Cajun Bistro 7

Bad owner, Food and drinks consumed caused a feeling of nausea.

Food: 1

Today around 11:45 AM, I purchased a shaking beef dish for my girlfriend. I have been a regular customer at this restaurant for nearly 3 years, which makes today’s experience even more disappointing.

Shortly after finishing the meal, my girlfriend started feeling severe nausea and a strong headache. This is a very serious issue, especially when it directly affects someone’s health. We have eaten here many times before without problems, so this incident made me deeply concerned about the food quality and food safety.

When my girlfriend started feeling unwell, I immediately called the restaurant. The staff member who answered the phone was polite and friendly and listened to my feedback. However, when that staff member relayed the issue to the kitchen staff, their reaction was extremely unprofessional and disappointing. From what I could hear, they seemed to think I was trying to cause trouble and even suggested that I should bring the dish back to the restaurant so they could “question” it. This made me feel that they did not believe me at all, as if I was only calling to ask for a refund. This kind of response is unacceptable, especially when a customer is reporting a potential health issue.

The staff member also told me that they would report the issue to the owner and that the owner would call me back, but I never received any follow-up call. This shows a complete lack of responsibility and care for customers.

I am extremely disappointed by how this situation was handled. Not only was there a serious food safety concern, but the way the staff responded made the experience even worse. Because of this, I will never return to this restaurant again.

If my girlfriend experiences any further health problems, I will have no choice but to report this incident to the food safety and health department for further investigation.

When my daughter came back to visit from NY, she happened to crave for Cajun seafood, we went to Cajun Crack'n in Milpitas and this time my son recommended this restaurant that he likes after eating here with friends before.
This one is in the VN shopping center, very crowded shopping center so it's very hard to find a parking spots even there are many.
So, the restaurant is small, and the servers don't know how to be pleasant or attentive, if you need something you have to ask only when they want to see you even the aprons. I didn't have good feelings with this restaurant. The restaurant is typical VN family restaurants, just simple tables and chairs, not very airy.
Like every cajun seafood restaurant, they have some combo for people to choose. One thing that disappointed my daughter was NO snow crab legs, only King Crab for $80/lb. I didn't care fore the seafood that much, there's no catfish fried for me so I ordered something to eat, beef cubes sauteed with linguine which so soggy and soft. I cook linguine better than this.
There's not much on the menu for seafood that I really like. My daughter sadly ordered the combo $70 which didn't have much in it. If it's up to me I just get up and leave, go some places that have what you want but since my son recommended this so we stayed.
We ordered some fried calamari and fries for appetizers, they're ok, nothing special, I could still taste the calamari seafood odor.
The main course came, the sauce didn't look very good, but my wife and daughter said it was ok, not bad. My son seemed to enjoy it more.
Anyhow, we decided that this restaurant is just for my son and his friends not for us.
Never been in a restaurant and feeling so unhappy and unexcited like this one.

We waited over an hour and a half for our food. During that time, we saw several people who arrived after us being served and receiving their meals, while we continued to wait. When we asked about our order, we were told it was “next,” yet more people kept getting served before us.

This was extremely frustrating, especially since we’ve been loyal customers even though the service has never been the best. Eventually, we got up and told our server we wanted to cancel our order. What made it worse was that they didn’t even apologize or acknowledge the poor service.

Best seafood boil in the bay

Took around 40 mins after sitting down to order and get any food.

Ordered the garlic parmesan noodles, mussels, king crab, shrimp, and Cajun fries. The garlic noodles were good and the Cajun fries were nice and spiced but only seasoned at the top. The mussels were in the original sauce in medium heat but, the sauce just tastes like butter and minced garlic. Mussels were decent but a little fishy tasting. The shrimp is head on— and there’s no option for without. We got the spicy original and they were definitely a little overcooked, because the shell is very hard to remove from the meat and they’re not cut clean at the top to remove the shrimp poop. If you’re looking for real spicy, the closest thing is the Cajun fries. The crab tasted pretty old and spoiled. There’s a bitter aftertaste in old crab and when the shell is bendy and flexible, it’s not the greatest sign. They don’t have anything to offer to crack the crab open, so it was tough to finish. The price for everything is decent except the crab. It’s market price and was around
$90 for a pound of crab and it wasn’t even fresh. Comes with basically a stick of melted butter, sugar, and onions.

Made me miss east coast Mr and Mrs Crab seasoning.
