Entrance view from our table
Crystal H.

The food was tasty especially the wings. We were offered free samples of their special sweet tea and it was delicious- definitely ordered that. The menu also contained lots of options that sounded directly. The service was lovely too. Greeted warmly and seated quickly. Food came out fast and hot except for the fries which were delicious and worth the wait. It did get busier as we were eating, and she continued to maintain a very pleasant attitude as she greeted people who did have to wait for seating. We also got a to go order of the jerk wings and a slice of Keylime pie. I would highly recommend this place. Their ambience is cozy and the decor is quite eclectic. Not sure what theme they're going for. Was recommended by a friend and glad I tried it!

The Bayou Classic Pasta Dinner
Taylor D.

Me and my friend decided to stop in here for lunch. The restaurant was very nice it wasn't busy so we were able to choose our table. The food was amazing and perfectly seasoned. The tea was very good as well. I will definitely be coming back here to eat again.

Dozier's Kabobs and Cajun Rice
Jonathon B.

This may be the best kept secret in Montgomery. Cajun flavors and such great food! Chicken kabobs were tender and rice was cooked perfect. Went back the next day for the shrimp pasta dinner. Huge portions and great taste!

Pasta Bowl with Shrimp and andouille.
Cindy H.

We ordered Bayou Classic & Pasta Bowl with Shrimp and Andouille. Both of the dishes were okay, but would have been better had they been served hot instead of just warm. Service was good. We went in a Monday. It's a very casual place with relaxed vibe. I probably wouldn't go back because it was overall disappointing.

Mushroom Appetizer!
Carmen B.

We pulled into Wishbone just as it opened for lunch on a Tuesday for a bite to eat before continuing our self-guided, four-day Civil Rights Tour. We were delighted! The food is classic New Orleans with some culinary surprises - all at one-fourth the cost of a fine NOLA restaurant. Order anything with mushrooms! What a lovely sauce on the stuffed mushroom appetizer, and the mushrooms in the Louis Armstrong had the taste and texture of tender, juicy steak. The fabulous work going on in the kitchen extends to the clean and bright dining room where the kind and attentive staff is focused making you comfortable. The day was hot, and as we walked in we were offered iced tea immediately. Cold drinks were at our table almost before we sat down. My husband had his usual unsweet freshly brewed tea but I indulged in the sweet house tea - oh, wow! The house tea is fruity and perfectly balanced. Not too sweet and not too fruity. So thirst-quenching! Then, we were brought a small complimentary soup to whet our appetite. So nice! The moment we tasted the soup - a basic, house-made vegetable soup - we knew we were in for a fabulous meal - the broth was deep and rich and the vegetables were not overcooked. For lunch, my husband (who is Cajun) and I ordered the Louis Armstrong and The Bayou Classic. They were both excellent, but distinctly different. It would be difficult to pick a favorite.

Bayou Classic the number 1 seller
Matt M.

Another good Montgomery spot. Parking in a private lot, good service but oh my gosh they have amazing iced tea. I mean, seriously their I ed tea should be listed as a class III substance, it is that addicting. We had a big lunch that day do my son and I did not sample much. But here is what we had. Yea - sorry, I repeat it is amazing Veggies - this is a side dish, but it was heavenly. Bayou Classic - the shrimp were fabulous but the crab was just not my thing. A good dish, that really can be great (and maybe it is on other nights). The Thursday night we went the bar and patio were off the chain. In fact, I don't you will find a better party on a Thursday.

I'm so very torn in my review. The atmosphere was great. And the food was freaking AMAZING!!! But they were very understaffed. And that impacted service and the timeliness of our orders coming out. I dined with a party of 18, and we made the reservation one week in advance, so the staff knew to expect us. Unfortunately, there was also a birthday party at the same time. And it appeared as though there was one server for the birthday party, one server for our party of 18, and potentially one cook. So everything was slow. But again, the food was worth the wait. We definitely shared food and EVERYTHING was great! Things slowed down once we received our food, and we were able to compliment the cook. She definitely deserved the praise!

Chicken Quesadillas
Chanelle S.

The service was incredible. The waitress was so pleasant and persistent in which it was such a pleasant visit. The food was delicious that I ordered delivery the next day . They have a sweet tea with pineapple juice which was so tasty. The ambiance was nice and I will be returning soon.

Broccoli
Marcus P.

The service was ok being that they only had one server for the whole entire restaurant! It took about 20 minutes to get our drink order and then another 10 to get our drinks. Then another 40 to get our food ! I had the stuffed chicken breast w/ grilled shrimp and garlic pressman broccoli. THE ENTIRE PLATE WAS COLD ! When I advices the server he stated "let me go reheat it" 3 minutes later it was back in front of me microwaved. the broccoli was burned and the shrimp had gotten tough... highly disappointed.... but the tea was good. And the collard green soup is AMAZING (when it's not sold out)

Stuffed Chicken

The food was wonderful!! Each plate was neatly arranged & appetizing. The food was mouth-watering delicious. Nothing was needed to season the food. The server was courteous and top of everything. Our seats were nicely placed with ease for all those who attended my mother's birthday party. My mother raved on and on about the ambiance & food. Thank you to Wishbone Cafe staff, cooks, & servers for making celebrating my mother's 69th birthday an awesome experience & memory.

Chicken Salad

Great fries, better than McDonald's. Well seasoned. Crispy to perfection. Simple but robust flavor.

Flat Fanta but pretty centerpiece

See all

Food is really good whenever you can get them to answer the phone for a takeout order. The atmosphere is a nice vibe as well.

Tasty and original but understaffed in the kitchen. Bayou Classic lived up to the hype.
