I am from south Louisiana and just had amazing food here. Fried oysters, fried shrimp and crawfish bread were delicious. Highly recommended

Woke up this morning missing home. I am not fro New Orleans but this kind of food reminds me of my upbringing in the south. And the food took me back. The location I questioned but once inside different story. Warm and welcoming, staffe was amazing hats of to Gabe . Jessie is there cooking with passion came out and spoke with me and loves what he does and the food indicates that. New favorite spot!!!! Nothing wrong with location I am just not big on strip mall settings.

We finally got to try this place. It was SO GOOD! And it was nice to see an owner come out and chat with and sit with customers while they dined! My family is from Louisiana, so this was a much needed reminder of granny's cooking! We will back many times again! Thanks, Jessie, everything was AMAZING!

We have enjoyed many delicious dishes here, but yesterday we tried something different. My wife tried the magnolia catfish and I tried the Wednesday Special Cajun Fried Chicken. We both loved our dishes and as I said to Jessie, the fried chicken was absolutely amazing and the best fried chicken I've ever had. There was another customer who said the same thing right after me. There was another guest sitting by us and he called the chicken the real deal saying he lived in Lousiana and having chicken there said Jessie's reminded him of home. Follow Jessie's on Facebook so you see his posts and when if other than Wednesday they offer the chicken!! FYI, sorry no picks of our dinner we were really hungry and didn't thing about that.

To this place for lunch. The staff was friendly enough, however one plate of Jambalaya and shrimp and some garlic bread cost me nearly $30. It’s nice to have a change of peace, but even for Cajun food, it was average at best

The service was OK. They were quick with the food and To rotate the table. Great for a one time experience, but not a repeat.

The kitchen manager was very nice though. Don’t think this place is gonna make it.

I’m from Alabama and I was happy to see a New Orleans restaurant in the Parker area. Me and my wife went to Order. She got the fried chicken on Wednesday and jambalaya rib beans and rice. I got the catfish when I tell you that my catfish looked amazing. It was fried to perfection and when I bit into it, I was so disappointed the fish had not been cleaned. Trust me. I know what a clean fish taste like and I know what a fish taste like I’ve caught catfish i’ve cleaned them for many many years and I know what an unclean fish taste like that fish taste like it came straight out the pond and they battered it in fried it. I was so disappointed my wife taste a piece of it and she has not wanted to eat fish since last Wednesday is messed up her taste buds completely. I got so many people telling me that I should come to this restaurant and truth be told I came once before and got the fried chicken on Wednesday and it was good. The jambalaya is OK. The red beans and rice is mid at best the shrimp Poboy it hits but the catfish taste like gym twat

First of all, Adriana started to take care of me and gave the scoop as soon as I walked in the door. Kaley ( hope I spelled it right) took my order, but there was a glitch, she fixed it, and I ended up with something better than I had originally, plus I got a chance to chat with her.

Jessie's has a high-energy, fun vibe with excellent service from everyone. It seems everyone was happy to be working there.

I got 1/2 po' boy special with catfish and it cane with cajun fries and another side. I got a cup of red beans and rice. At first bite the catfish tasted a little salty and the sandwich was a little dry, but that was easily fixed with a little hot sauce. I liked the red beans and rice, but if you don't like a spicy kick you might not like them. They had a nice peppery taste.

Come check it out, it has the feel of a neighborhood restaurant.

My first time going was not a good experience. I placed the order online @ 12 noon to be picked up at 6:15 pm spent $74. And when I went to pick it up, no one greeted me I had to let someone know I was there to pick up my order. After that three people as me about my order. One guy didn't really even care he came and said it would be a 30 min wait. No one apologized for the wait being that I had placed the order so early in the day. No one offered anything while I waited, and when I did finally receive my order 32 mins from my pickup time. They gave it to me in the dine in boats rather than to go boxes (UGH). My pie was in the bag sideways, so just an overall poor service experience.

Food was good. Had the jambalaya. Although i don't like how the front of house operates especially with the tip pool. I noticed the servers work hard between making alcoholic beverages, taking orders, serving food and bussing tables. It just doesn't seem fair for their hard work on top of a good attitude. You can make your food as good as you want but the front of house is what makes your sales. Was also in the other night and heard the owner in the kitchen yelling at other employees over a customer who had a food allergy and saying he didn't want to serve them, that seemed a little aggressive to me. If a customer has a food allergy and you cannot accommodate to that that is fine, but to yell at your staff from the back to where people can hear it is outrageous. Where has professionalism gone in the restaurant industry? These employees deserve better. The young lady working had also taken a large order before me and was working very hard to accommodate everyone in the restaurant and the tips are still pooled?? That's crazy.

Dietary restrictions: The owner does not care if someone is allergic to an ingredient on a meal and will not accommodate for that customer
