My husband and I just ate there for the first time. I have been craving this type of food since I visited Louisiana a couple years ago. I sure can't make it myself and I have never found anything that compares until tonight. We split the chicken gumbo, beef po'boy and red beans and rice. Everything was excellent and the staff was so friendly!

Crab cake sandwich with red beans and rice, a double smash burger (Tuesday special) with chicken and sausage gumbo, and crawfish dip for an appetizer. Best Cajun I've had in a long time!!!

I keep getting the kale and mushroom Étouffée over and over because it's the only vegetarian entree on the menu. But that's fine with me because it's awesome. I wish the red beans and rice could be vegetarian. Maybe they will be someday. Always friendly service here, and it's next to my favorite brewery in town which is perfect.

This is a counter service instead of waiting on someone at the table, FYI. My daughter ordered the blue crab cake sandwich along a potato salad (it has bacon), and I just had a hop cake (gf, vg) as a meal. I decided to try the marquis de pils beer, is a light pilsner and brewed with French malt and hops. Since I'm not a beer drinker I asked the bartender to add some orange soda, which I was willing to pay extra, but she decided not to charge me. It tasted pretty good by itself, but I wanted it to have that sweetness touch :) on top of the natural bitterness. The restaurant was cozy having an old vintage look with photos of what the building used to be decades ago. Food was great, I loved the roasted red pepper aioli sauce they used on top of my appetizer.

Parking: There's some free parking around the local stores within the block.

I walked in on a not so busy Sunday. Only one couple at a table and all the staff gathered up at the end of the bar going over something. Someone came straight up and took my to-go order, when my order was ready they actually brought it over to crafty where i was having a drink. I had the blue crab sandwich and it was phenomenal. Loved it truly! For my side I had the baked potato salad, it was awesome and very tasty. My gf had the ettouffe, it was a large serving and good but the flavor was lacking the strength expected from Cajun food. Overall the staff was polite, the restaurant looked amazing and the food was good.

A great taste of New Orleans here in Knoxville. This little bistro does not have a lot of tables (arrive early to get a seat) but it has lots of Cajun and Creole flavor. Had the Crab Cake Eggs Benedict brunch which was perfect and a generous portion of it. You order your food and drinks at their little bar then have a seat and they bring it all to your table. If you like spicy Bloody Mary's, you'll love theirs. Something that adds to the atmosphere is a huge sky light in the ceiling that brings in a lot of light and makes it feel bigger than it is.

Born and raised in south Louisiana. I am SKEPTICAL of Cajun food around here. Tried out the chicken and sausage gumbo here today and I’m a fan! A+ for sure. They know how to make the rich dark roux like it’s supposed to be made. So happy to have good Cajun food right down the road. Can’t wait to try the rest of the dishes!

The spicy red beans and rice are authentic Creole, for sure! Reminds me of when I lived in Haiti!
