Fred Beans & Rice: Cajun Kitchen

A hidden gem and I can’t wait to go back! The food is absolutely incredible, everything I’ve tried is so full of flavor I could eat here every week! I highly recommended the peel and eat shrimp and the gumbo..just like you were in Louisiana!

I didn’t expect to food to be that good!

I thought the food was good just wished my jambalaya had more meat in it for how much I am paying. They had a wall of hot sauce which as a hot sauce lover was much appreciated. Very cool would go back.

Accidentally landed here when I came to buy olive oil next door. Bartender was friendly and provided good service. Our food was delecious. Prime and Proper, jambalaya, and sopping & spicy. Yum. This is a good place to get moctails and non alcoholic beer, too. Will be back again.

Great food!
Jambalaya and Red Beans and rice were outstanding

Food here was just okay. I guess probably acceptable enough for bar food. The nachos were COLD. But the chicken on it was tasty. I will say the jambalaya was disappointing. It was literally made from a box of Zatarain’s and a can of rotel. I know this because I make this frequently in the fall in a crockpot for camping. So I thought that was kind of lame. At least the shrimp on it was quite good! If you’re an actual Cajun looking for a good home cooked meal you probably would be not impressed with this place. But if you’re coming here for a causal bar hangout it’s probably acceptable enough food wise. Service was good at least and the vibe is fun.

My 21 yo son and I went here for lunch because he loves Jambalaya. We were shocked by how good it was. Excellent flavor, especially with the blackened shrimp added. They also have a large assortment of hot sauces for you to try. The beers were very good as well... I had a Belgian and it was excellent. Highly recommend for a comfortable place to chill that has great food and beer.

Knox brew hub is a staple downtown, the addition of Fred beans and rice has truly been a gift to me. As a bartender downtown, a weekend warrior as we say, I have some long long shifts. This place is my go to for something hardy and delicious. I love these guys and you will too!
