Best Cajun Restaurants in Mesquite

We had a lovely experience for Valentine's Day with a prix fixe menu. The bartender was exquisite as our martini was perfectly prepared; the lobster bisque delicious, and the Princess cake a perfect end to a wonderful meal. Diego was a terrific server. Well done!

Amazing Food & Incredible Experience! From start to finish, this restaurant delivered an unforgettable dining experience. We kicked things off with the deviled eggs and gumbo, and as a self-proclaimed gumbo connoisseur, I can confidently say this was one of the best I’ve had in a long time—rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. For the main course, we went with a family staple: fried chicken. It was everything you want in fried chicken—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. The collard greens were packed with flavor, and the shrimp fried rice was a delicious surprise, full of bold and savory notes. To top it all off, my cousin and I enjoyed a few of their specialty cocktails, the Purple Rain was absolutely fantastic. Meeting the chef was a highlight; she was incredibly kind and accommodating, which made the experience even more special. Although I don’t live in Dallas, I’m already looking forward to coming back. If you’re a local or just visiting, this place is a must-try!

We had an incredible experience! It was our first time dining at Nuri. Our server, Ed, greeted us and explained the menu thoroughly. Offered us a variety of drinks and cocktails as well. He gave us great suggestions that we ended up choosing. The drinks came out quickly, the food came shortly there after and was just as amazing as he said it would be. The hospitality Antonio showed us was above and beyond. He greeted us, along with our server, at our table as soon as we sat down. We had great conversations regarding the restaurant, the food and cocktails with Antonio throughout the night whenever he would swing by to check on us. When we were ready to leave, both Antonio and Ed came to say goodbye. We had one last round of conversation and jokes before we went on our way. I couldn’t be happier with Antonio and Ed, we had a such a great time. They definitely turned our regular date night into a whole experience. We can’t wait to come back again!
