    Shrimp Yaka Mein

    4.5 (can't leave half stars on Yelp)! We've been to the new location twice since it opened. First time, the wings were good and fries were rather greasy. Second time, wings were great, fries still just fries, fried shrimp and crab claws were awesome and shrimp yaka mein really hit the spot. Flavorful and plentiful!! We will be back. I hope they change their fry type, maybe a crinkle fry will be less greasy. Glad to have a go-to spot close to home.

    I arrived like an hour early prior to opening I set in my car other ppl pulling up like 15 minutes…read morebefore opening and got out if their cars 2 ppl standing outside so I get out to stand also but low and behold I was served 1st and for that I will forever be a customer! I ordered 200 wings and let's just say one of those pans didn't make it to the event with a 100 because I ate like 10 pieces iykyk Golden wings has that effect on ppl. Inside is clean they really can't control the cleanness of the shared parking lot the menus are clear and to the point . You can catch them open every day except Taco Tuesday which makes sense because they specialize in delicious crispy chicken.

    Meh, it's just okay. Nothing to write home about. Classic wingettes and drumettes fried in…read moreprobably unhealthy oils. I have to admit, I really didn't feel like cooking so the mister and I stopped by for a tray and rice. I ate here once when I moved here over 13 years ago and haven't been back since this recent visit. I even cut back on Chubbies and Popeyes and fry my own chicken at home. They are very popular with the majority of customers being of my persuasion, go figure. We are slowly killing ourselves eating this stuff all of the time but it was a long arduous day and cooking was the last thing I wanted to do. So, there's some flavor in the food but I won't spend $40 on a tray of wings again. Plus, we're trying to be more conscientious about what we consume these days, so there's that.

    Just, YES. We are vegetarian and the options here are SO…read moreGOOD! We ended our walking, self-directed tour of the Garden District at this restaurant and were thrilled. 1. We were desperate to cool off. Their AC was so cool and necessary during the heat wave that we had just spent a couple hours walking through. 2. This place served best rum punch I've ever had. Oh my goodness. Turning down a second one was hard!! 3. I've never had a server who appeared as invested in our order as our guy. I developed an old lady crush on this sweet man! We told him that we are both vegetarians and one is a post bariatric surgery puzzle. He was so sweet and supportive that I would return here weekly if we were local! He made sure we had what we needed. 4. We ordered the roti, two tacos (Rasta & cauliflower) with coconut rice and plantain as the sides. The tacos were both so extra, so yummy, the roti was tasty- but the sweetness on top confused me- we loved the plantain but not the rice. We'd be back in a heartbeat. I want to try every vegetarian option here!

    Food was good but please take Trinidad out of the "Trinidad street roti". There is nothing Trinidad…read moreabout it. Not a good mix with tamarind, bell peppers, cauliflower and so called roti. Beef patties were kinda weird as they tasted like they had curry or something, not too bad. This is coming from an actual Trini.

    If you haven't been to bayou hot wings yet, drop what you're doing & go eat some fire wings man…read more This place never disappoints, and with such a large menu there's something for everyone. Personal favorites are Bayou Sweet Heat & Lemon Pepper bone-in wings, with fried pickles, onion rings, and potato salad as awesome sides. What're you waiting for??

    Long time bookmark! Adam Carola or some dude like that came here one time I think…read more I was super stressed and didn't want to interact with any humans so I got these wings to go and headed back to the hotel. I had seen some news about them at some point, I love chicken wings, and it looked good. It's take out only. Not much to see besides the menu and the pictures of Adam and some other dudes. You can see the kitchen, little shotgun style place. I asked some questions about the sauce heat levels and ordered what he equated to medium regular buffalo I think. The names are strange to me. Just say Buffalo!!! Ugh. The wings were flavored very well, I liked the sauce a lot. The fries had a nice seasoning on them as well. The packaging absolutely ruined the food. It was all soaked when I opened it. That really sucked. It was about a 15 minute ride. They packed it in a wax lined, fully sealed box, similar to an Asian food box. It simply steamed the food while I drove. Bad move guys. I could not even eat the fries, they were just mush. Wings had a slight crispness in some spots after I left them open for 20 mins or so to dehydrate. As I said, the sauce was great so I did eat the wings. The wings are probably really good I bet if they were not ruined by the packing. 3 stars for the flavor. '26 - 96
