    Good food and good service. Price is right in line for the food. I have been there a number of times and I have never seen disappointed.

    Food and service were average and expensive for what it was. Was hoping it would be better. It was not.

    If I'm in Louisiana, I want Cajun food. And BeauxJax does not disappoint. It's a little bit tucked…read moreaway in Bossier, but do track it down, only one of the doorfronts in the building labeled BeauxJax. I attended with a local friend and he confirmed this is authentic. The experience: Friendly staff, a long restaurant with a bar section, followed by the condiments section, followed by a whole other bar somehow? I didn't poke my head back there but I found that intriguing. More on the condiments: They come with any sandwich. I probably took unfair advantage by taking enough lettuce, tomatoes, and onions to make an entire salad. I then asked for dressing, which they happily provided at no charge. And sandwiches? Do get. Delicious bread. The default bread appears to be the French - you could opt for their sourdough if you like - and it's not toasted. I love soft bread, and the po' boy was divine as a result. I loved the boudin. I loved that they have alligator sausage in multiple places on the menu. I loved everything about this place except the fact that summer means just about all of the beers were light, and I had to hunt and peck to find beers more my style. Which I did. And maybe those beers are lingering as I type this review. But BeauxJax gave me the warm, fuzzy, welcoming feeling I love in a restaurant. A great stop in Bossier. Worth a detour from Shreveport. Legitimate Cajun.

The menu was interesting, with several Cajun-themed choices, as you would imagine. Nothing blew our socks off on the menu, but we appreciated the local brew selection. This is one of our go-to restaurants in Shreveport. It's not necessarily gourmet, but you won't be disappointed with what you get.

    We had an awesome meal and Orlandeaux's!…read more The atmosphere -- casual but also such a lovely lot and view w the panoramic windows. Makes it feel a little fancy. The food -- we loved every single thing we tried. Boudin balls, greens, shrimp and grits, catfish campti. Come hungry! Portions are big and for a fair price We got lucky and didn't wait too long but I've heard there can easy be an hour wait. You can sit in the bar area or enjoy the water view. So good I might be back tonight!

    Orlandeaux's Café in Shreveport, Louisiana, is a true Louisiana treasure and a restaurant that…read moreevery food lover should experience at least once. As the oldest continuously operating Black owned restaurant in the United States, the café has been serving incredible Creole cuisine and preserving an important piece of American culinary history since 1921. The rich history alone is worth the visit, but the outstanding food will have you coming back again and again. The legendary stuffed shrimp absolutely lives up to its reputation. Each bite is packed with flavorful Creole stuffing, perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, and incredibly satisfying. It's easy to understand why this dish has become one of Shreveport's signature foods. The red beans and rice with smoked sausage is another must-order, delivering rich, smoky flavors and comforting homemade goodness. Their gumbo is equally impressive--deep, hearty, and filled with authentic Louisiana flavor that tastes like it has been simmering for hours. And if you're craving a sandwich, the po'boy selections are loaded with delicious fillings and served on fresh bread that makes every bite memorable. The restaurant's location along Cross Lake creates a beautiful waterside atmosphere that makes the dining experience even more enjoyable. Whether you're stopping by for breakfast, lunch or dinner, the scenic views provide the perfect backdrop for a relaxing meal. The portions are generous, making the prices more than fair for the amount of food you receive. You definitely leave feeling like you got excellent value for your money. Even better, the staff is welcoming, attentive, and genuinely helpful, making guests feel right at home from the moment they walk through the door. If you're visiting Shreveport and want authentic Creole cuisine with incredible history, outstanding service, generous portions, and unforgettable flavors, Orlandeaux's Café is an absolute must-visit. It's not just a meal--it's a taste of Louisiana tradition that has been passed down through generations.
