Cajun Restaurants near Temple Hills, MD

“This was my first time visiting Kenny’s Kale and it was just okay to me. I had the UnCraba Kale with the Thee VanKale flavor. The crab meat was backfin meat not lump. It was too much kale in comparison to the amount of crab meat that was on the salad.For the cost it should have definitely been more. I was able to take a third of the kale and place it in the oven to make kale chips which came out great! As I reached near the bottom of the bowl it was a lot of oil and seasoning. Now the crab meat was full of flavor!The service was on point as soon as the young lady finished up the order on the phone, she greeted me, asked if this was my first visit and explained the menu. The space is cozy and inviting, but small. They do have a bar for you to grab a spirit while you wait for your order.I probably would not return on my own, but would definitely take the offer should someone be ordering from here and ask if I would like anything.“

“I recently planned a wedding reception at Dauphine's and it was incredible. The food, atmosphere and service was impeccable. The bride and groom were well taken care of, Courtney and Natalie were so easy to work with, communicative and really worked to listen to the couple's needs. It was such a fun, unique and beautiful space for a reception and provided numerous spaces to meet guest needs. The food was delicious and the staff were always on top of everything. I cannot recommend Dauphine's enough and cannot wait to go back for a delicious meal or an event!“

“Sat the bar on a solo sunday funday. It's on a nice street with street vendors. I came for the food and wasn't disappointed. The she crab soup was very good. I can't tell if the base was store bought but amount of sherry was spot on. I would probably say that if I wanted she crab soup, I'd go here from here on out. They had some soft shells and they were delicious. I should have asked for capers but that's just my preference. Drinks were well made. All in all, a tasty treat. I can't speak to the dinner experience though I'm tempted to try.“

“Came here on a whim because I had a taste for some Caribbean food and lamb chops, and I was not disappointed. When I walked in, I was immediately greeted by the staff and the premises was nice and clean. I ordered the lamb chops, rice and peas, and greens and cabbage. I also ordered the deviled eggs with shrimp as an appetizer. Though the price was a bit high it was definitely worth it. They brought my appetizer out before the entree which I must say is important to me. The deviled eggs were amazing! I got 5 of them and good sized shrimp with jerk sauce. I could eat a dozen of these!! Next the lamb chops. They were okay, tons of flavors the only thing I can say is I wish they were cooked medium/medium rare but that may be on me for not asking. These were cooked closer to medium well, which wasn't bad but not my preference. But the rice and peas were great as was the greens and cabbage. The portion sizes are good (not too much and not too little) Overall, my meal was satisfying and I would return. The staff made sure I was good (also clean bathroom!) Check this place out!“

“Embarrassed to say I tried gumbo for the first time ever, but I'm glad to say that it was at Puddin'. Very flavorful, very fresh and very filling. The service was immaculate. The server was able to make recommendations and easily talked me into trying the Brown Butter Bourbon Bread Pudding. It was so worth it!“

“My husband and I came to celebrate his birthday. The food and service is excellent. Never once did I have to ask for more water. The server was very attentive. We shared a seafood sampler for 3, very good spicy soup (can’t recall the name), and lobster pasta. Delicious!!!“

“Our family had an amazing experience at Blues Alley! This place offers great food and beverages, and the atmosphere is astounding. One of few places left to listen to high quality, live jazz music. It’ll definitely gift you a memorable experience.“

“My Fiancé and I really enjoyed our evening here. The food was hot and fresh. The prices aren't bad at all. It wasn't crowded and it's in a large space for parties. Our server was knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor, despite him being the hostess as well. He was able to juggle a few tasks and still maintain professionalism. We'll be back!“

“The server Islam was very kind and attentive. The food was amazing. I accidentally stumbled upon this place and I'm so glad I did. Never had lemon pepper fries before but since my visit, I can't stop talking about them. I can't wait to come back and try more in the menu. The fried catfish is top tier!“

