Cajun Restaurants near Crestwood, IL

“Today was my first time there. The food is delicious my kids love it but I don’t feel I had the great service. First, we didn’t get the napkins and utensils on time but way after the food got there. A drink spilled on me (our fault) which made me realized there was no napkins provided, by the time we found the lady for napkins I was soaking wet. Then we were about to start eating and my children needed a fork, well no fork was provided. We ordered 3 seafood boils, no utensils for that were provided neither. My husband ordered an extra drink, never was it brought to us. I’m happy my kids enjoyed it, but we were not that pleased as we saw others being treated differently. Not sure if we will be returning.“

“Was recommended this restaurant from a friend. The maple tree and did not disappoint. Made a reservation online easy. Their menu is awesome, simple and delicious. Crab cake was perfect! Our dinner was fantastic. We had trout and shrimp. They have the best banana pudding over crème brûlée. The coffee for an end cap was out of this world good!“

“Great food and fun!“

“My overall experience was fantastic. The music was great, the appetizers were appetizing, and the food was delicious, with generous portion sizes for the price. I will definitely be back.“

“It's in the hood but that just means it's worth the drive. We lived in Chicago for a few years and my MIL was the one who introduced us to this place. Stopped in after my son's dr appointment before heading back home an hour away. It was so worth it. The flavor and the amount alone is worth it. Spicy rice with the blackened chicken is my favvvv.“

“115 Bourbon Street is such a fun spot! The place is huge with plenty of space for live music, dancing, and hanging out with friends. The atmosphere is always lively, the drinks are strong, and the food hits the spot—especially the Cajun and Creole options. Staff is friendly and quick even when it’s packed. Whether it’s a concert, fundraiser, or just a night out, this place never disappoints. Definitely one of the best venues on the south side!“

“Picked up a catering order yesterday that was phenomenal.“

“Best food and very clean! I highly recommend 👍👍👍“

“Acclaimed renowned chef Fabio Viviani best known for his Italian and now California wineries (Fabio Viviani Wineries) and his 2008 appearance on the reality television competition series Top Chef where he was voted the "fan favorite" has lent his name and vision to a few new restaurants in the Southlands at the newly opened Wind Creek Chicago Southland Casino on 173rd & Halsted. \n\n“Shuck It” Oyster Bar is a reasonably priced Louisiana Cajun Style restaurant that offers “a curated selection of freshly shucked oysters served with flair, pan roast, live-action kettles, and classic gumbo, accompanied by libations.”\n\nFor starters I suggest a classic Caesar Salad —\nromaine hearts, anchovy, sourdough croutons, horseradish, and a delicious Caesar dressing. The Clam Chowder, New England or Manhattan though my preference is for, and this review is of, the classic New England chowder, was rich, with FRESH oysters clearly made from scratch in-house. The Gulf Oysters on the ½ Shell were similarly FRESH and delicious. Finally the “Prince Edward’s Mussels” are served in a variety of unique styles but again I prefer classic style dishes so I enjoyed the steamed in white wine, garlic and herbs.\n\nThe Gumbo is simply remarkable! Creole stew cooked with andouille sausage and okra. Served with steamed rice is common to the five styles: 1) Poarch Style - Shrimp, crab, lobster; 2) Shrimp; 3) Crab; 4) Lobster; and 5) Chicken varying in price from $30-$20. My version was clearly made to order—classic NOLA style gumbo with lobster as an add in—shrimp, crab, lobster, chicken and andouille sausage. \n\nFinally, you must “experience” the Seafood Étouffée -Cajun stew, shrimp, crab, and lobster served over soft moist white rice.“

“The food is just so good“

“Great customer service. Excellent food, always delicious 😋. I highly recommend Jumbo Crab 🦀 on Lagrange for anyone in the area...“

“The food is ALWAYS top tier here. Crab legs be big not scrawny like at them seafood boil places. Right now im trying to have them relinquish me from their shackles because from the crab legs to the craw fish they got me stuck. Food is fresh and sauces are A1. Plus they aren’t too expensive either definitely reasonably priced.“

“Great food, not so great service.“

“The award winning food and drinks are delicious!“

“Delicious“

“The bartender Bryan (handsome bald white man) was amazing ❤️ I had a great early dinner the music was good and the honey hot wings and buffalo chicken rolls were fresh and flavorful. Strawberry marg was so good I finished before the food came.“

“Food was Excellent and definitely worth the price, however 15% gratuity no matter the party size is unheard of. Wife n I wanted to sit and have some drinks after our meal but we refused because of thr automatic gratuity. Will definitely eat from their again, we will just get ours to go!“

“Food is good. Clean environment 💕“
