“ Tried dozen times before (couple of years and vacations) but the place was always reserved for private party. But it was worth the wait and I could taste the perfect cajun and New Orleans spices! Everything was delicious. I have only one demand: you guys could provide photos in the menu. Its really difficult to choose blindly. So I will provide some here :) ”
“ Great vegan dishes! I had the Jambalaya...it was so good!!! My husband had the cauliflower Po'boy! Highly recommend! ”
“ Shout out to Tim for the amazing service and friendly vibe. He made us feel welcomed. We came for drinks, but the piano music got everyone excited! We will return! ”
“ We've been coming to Orlando for years and never thought to try this place. So glad we finally did. The atmosphere was great and the service was top notch. We started with the biscuits and gravy appetizer and it was delicious. We did think it was a bit too small though. For the mains we had the jambalaya and the Cajun Mac N cheese with penne. The pasta was really good and a good size. After a few bites I asked for parmesan cheese to add to it and to me made it even better. The chicken pieces were good but could have used a bit more seasoning. The jambalaya was excellent. Good size and really nice flavours. Could have been spicier though. They have a stage for live music and they had a gentleman playing on the patio. He was truly good and even took song requests. Overall a great dinner and will be back to try other dishes! ”
“ The music and food fill the soul. We loved the warm and fun atmosphere, but we also loved the experience of eating Caju food. The service was also excellent...don't expect a luxurious atmosphere, but do expect delicious food and good music. ”
“ The Hurricane was delicious! Didn't get the chance to taste the food. The piano players were awesome and did a great job taking requests. Loved the vibe here. ”
“ My family has been coming here for years, even though i live out of state now it's a must when I visit home. The food is so good and the drinks are the best!! Service is so nice and quick, and they were so nice about making sure the jambalaya didn't have shrimp for my allergy. And of course, the duelling pianos are so fun and enjoyable to watch and request songs!! Can't say enough good things about this place, and I can't wait to go back next time I'm in florida! ”
“ Outstanding Experience! Everything was perfect — the food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. We felt truly taken care of from start to finish. Highly recommended! ”
