Schmidt's House of Jambalaya

A favorite of ours. We always enjoy the great food, great view and outstanding service.

Cajun in Crescent City wasn't our original plan but it was delicious and hit the spot on a cold, windy day. Food seems to be quality, made from scratch though rather portioned and pricey. Service was excellent.

Food, atmosphere, service..all exceptional. Lacking a 5th star because we both left hungry. Jambalaya for me, wife had a Po boy. Spent $75 and very disappointed in amount of food you get. Nothing included, extras all additional fee. Did not realize that and no big deal but we both anticipated a few fries served with the Po. Owners can knock it out of the park with a wee bit more on the portion size.

Really tiny portions with very high prices. I decided to compare their Jambalaya to mine. I was floored by the very small container that contained a few tablespoons of rice and little more Stew..It was spicy. Just disappointed at the price gouging and portion. 23 dollars for that tiny bowl of subpar food...Gosh it would be nice to find less of this happening in our world. I am local and not sorry that I wont be back...

Good was super fresh, jambalaya was 10/10. The shrimp in it was great - really tender but not fishy at all. Boudin balls were perfectly cooked and was accompanied by a great sauce. It was destroyed before photos lol. Cool view of the beach while you dine.

Seriously, $22 for a small bowl of really mediocre jambalaya? With like two shrimp in it. Quite flavorless for a jambalaya. Any accompanying cornbread was really ridiculous It was like some artificial cornbread. You guys really need to up your game. I'm sorry I'm usually not this rude for a review but that was quite underwhelming if not ridiculous, considering I paid $34 for really mediocre small bowl of jambalaya, artificial looking cornbread and a really small nearly undressed side salad.. No idea how you have a over four plus rating. If the namesake food item on your menu is mediocre why would I try anything else?
