About this restaurant

  • Great for brunch
  • Child-friendly
  • Good for groups
The truth is, you don't become a Louisiana favorite just by putting the word "authentic" on your sign. When you've served Cajun meals as long as we have, you learn the difference between real food and a bland imitation, and our guests know it too. Grilled, fried or on ice-there's time cooked into every dish and time spent on every home cooked recipe, so that every aroma, every bite, every sip and every gathering is memorable. We've spent more than 80 years creating a recipe for something much greater than a place for a lunch break or night out. It's a place to share (or keep the whole plate to yourself), a place where you always have a seat ready at the table and a place where you're always part of the family.

    We had a reservation for 830. We did not get seated until 845. Our server was in training she left mid shift when I was saying she was gonna leave. It took another 45 minutes for us to get our food so we didn’t get our food until 10 PM with a reservation at 8:30 and the restaurant was not that Pak Food was OK it was lukewarm. We just was so ready to go.
