Friendly warm and the food was hot, fresh, and delicious. The prices were great as well. Our waitress was awesome and deserves a bonus. She answered our questions, made great suggestions, and made us feel at home. It is definitely a place we will visit again!Parking: We parked across the streetKid-friendliness: Kids were having a great time on the Karaoke machine!

Love this casual warm inviting spot in downtown Monroe. Took my sister for her birthday after the Black History Parade. The rave reviews I'd heard were well deserved. I got Fried Catfish with Crawfish Ettouffee. My sister had Fried Dhrimp & Fried Oysters. My niece had chargrilled Oysters on the shell. Everything was delicious. Our server was great. Their outdoor dining patio is beautiful.

Fontenot's came to us via local recommendation as "the real deal!" AND IT WAS! Fishermen and staff from the National Crappie League enjoyed alligator, shrimp, crawfishes, and even steak - all excellent. Our server did a great job with so many hungry guys to feed and the owners even let me peak into their world, the kitchen! Thanks for a great time!

I ordered the Monterey boudin BALL (cause they only give you 1) and crawfish etouffee. There were 2 tiny pieces of cheese in the boudin ball that weren't melted. The texture of the inside was like mush. The rice under the etouffee tasted like they cooked it the day before and reheated it. Parts of rice were hard and crunchy. They gave me a slice of cheesecake for my birthday, and it was good, but I don't think they made it. The staff was really sweet, but I won't be back.

The food was amazingly good. You get alot of food for the price and you definitely won't walk away hungry!

Amazing food at a great price!! Definitely will be back. Cajun nachos, gumbo, Gator sauce piquante and crawfish fettuccine were all great

Nope tried it twice there will not be a third. First time fried fish was a joke. 2nd time the boiled shrimp got 3 of us sick we three ate shrimp

I love the great service but if the food doesn’t match it’s a no for me. Your poboy was awesome when you first opened. Now the bun is slightly bigger than a hot dog bun and was tough to bite even where it wasnt burnt. My plate ( I opened the container before I left) was horrible. I only ate the fries and shrimp. I can understand cutting food costs but I think you lost me. One young lady did bring me a container of lettuce, tomato and pickles. I couldn’t see any on the poboy because of it being smothered in sauce.
