The best Po Boys, gumbo and Cajun specialties north of Louisiana. The Jambalaya is amazing too! It's a treat to have this style of food without traveling hundreds of miles. read more

Love their food! If you need a pick me up- try their food. Everything is comforting!!!

Foods I've tried were delicious! I haven't been there, another family member always picks up our order.

I have been traveling here frequently since my local seafood joint closed. Don, the owner of this restaurant, has an upbeat personality and enthusiastic attitude about his food. Before we leave the restaurant, he tells next week's specials. I love this, because it makes me look forward to dining there next week. Kelly, who helps with all of the things (cooking, cleaning, customer service) is a great person, too. I like to talk with her if she doesn't have a lot of orders. The restaurant has a couple of tables. maybe about eight, and a counter with stools. They don't have servers. They tell you when you when your food is ready. Most people take out from here, but I eat here. I enjoy listening to the music, because Don plays music from New Orleans. For the regular menu, I enjoy oyster po' boy, tomato soup or big muffaletta sandwich. The sandwich kind of reminds me of a top-rated sub, on sesame bread with olive salad. With a half of an order, I always have leftovers. Most of the time, I have the specials, particularly the big baked catfish. This past weekend, Don fixed an excellent cream corn special. If they have Oysters Rockefeller, get them. I look forward to eating here! read more

Super friendly staff, wonderful new orleans-inspired ambiance, and incredible food! I've been to new orleans and had authentic food, and this is on par if not better than what i've had! if you're thinking about going there, please do! read more

Let's make this simple. Five stars for the Oyster po'boy. This is the real deal. They nailed the bread and the oysters were cooked perfectly. Get it fully dressed. Gumbo is great too. The Roux is the darkest I've seen and the flavor is spot on. The jambalaya was good. It was not drowning in tomato sauce, again great flavors. Beignets good, on the thicker side. The best was customer service. Generous portions and friendly staff. We will return. So nice being treated well. read more

Kelley was of great assistance in helping me craft the perfect meal for my family. Everything was solid. The Po-Boy was at the top of my list. Would suggest the Gator! read more

While I did take a break from Dons food while we lived in San Antonio, now that we are back in the area, it's great to have this place as an additional option to the booths corner location. On my most recent visit, I had a 1/2 Poe boy of fried oysters. It is always fresh and tasty. Joan is absolutely obsessed with the fried green tomatoes with shrimp and remoulade. Forgot to take pictures, but I am positive we will be back for those. read more

Best Cajun food I've had outside of Louisiana, no joke. The definition of a hidden gem. You've gotta try it if you even remotely like New Orleans food read more

Cajun Kate's Philly Pike - Shrimp Poboy - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

There are many reasons why a Cajun restaurant has thrived in the Delaware-Pennsylvania borderlands for 19 years. Chief of all is the owner-chefs husband-wife team. Their food service resume is excellent, but the dedication to their menu shows in every meal my family has had from them over those 19 years. Don't let the quirky mini strip mall location fool you, the restaurant is very clean and the ambiance and crew are fun! Do yourself a favor and stop in for hot food, or order ahead and ask for it cold. Reheating any of their dishes results is excellent results, and several days of enjoyment. I love the shrimp and sausage gumbo and the spicy red beans and rice the most, but I've never had anything that wasn't amazing. Order something you e never had with full confidence that you'll love it. I'm looking forward to eating there this week! read more

Yummmmmm...my husband raves about this place and we finally got take out from here the other weekend. We ordered a variety of items: jambalaya, shrimp po boy, fried cajun mac n cheese with crab, bacon and corn, 6 beignets and a slice of kings cake. Omg the shrimp po boy was delicious. Way better than anything I tried in New Orleans (prob trying the wrong places while I was there). Favorite thing I got. The fried mac. N cheese was also very delicious and came with the sweet bbq like dipping sauce. Kings cake was good but very doughy and beignets were good but also very doughy. Over food is great here! Would def. Come back and order more things in the future :) read more

Outstanding Cajun food the crusted, catfish and pork chops were incredibly different and delicious. Their hush puppies and collard greens are the absolute best. read more

