“ 3 rd day in a row! There food I can’t not get enough of!!! The seafood platter is huge! I could not eat it all and I’m a big guy. blacked bayou Étouffée, the shrimp is to die for!!! Recommend this place to everyone! Louie has great customer services! The owner truly cares about his reputation!! ”
“ Delicious! But even better than the food was the company. Everyone was very kind and made you feel at home! Thank you so much! We picked up some food for the long trip home and we are so glad we picked there to stop. We'll be back! -Trailer friendly, by the way. Lots of parking! ”
“ Fantastic food, large portions and friendly service. My girlfriend and I ordered a special of blackened fish with corn and yams, as well as a stuffed shrimp with coleslaw. Both meals came with garlic bread as well, one Texas toast style one on white bread. The best part was definitely the stuffed shrimp. Very mildly spicy shrimp and crab meat wrapped in a hearty cornbread batter. The brown gravy on the rice was also fantastic, but genuinely there wasn't a single part of the meal I didn't love. 37 for the 2 meals isn't the cheapest thing, but very, very worth it. And the portions make it more like 4 meals. ”
“ Delicious Catfish, Red Beans, and Peach Cobbler! Great friendly service! I asked for extra ketchup and actually got extra ketchup... ”
“ Holy Cannoli!!! This place blew our socks off! We just wanted a solid meal after a long work day, and Mr Smith and the crew in there gave us the full experience! He is a wonderful man, and he definitely put the cherry on top. I got the black bayou plate and ooooh boy!! I set a bite to the side so it would be the final flavor in my mouth after finishing everything else off! ”
“ Friday lunch break, rice gravy salad n lemon pepper wings. This was sooo good, leftovers taken home. ”
“ Having grown up in the south this is exactly what reminds me of my grandmas home cooking. The restaurant looks like a hole in the wall joint leaving the airport. I saw it and had to try. I was not disappointed at all! The food is excellent! Everything tastes like it was made to order. I didn’t ask but I’m pretty sure it was. This is legit home cooking southern food. The staff was super friendly and the price was more than reasonable. Highly recommend if in the area. ”
“ I am from the DFW my first experience at this restaurant was superb. I ordered a whole catfish and french fries and it was delicious fried the way I like it. In the near future when I am back in town, I will definitely revisit. Thank you for the great hospitality and delicious food. ”
