Nice little gem! gumbo, crab cake, and jalapeño hush puppies were delicious…and price is reasonable…sitting options were inside with AC or cute backyard patio with picnic tables…plenty of parking area…definitely if you are passing through this is a must stop…

Grill salad was absoutely delicious. The staff is amazing and the owner Buck Fontenot is the sweetest lady I have ever meet.

I drove 30 minutes to try this place, and honestly, it wasn’t worth the trip. The food came out quickly, but the service was terrible. Our waitress dropped off our food and didn’t come back to check on us at all. We had to go up to the counter to ask for a refill because no one bothered to offer. I felt completely ignored. The food might’ve been decent, but the poor service definitely overshadowed it. After driving all that way, I won’t be returning.

You can't beat the Gumbo or the price. Friendly staff and an authentic Cajun atmosphere. It's great!

My husband and I started stopping here in the summer. We pass through this little town twice a month. We absolutely fell in love with the food and the people the first few times we ate here. Unfortunately the past couple of monthly trips weren’t as good. Last week we decided the give it a try after a not so good experience the month before. The food was absolutely disgusting. The shrimp my husband ordered were poorly battered and stuck together and his potato salad was like a mustard soup. My fish was so salty and my fries were so overcooked that there wasn’t even potato left inside the skin. The service was decent but we felt as though we weren’t as welcome as we were during our first few trips last summer. I don’t know what has happened in this place but I sure miss being able to stop for my taste of home.

Jameson was the best server we ever had! However, the steak tasted weird, almost like lighter fluid. When we told the waiter, he said the manager “offered to cook it longer”. We literally paid for steak that wasn’t fit to eat and now have to go elsewhere to feed our son something else to eat. Also hearing the manager yelling at the kitchen staff is very unprofessional. This was our first and last time to eat there! This was at the Monroe location, not the Columbia location.
