We usually try restaurants off the main tourist area. They are usually the best. To say, The grouchy Gringo did NOT disappoint. Service was great, and the food was on point. Absolutely 💯 recommend!! Sad note, they didn't have a T-shirt in my size..
During our annual stay on SPI we discovered this gem! The Grouchy Gringo is a New Orleans creole style restaurant that hits the mark. I am very familiar with Creole and Cajun cuisine from my time in Louisiana. I usually avoid these places when I’m nowhere near Louisiana… but boy am I glad that I didn’t avoid The Grouchy Gringo. We ended up eating there 4 nights in a row. The food is excellent. The service is spectacular. The ambiance is quirky and fun. And the chef...
This place is great! I over ordered on purpose but just a normal meal would have needed a box! I had the Cajun egg rolls, biscuits and gravy, hash browns, beignets and a mimosa. It was so good. Beignets we so soft and fluffy. Cajun egg rolls had so much flavor, and the rest of the meal was perfect, too. I’m excited for leftovers! Shane was an amazing server, but the girls were so much fun as well. Pro tip: sit at the bar for a great time.
