Cajun Restaurants near Merrionette Park, IL

“YES! ADD TO ROTATION.

Absolutely awesome place. Service was greatest I’ve had in probably years (Shawn? Sean?). The GM came and talked to me - really great guy. This monstrosity of a venue is a very tight run ship. Every area of this place was clean and everybody was wonderful. That explains why there were so many people in the middle of the week.

I would challenge anybody who came here and didn’t have a wonderful time to talk to Management. This place is so on point. I’m pretty sure that if you don’t like it, it’s not the place, it’s you.“

“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!“

“We loved our food, my son got the honey sliders and mom got the Louisiana bugger and I got the black bugger. The fries were plenty, my daughter loved my bugger and we had to come back. Mom got the rice and beans, son got the half chicken and I went for the catfish...then ofcourse my daughter ordered the black bugger. We'll definitely be back when in town again, the ratio for the rice and beans was little though. We got some fries to go. Overall, we loved the food!“

“Great food and fun!“

“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.“

“Had my Daughter's Wedding Shower there, everything was fantastic from the food, the staff and Richard our server was "the best". The room was perfect and cozy and out of the way. Highly recommend for a party or just stop into eat!“

“That food was excellent I will be going back“

“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.“

“Had the pleasure of trying out TDS at the Kane County Fair before the rodeo, OH MY LORD was it amazing! New Orleans is my favorite city and has many of my favorite foods and man did these guys did not disappoint! If you are considering them for any catering or event do not hesitate to book them. They were really friendly and you can tell that they love what they do. I cannot say enough good things about them, KEEP IT UP GUYS!“

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

“Tasty food, good service, reasonable prices 😊“

“Gumbo, Mac & cheese, Catfish was super good. Never been to a restaurant that addressed rules before entering 🫪 & we from Philly. Nonetheless food was good, service (short staffed) but server was thoughtful & pleasant which made up for the abrupt entrance.“

“The food is delicious!!! Has the shrimp gumbo and would go back everyday for it if I could. The service has been amazing and is the real star of the restaurant. Kelsie has been our server both times and is the reason why we came back a 2nd time.“

“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.“

“The award winning food and drinks are delicious!“

“Great food, not so great service.“

“Delicious“

“Just had my first time here yesterday and my first seafood boil. This place is a hidden gem! I have never had seafood so delicious! The place was clean, the staff was friendly and the waitress was knowledgeable. Food came out fast and was fresh. I throughly enjoyed my experience. They can fit a lot of people but it wasn't many folks there for a Friday evening. Hope this place sticks around for awhile and more folks hear about how good they are.“

“Food is good. Clean environment 💕“
