Cajun Restaurants near Portsmouth, VA

“The fried chicken here is amazing. For me the best fried chicken I've had in the area. If you're not doing in I recommend you order ahead as they cook your chicken when you order it, so you can end up waiting 20-25 minutes if you don't. But it IS worth the wait! I don't know how they are able to get the chicken so flavorful, crunchy, and moist. We had the 12 piece dark, family meal with mashed potatoes and gravy, which are really good also. The meal was so good, we went back the next day! This location is connected to another spot, and though there's seating I think it's mainly set up to be a takeout spot. I highly recommend.“

“We had no idea what to expect here and we’re blown away by the food. It tasted fantastic! Red beans and rice and oxtail were the most authentic dishes I’ve had outside Louisiana. Staff is friendly and the environment is very upscale! We can’t wait to come back.“

“Great food, we tried different oysters, and the Crab Spring Rolls were great. The prices were reasonable and the servers were very intentional. They asked if we were celebrating anything special and the end of the meal they brought my husband out a birthday celebration desert, very nice!“

“Super slow!! I even had my lil sis go order the food pay for it and I picked it up when I got off which was like 30 minutes after she ordered everything and they told me I still had 10 minutes before food was ready. Wow really. So I don’t come here often and it’s expensive. Food is ok on a good day.“

“My wife and I went to the twisted crab for our anniversary. It appears to be a large facility and we were greeted with a smile and seated immediately. We both ordered snow crab dishes. The food came out to us very quickly and was exceptionally hot. Very nice.My beef with the service is that we both ordered crab but were left picking our crab without crab crackers or anything to extract the meat (we were given plastic forks). My wife asked for crackers which were brought to us but why would we need to ask for these. There were other service related items I was less than impressed with.My wife, on the other hand, was over the moon with everything. I asked her how she would rate her experience and she said 10 out of 5. She wants to go back, I'm not sure that I want to.The food was wonderful so I went with my wife's recommendation for this review.“

“The food was really good... didn't think that management made the right decision to give a newbie a party of 11 on her 3rd day ... ? so you can imagine the frustration of getting the orders to the right person and payments done properly. .. was my first time there! Loved the music selections ... nice “
