Rachael's Cafe is a highly recommended restaurant known for its delicious seafood. The seafood platter, grilled shrimp, and shrimp and okra gumbo are particularly praised. The crab au gratin and coconut sweet potatoes are also popular choices. The staff is friendly, and the cafe has a family-owned, welcoming atmosphere. It offers a cozy and comfortable setting, with good service that is friendly and fast, even when busy. The restaurant is known for its authentic Cajun cuisine and presentation, making it an excellent place for both dining in and taking out. Customers enjoy the home-cooked meals, including "Fit" meals like sweet potatoes and grilled chicken, which are described as very good. The cafe also offers frozen take-home options such as gumbo and crab cakes, which stay fresh for hours in the car. Although seating and parking are a bit tight, the overall experience is worth it. The restaurant is praised for its clean environment, good prices, and the ability to pay instantly with a card at the table. With a small, quaint atmosphere and friendly staff, Rachael's Cafe remains a favorite for comfort food at a good price point.
