Cajun Restaurants near Bronx, NY

“I went to BOBO'S Crab shack the other day because I wanted to go to a different place that was closed when I got there. I ordered Whiting and fries with some Elote. When I got home and had the dinner I enjoyed the food. I will be going back again when I want some Fish and chips.“

“The seafood is awesome. The stuffs are polite & friendly“

“Needed to get lunch after riding the NYC Ferry for 2 hours. Decided to hit this place up as wifey loves seafood. Was seated right away. Not busy at all.

Ordered the lobster roll and the fried softshell crab po boy. Both came with fries - if you decline the fries you save $1.50. If you change it to sweet potato fries it’s $1 more. We got the sweet potato fries without knowing this until we got our bill.

Either way there was a wait for the food. But it was pretty good. The po boy was seasoned well. The bread that it came on was toasted perfectly and not too much. The sweet potato fries were standard.

As for the lobster roll it was weird in that most places usually offer it hot with butter or cold with mayo. This place it was hot with mayo 🤔 but wifey liked it.

Service was good except for the effort on the upsell to garlic noodles. No thanks.

Oh and they sell corn dogs too!“

“Food is very fresh and excellent. Our server, Sandy was very friendly and attentive to our needs“

“I was there for Mother’s Day (had a reservation). The staff is friendly and very attentive. And the food was delicious. Will definitely try it again.“

“Calamares y cóctel delicioso“

“The food was great 👍 love the seafood so much!“

“We were pleasantly surprised by the food. We asked our waiter if they had fried clams and he looked at us like we were crazy. He said he had no clue what we were talking about. We just chuckled and said it doesn’t matter. When we got our meal to share, we were shocked to see it being delivered in an anchor hocking glass baking dish 😂 The food was really good though 🙃“

“Great food, large portions, and great service!“

“Amazing, unique and delicious food in a very cozy setting. Be prepared to meet your neighbors as you adventure through one delicious plate after another.“

“I went with a group of friends for my birthday last night. It was AMAZING. The service was great, everyone was so friendly. The place itself was so clean and cute, really cool vibe. The Apps were great, Hush Puppies and Fried Calamari, yum. I did a make-your-own Seafood Boil. OH MY GOD. The New Zealand Mussels, King Crab and Dungeness Crab was out of this world in the Cajun Butter Sauce. I HIGHLY recommend this spot and will be going back.“

“Everything is just so good. I will be back.“

“Check out 1803 NYC — fantastic vibes, live Latin music, and delicious cocktails!“

“The service was amazing plus the Mexican People where amazing they always asking if w writhing was okay ..“

“The $30 AYCE weekday lunch special is a great deal.
I pay an extra $10 to add a whole lobster, so for $40 I'm getting an amazing lunch plus a generous amsoze whole lobster. For me, That's a much better deal than spending over $50 for dinner and no included lobster for that price.

On the other hand if you are more of a snow crab person, The higher price dinner includes that.
still I would look to Wednesdays because I think they may have a BOGO on snow crab (non-AYCE).“

“I had a wonderful time, the food was delicious, strong drinks. Plenty of food, beautiful restaurant. Definitely worth it. Plus we got a little loud and they were fine with it. Didn’t feel threatened lol“

“The food is absolutely delicious!!! Everything we tried was amazing, with excellent quality and flavor. When it comes to the food, 10/10 absolutely worth it!!!

The only downside is the space. It’s very small and extremely crowded, which can make the dining experience feel a little uncomfortable.

But as far as the food and flavor go, 100 points. Absolutely delicious!!!!“

“Two Boots Pizza on the Upper East Side is hands down one of my favorite pizza spots! Their pizza is absolutely amazing, and I love that they have fantastic options for people who are gluten-free and vegan. It's not always easy to find a place that does both well, but Two Boots really delivers on flavor and quality.

I also have to give a special shoutout to the store manager, Wilisha. She is incredibly kind, professional, and genuinely attentive to every customer who walks through the door. You can tell she truly cares about providing a great experience, and that level of customer service makes all the difference.

Great food, great atmosphere, and outstanding service. I highly recommend Two Boots Pizza to anyone looking for delicious pizza, whether you have dietary restrictions or not. Five out of five stars!“

“Honestly, such a great experience at Captain Loui’s! The manager and the waiters were amazing and made us feel so welcome from the moment we walked in. They were super friendly, attentive and made sure everything was good throughout our whole meal. The food was also SO good everything was fresh, flavorful and came out perfectly. You can really tell the staff cares about the customers and wants everyone to have a good experience. We had such a nice time here and I would definitely come back again. Highly recommend!“

“We went in earlier for the rooftop seats, they still let us go up. But it was too hot so we went downstairs. They were very accommodating and the service was superb. We ordered brunch and all three people enjoyed their food. It's a great restaurant if I live nearby, I would love to come again.“

“The food was absolutely, beyond amazing! Best burger i have ever had and the steak was like butter melting with every bite. I know it's a sea food place but the steaks are done right. Service was the anytime we needed anything and the world cup was playing so it's awesome. It's great and affordable for the area. Recommend for sure and thank you!“

