Cajun Restaurants near Meraux, LA

“I love Lee’s Shrimp and Grits and my husband loves the Delacroix Seafood Enchiladas. We are the kind of people who love getting our favorites all the time, so there may be plenty of other great dishes. LOL I don’t know !
I gave 4 stars for the atmosphere because when we went, the ladies room toilet is about to fall apart being all loose. Then flushing it causes water to come pouring out from the bottom of the tank towards the seat ! Get a plumber to fix it or to put in a whole new toilet. Seriously. A plumber visit doesn’t cost much at all.“

“Laurent was our server. He was friendly, attentive to the table, and quickly responded to additional requests. Loved the music and atmosphere. We were seated quickly.“

“Best po-boys... We've been eating here for a number of years. Our go-to especially for breakfast po-boys. The best bread ever...made locally in NOLA. Not sure why they didn't have Bloody Mary's this time...they have had in the past....but sandwiches still worth the visit.“

“Great service and delicious food“

“Everything was great ‼️ Service was excellent.“

“Beignets. We tried them all. On our way to the battlefield, we happened to pass Parish Diner and decided to stop. Good thing we did! Easily the best beignets in New Orleans. Unanimous vote!“

“Decided to try this establishment as we have passed it for a while. It may have said it was a Red Bird fried 🐔🍗 chicken but also was a daiquiris shop. Ordered our food, wife got a chicken sandwich 🥪 with fries 🍟 and I got a breast and wing with fries 🍟. After a short time our food was served. Wife got what she ordered and I got a drumstick 🍗 and a back, completely opposite of what I ordered. Upon going back to the register the manager asked what was wrong and I explained what was wrong and said immediately corrected the problem. Kudos to the manager. The young man that took out order was wearing dark sunglasses 😎 while he took out order and afterwards he took them off. Food was hot 🥵 and tasty.“

“Enjoyed their classic New Orleans live stage performance, but they threw raw egg at me, raw egg all over, all over my hands.

Vegetarian options: Gave me a lawnmower to make my own food.

Kid-friendliness: Stage performer ate my son.

Wheelchair accessibility: I was pushed into the canal.“

“Skip the seafood in the French Quarter and head to this spot. This is where the locals come to eat. Large menu, great prices and original Nola food. Delicious!!“

“666th review 🤘😈 this bar is like a home away from home. be cool, enjoy the great food, great drinks poured with love, and an amazing community of locals, writers, painters, clothing makers, musicians, burlesque performers, tour guides, and everything else, goths and punks and witchy folks, sharing some of the most fascinating stories and conversations in town. Come in for amazing movie nights, burlesque shows, writers circles, live music, and trivia nights in the back courtyard aka the Scrapyard. if you ain't gonna be cool, then don't bother coming in, if you're trouble then this ain't the place for you. otherwise what an absolute gem of a bar slash venue“

“if you are in the area stop by and eat its great food and the service is great I recommend this place to eat“

“One of the best poboys I have ever tasted.“

“Great place to meet with friends, have cocktails made by and amazing bartender, and delicious food with a menu to satisfy all! 🍷🥃🍸🍾“

“Classic home cooking in the parish...but this place is hard to beat!! I ordered the Friday special--shrimp pasta with 2 big catfish filets, corn and garlic bread. That meal was fire!!! And plenty enough to share! The wife had a cup of gumbo(it was more like a bowl!) that was FULL of chicken and sausage!! The employees were super friendly and the prices were very fair. Don't sleep on this place.“

“creative and lovely food in an amazing building“

“For gas station food this was some of the best I’ve had. I ordered wings and a friend seafood plate with fried rice. The wings are very similar to KFC hot wings but better. Even their Red Dragon sauce is similar to the KFC candy apple wing sauce from the early 2000s. Will definitely come back for the wings.“

“Stopped in for dinner. The gumbo is amazing! Super quick and friendly service. Nothing shy of amazing!!“

