fans of southern food and barbecue so this hit all the right notes. While I was hoping to try their fried chicken, it was not available on the weekend so I opted for the Chicken Sandwich. We also ordered the Shrimp and Grits, a side of charred okra, a side of smoky collard greens and a couple of iced teas. The food came out quickly. The shrimp and grits were the standout. Those grits were outstanding!! And the greens were just like my mother used to make. The chicken sandwich was quite tasty but the breast meat was quite tough around the thinner edges. I enjoyed the jalapeño cole slaw which added great flavor to the sandwich. The okra was a bit chewy. I suspect it is because the okra wasn't par-cooked so the grilling process didn't fully cook the okra. Plus they were larger pieces which tend to be tougher and stringier. But the best part of all was our server. He was 5-stars all the way! Joey was friendly, efficient, and always kept an eye on our table. Our iced teas were always filled and he checked on us numerous times during our visit. He's a keeper!! read more