“I rarely write a review but I have been obsessed with Crab Du Jour since they opened in Harlem. My experience here has been delightful from the food to the friendly and attentive staff members who make customers feel right at home. If you are a seafood lover who’s in the mood for mouth-watering authentic Cajun dishes that won't break the bank, look no further than Crab Du Jour in Harlem; just steps away from the hustle and bustle of 125th Street. Their signature boils are an absolute must-try! They offer a variety of options like Crawfish, Shrimp, Snow Crab legs, Dungeness Crabs and Lobster Tail – all cooked to perfection! Each boil comes with potatoes and corn on the cob and your choice of classic garlic butter, lemon pepper, and the original Cajun or Crab du jour special, sauce. I usually add sausage to my boil; Yummy! Looking for something other than boils, there are plenty of choices! They offer dishes like po’ boys sandwiches which come with fried oysters or fried fish filets. My friend really likes the crispy chicken po’boy. They also offer fried shrimp baskets, or crab cake baskets, just to name a few. Regardless of what you choose off the menu here, you can be sure that it will be delicious and flavorful every single time!“

“Clean environment selling raw whole fish for decent prices in upper East Harlem, bringing a fish butcher shop close to me in my neighborhood instead of having to go to China town. Love that they also serve affordable Chinese, sushi, and even seafood boil dishes. Very authentic and wholesome location.“

“I’ve been coming here for the past few months since I moved into the neighborhood. The owner is fantastic and treats me like a friend. Additionally, Mahmoud, one of the chefs, does a great job in cooking me my go to chicken and lamb platter and serves me with class.“

“BEST SEA RESTAURANT IN NYC. Ordered 2lbs of shrimp and then 3lbs more, I ended up eating only 3.5 out of 5lbs bcs Im a dumbass and order a lot. But guess what im gonna have for breakfast tomorrow 😇
Staff were super friendly. Ardy was the best server I have seen in a loooooong time.
BEFORE I LEAVE: THE SAUCE THAT THEY PUT IS AMAZING. First bite and you feel like the besttt“

“Le Bilboquet is one of those places I only needed to visit once to understand the mythology. I went for lunch with a remarkably well-connected South African who had built an impressively cosmopolitan network spanning global finance, foreign affairs, and philanthropy. Our conversation unfolded in wonderfully predictable Manhattan fashion, moving fluidly among markets, geopolitics, and people who seemed perpetually one phone call away from appearing in The New York Times. I had essentially zero organic connection to that world, yet somehow kept finding myself in scenes like this one: a public school kid from the Midwest at Le Bilboquet, earnestly nodding along with a South African socialite and financier over $40 chicken and fries and an $11 Diet Coke, as though this were an entirely normal way to spend lunch.

More than anything, the centerpiece here is the people-watching. However, the famous Cajun chicken and fries were beyond delicious, and whatever seasoning they use deserves international recognition. Ron Perelman’s table seemed as firmly embedded in the restaurant's social geography as Central Park itself. At the same time, the flowers, polished French interiors, and choreography of the staff make lunch feel quintessentially Madison Avenue. The entire production has an unapologetic flair that will always seduce me about New York. It knows precisely what it is and has no interest in apologizing for the spectacle.

Part of the amusement, at least for a certain demographic, is mapping the different species of Manhattan power lunch within a roughly 15-block-and-5-avenue grid. Benchmarking Le Bilboquet against The Grill, Casa Lever, Michael’s, or Milos sounds absurd when said aloud, yet the distinctions become comically legible once you have spent enough time around them. Le Bilboquet occupies more of the real estate, luxury, and design corridor, while the stretch between The Grill and Casa Lever tilts toward alternative investments and family office capital. This is ridiculous taxonomy, admittedly, but also one of the wonderfully specific social geographies that makes Manhattan endlessly entertaining.

Years earlier, nearby Barneys gave me an early education in exactly this kind of New York discernment. I was 24, fairly broke, and had finally been paid enough to afford something of genuine quality; an impossibly cool gay denim salesman seemed to appreciate my willingness to evolve my still-forming personal brand and patiently put me through exactly 12 pairs of jeans before sending me home in Double RL. In hindsight, I think he quietly anointed me some species of RRL urban gaucho before I had any idea that was the identity I was being assigned. That same mixture of taste, confidence, and theater is what I loved about Le Bilboquet: chic without becoming airless, extravagant without losing its sense of humor.“

“Ravine and Jennifer are the best ever“

“This place is 100% the best seafood! If your seafood lover is helpful to yourself, please dine here!“

“Anthony is so nice! I made a fairly large order on the phone shortly before coming in, he accommodated my order even on a busy night (NYE)! He even threw in so many extras. We really enjoyed the chicken - it really is crispy & crunchy (and juicy!). Would definitely recommend and will be coming back!“

“Good outdoor dining during covid. And the drinks are yummy too“

“Krispy Krunchy Chicken delivers exactly what you want when you are craving heavily seasoned, perfectly fried fast food. The chicken has a wonderful signature crunch, and their biscuits are pleasantly soft and warm, making them a great side option. The service counter operates with a clear focus on speed, ensuring you get your meal freshly prepared and piping hot. It is a reliable neighborhood spot to pick up a quick, filling lunch or dinner that satisfies a comfort food craving.“