“This restaurant is a must stop EVERY time I’m in town visiting family. My Lawd I always get the shrimp sandwich on bun but I got the hot sausage patties po-boy as well this time. Also grabbed a pound of shrimp and a pound of crawfish. I know I was being big eyed because I was hungry but I didn’t regret it because everything was good, per usual. My mom tasted the crawfish and looovvveeed the favor. I got the regular spice level and she said it was just right, not too spicy. 10 out of 10 definitely recommend.“

“This place always has got food for a low price. And is always packed everyday with loyal customers. Everyone around here enjoys the meals they make. They open at 9:30am-7 but sometimes the owner has to leave early because he sells out to quick“

“Customer service was on point. Servers welcome you like family. The atmosphere was jazzy and a vibe with the N.O. music. The food arrived quickly and was well seasoned. Will definitely be back.“

“Food is really really good. Everything is super clean and the ladies are always smiling and polite. Definitely recommend MeMe’s for lunch. 💯“

“very good food. love the seafood“

“We had a breakfast wrap that was Amaazing............“

“I used Nola Crawfish King for an outdoor party we just held in June. I worked with Sophia in catering, and she could not have been more helpful. She quickly responded to all of my many emails. I wanted a crawfish/shrimp boil, and she helped with deciding what the ratio should be considering it was late in the season for crawfish. The guys who did the boil did a great job, set up all the tables and chairs, and everybody loved the seafood. Don't hesitate to use this company. You won't regret it.“

“Wonderful comfort food. Large portions and variety ❤️“

“I love the graphics on the wall! great customer service!! food is a must eat everyday😋“

“the cakes 🎂 are so good...u have to try them..“

“Fiery Crab's garlic butter sauce should be illegal. It’s THAT good“

It was so overstuffed I couldn’t even think of staring in on the second half, and I eat a lot. $13 gonna get you right! Good food, good people, and good prices. 😎🤙✌️“

“Another night in NOLA which means it’s time to try a new food spot. Earlier today I was over on Canal and passed by Willie’s. The smell itself drew me in and I decided at that moment that I was coming back. LoL!!!! Willie’s sits right on the strip so it’s super easy to find. The front was totally open and there were a few tables outside on the sidewalk. As the strip is super active, sitting outside would be dope if you wanted to people watch. LoL. Walking up to the counter, each register had a cashier so the line was running smoothly. Taking a moment to review the menu, it was as one would anticipate; simple, straightforward, and one dimensional. The highlight of Willie’s definitely appears to be the Daiquiri’ as there are many options. I decided on the 3pc Cajun Tender Combo which comes with Fries and a Honey Biscuit. I also added a side of Red Beans and Rice. I mean, it is NOLA so I had to do it. I placed my order. Received my number. And took a seat to await my order. The restaurant was clean and vibrant. The yellow and red throughout the restaurant really set an upbeat tone that pairs well with the neon lights and vibrant colors of the Daiquiris. Once my order was ready, it was delivered to the table and I was good to go. Let’s talk the Food: Biscuit - Simple. Buttery. Crunchy around the bottom edges. Soft in the middle. Nothing special to note. Reminds me of a biscuit from Church’s. I’ll say 7/10. Tenders - Big. Juicy. Crunchy on the outside. Well seasoned. That’s it. That’s all I got. 😂😂😂😂😂😂. I’ll say 5/10. Fries - Well Seasoned. Crunchy. I’ll say 7/10. Red Beans and Rice - Now hear me out. I love a good RB&R and these were good. There were way more beans than there was rice, which is ideal for this kind of dish. They weren’t too spicy. They were flavored well and the beans were tender. You can definitely tell they were slow simmered. I’ll say 8/10. Now… hear me out! The food wasn’t bad but for $25.00, chileeeeeeeeeeee. No ma’am, No sir. Lemme go to the chicken spot for half the price. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I won’t maybe go again if I want a lil piece of a tender. But at $13 for the Combo and $8 for the RB&R… imma need a coupon or something. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Ok, Ok. In all seriousness, if you’re in the area, go for the experience. *P. S. For my Up North people, Willie’s puts me in the mindset of our “New York Fried Chicken” spots that be on the strip in the hood.“
