About Boutte's Bayou Restaurant

Boutte's Bayou Restaurant is not your typical perfect Cajun spot, situated in Bayou country in lower Jefferson parish. The restaurant, housed in a converted Coast Guard barge, offers a small yet warm dining space with a comforting atmosphere. Chef Brett serves up succulent fried shrimp and perfect Cajun jambalaya, along with unique and delicious egg rolls. The food is fresh and well-seasoned, with options like the Po-boy sandwich filled with lots of shrimp and the surf and turf combo plate. Despite some menu limitations due to hurricane damage, the 45-minute drive from New Orleans is well worth it. Guests may even have the chance to meet the owner, Captain Nick, who shares insights and stories about the area's struggles since Hurricane Ida. Don't miss the opportunity to chat with the locals for a truly authentic experience.
