Lil Easy is a hidden gem! If you're anywhere near the airport, this spot is a must-stop. The food is phenomenal—authentic Cajun flavors that hit all the right notes. From the perfectly seasoned gumbo to the crispy po’boys, everything we tried was top-notch. The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, with a vibe that makes you feel right at home. Whether you're just landing, about to take off, or just craving some seriously good eats, Lil Easy is the place to be!

Easily one of the best happy hours in town, and one of the only late night HH I know of. Great frozen pain killer and gumbo. Super chill vibe on a Tuesday night.

Husband and I stopped by for a bite to eat and some outside time. This place was amazing from the staff to the food to the live band and overall great atmosphere. My husband is from Louisiana and he loved everything and said this is true Cajun cuisine and you can tell love is put into everything they make. We will definitely be back amazing spot! Thank you!

There is much to love about Lil Easy but we had an especially great experience this week. Our server, Erika, was amazing and Cody was playing old school jams from the bar. They both made for a perfect evening!

The Cajun meat pie was very good. The crackling by T-Roy, it was just fried meat. The seafood gumbo was below average, it tasted like it came out of a can. The pork belly bánh mi was just ok. It is good for the price but nothing to rave about for us.

This was a fun unexpected find. Cocktails were good, service was great. Dining partners raved about shrimp basket. I look forward to go back for a full meal.

We just happened upon this place. What a fantastic time we had! It was made even better by hanging with Bruce Gritter. Thanks Bruce! We look forward to being in Austin with you again very soon! Celeste and

Food was great, but service was even better- I think Bruce was his name? I wish I could find that level of service every where I go. Will be back, the red beans and rice are worth it.

Come for the happy hour stay for the food! Casual, solid NOLA food joint on the east side. Friendly service and good value. We tried the hush puppies, gumbo, shrimp basket and red beans and rice. Rice was cooked perfectly and the shrimp was fresh.

A friend took a group of us here and we were blown away with the delicious starters (I think we literally sampled everything). A big variety of frozen drinks—we had small samples of about 8 of them—all great! Then everyone raved about their entree. I didn’t even know the restaurant was there but can’t wait to go back!
