Papa Boudreaux's Cajun Cafe

Wonderfully delicious!

Forget everything you've been told about Cajun food. You've been lied to. Especially in Tennessee. Take the drive to Papa's in Santa Fe. A buddy from Louisiana tipped me off on this place today. I'm extremely upset I've never been here until now. Call for a reservation because it's a small hole in the wall place with limited seating. Tell her Troy sent you. You won't be disappointed. 🔥🔥🔥

Food is always the best. Service is always fairly good. Always takes a while to get the food, but well worth the wait as they prepare it fresh. There were too many kids tonight, so they were extremely loud, and they were running in and out, leaving the door open constantly, and we were sitting by the door. Apparently, their parents weren't concerned about any other patrons. There were 8 kids in the building as it is a very small building, making it very loud.

Amazing portions, great flavor, and excellent service. We will definitely be back! Reservation highly recommended as the dining room is very small. Worth it!

Ran across this place yesterday on a motorcycle ride. Normally you need a reservation but I was able to get in for an incredible meal. Had Gospel Creole. Really amazing. Best part of the meal was getting to speak at length with Papa Boudreaux. Truly an amazing place. I will be back.

Great food. Huge portions but a bit pricey. Eclectic atmosphere.

Food was fabulous. Would love to go again, it’s just a little far.

My wife and l ate there for the first time. The food and service was awesome. Definitely will be back.

Hands down the best place to get Cajun food outside of New Orleans. The food is...it's hard to describe how good it is. It's worth the drive. This isn't a restaurant. It's an experience. It's an event. And it's just Damn. Good. Food. If you can get a table...this is the place to go.

One of the best places I've ever eaten!