“OMG!! The boil with the World Sauce is out of this world delicious! The crab and crawfish were fresh, the corn and potatoes were delicious and the sausage was incredible and super plentiful! We were honestly pleasantly surprised by how flavorful everything was! We haven't even cleared the table and I'm already writing my review. We just called the manager, Ash, to rave about the food (which we rarely do but it was THAT good) and he was SO kind and appreciative! Just go! You will be so happy you did!!! We will definitely be back, Ash!!“

“Update!!Yes I went back for dinner,they didn't disappoint either. Worth every penny I spend in there...That cornbread is a MUST HAVE!!10/10!!!!!Pictures doesn't serve this place justice cause of the lighting but one of the best brunch spot I have visited in the DMV.. Highly recommended. Will be back for dinner“

“I visited Kitchen Savages on a rainy Saturday afternoon for lunch. So it was not very crowded but it's inviting. The brunch menu was still being featured, so the choices were limited. I ordered the Chicken Wings and they were pretty good. I wished for a little more bite to the tangy sauce. I also ordered the Jerk Caesar Salad with grilled salmon. The actual salad and salmon were good, but the Jerk was very lacking. The salad was good but it had no character of a Caesar Salad, nor Jerk flavor IMO. Nonetheless, I enjoyed my salad and the Chicken wings. The vibe of this little spot is nice,chill, and friendly. I will come back for dinner. The dinner menu looks interesting. Nice addition to the reviving Historic Anacostia neighborhood.“

“Came here on Easter Sunday, it was pretty busy but my family had never had a seafood boil before.With that, Ken helped us with everything. Amazing recommendations amazing service. He helped us decide on exactly what we wanted and how much we should get.10/10 service10/10 food !!“

“The Cori Midden Kitchen is a quintessential American restaurant that offers an intimate and cozy dining experience akin to a homey dining room. The exceptional customer service, coupled with food cooked from scratch, made our brunch visit with a large party quite memorable. Our waiter, Cathy, provided attentive service, ensuring our needs were met throughout the meal. We indulged in a variety of brunch items, with favorites including the catfish nuggets and cornbread, alongside lamb chops(small lamb chops), deviled eggs, and fried tomatoes. For our entrees, the shrimp omelette, French toast, chicken and waffles, and catfish and grits were all exquisite. Despite a few minor mishaps, the overall experience was delightful, and I highly recommend this establishment for its delicious food. It was a nice touch when the chef personally greeted our table, adding to the warmth of the experience. Advisable to book your reservation in advance, I look forward to returning in the future.“

“This carryout has a nice small town feel. The restaurant is cozy, and the location is great. The menu looks really intriguing, enough to go back multiple times and try more items. The Smoked Turkey Club was a great sandwich to enjoy. However, what they call jerk chicken for their jerk chicken sandwich is anything but. It was a bit disappointing, but it won’t stop me from going back to try other menu items“

“The service was phenomenal.The gentleman that took my order,was friendly & professional.Keep up the great work.✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️He provided suggestions to me of the menu.My food was delicious,even though I ordered for takeout,the dining area was clean,as well as the staff were very friendly.I give this location ten plus stars.“

“What a nice meal! We ordered our meal to go and it took about a half hour to prepare. I got the Ocean Catch #A, which came in a big plastic bag! Perfectly cooked crab legs and shrimp and the seafood legend sauce was very tasty - it tasted like a mix of Cajun seasoning, garlic and butter. I got the mild spice level, which was flavorful but not hot. The potato and corn that it came with were also good. The seafood catches and boils seen to be the specialty and mine was worth the money. My husband's salmon was good but unexciting and would have benefited from some of the same seasoning as mine. It was also a small portion for the price. However, his New England clam chowder was thick and flavorful. My five year old had the fried white fish and seemed content with it. Although we did not eat in the restaurant, it was well decorated and looked inviting - hopefully I will be able to eat there in person soon! On a side note, they also have bubble tea, which was delicious!“