This place is an absolute gem and must try for anyone who hasn't been. Every item on the menu is delicious, fresh and may have you over order. The owner and staff provide samples, recommendations and great to chat with. It's a foodie's dream coming here. My favorite is the alligator sausage po boy. read more

Ok, everything we ordered here was delicious. And big portions. The muffaletta sandwich was delicious, not a plain meat and cheese sandwich, the olive salad made it really good. Get it with the delicious tomato soup, they go together so well. Catfish poboy also so good, fresh veggies and not dry at all. Fried mac n cheese with brisket was great and the horseradish and BBQ sauces kicked it up. Great local establishment, staff super nice and friendly. Very clean inside. read more

Freaking DELICIOUS!!! And the staff was super friendly. Was my first visit, and she told me about all the food and gave me some samples.

Great food, friendly staff, ample seating, rotating specials, reasonable prices, good-sized portions. Can't wait to return!

Fabulous soft shell crab po-boy specials on some weeks during the late spring and summer. Nuff said. But their fried oyster po-boys are delicious too. All of their po-boys are served with crispy bread, super fresh tomatoes and lettuce, sandwich spread and pickles but I leave off the last two and bring my own cocktail sauce for a sandwich that's to die for. And all of the po-boys can be ordered by the half or whole. They also have good gumbo and if you're feeling adventurous they also have boudin balls and hush puppies but the latter are not your average hush puppy but more of a nawlins take on them. Super friendly employees and did I mention they have beignets. Cheaper and closer than a visit to Cafe Du Monde. Laissez les bons temps rouler! read more

Wow. I was recommended this from my air bnb hosts. Freaking awesome. I got shrimp and chicken jambalaya, deep fried seafood Mac n cheese with crawfish, shrimp, and lobster, and beignets. This is some great food for even greater prices. Take out/carry out orders only for COVID. The chefs were more than happy to share their favorites. I was more than happy. The community agrees as well. read more

Cajun Kate's is amazing!!! Been here and the other location many times, and there is nothing like it in the tri-state area! I like that the Philly Pike location has a dining space with ample seating. It is a nice contrast from the Booth's Corner counter seats. They both offer the same wealth of food options, but they have different specials on certain days. However, the main difference is that Philly Pike accepts credit cards, whereas Booth's Corner only takes cash! I ordered my favorites-- Jambalaya, Crawfish Pie, and the beignets the last time went in. DELICIOUS AS ALWAYS. I am heading to New Orleans soon, and I wonder if it will be as good read more

Every time I've been here the food has been wonderful as was the very friendly service. The catfish po'boy is a real treat!

muffuletta is way better than a hoagie. I only had 2 in my life. One was from Central Grocery in New Orleans and this one. Just as good. Po boys are great. Can't wait to try everything read more

Food has been really good the times I've gotten it. We lived in Baton Rouge and it tasted like real LA cousins. read more

I had been anxiously awaiting the opening of this location since I first Yelped about it months ago. Then they opened and for the life of me I couldn't get there..that is until today finally. First impressions of the new digs, nice decor and the set up of the kitchen workspace with a counter facing it is exactly how it's set up at Booths Corner only much more spacious. The table area is comfortably cozy. The downside is to say parking is limited is an understatement but it can't be helped. You'll have to get creative. So on a cold day like this I was craving a bowl of slow roasted goodness which is Cochon de Lait Gumbo. Curled up under a blanket bowl in hand watching a good movie I'm perfectly content. Saved the Jambalaya for tomorrows lunch. There are a few things on the menu I still have yet to try that I'm interested in but I wuss out every time. Specifically the gator on a stick and the crawfish pie but I'm working up the nerve. My old favorites have remained the same since day one. Love the consistency at Kate's and looking forward to a dine in experience. read more

Great Place. Authentic food. Great location! Definitely a must stop by if you're coming in or leaving out!

Delicious well prepared authentic tasting Cajun food. I've been going here for years! So happy they have two locations. Love the mac & cheese! The gumbo and jambalaya is always perfect.

Absolutely love this place!! Everything is fresh and delicious. Would highly recommend and will certainly be returning

We had the pleasure of finding Cajun Kate's when searching for a place to cater a large 65 person New Orleans themed party. We met with the owners who were wonderful, sampled the menu, and were estatic about the quality and authencity of the food. They helped us plan a menu and like clockwork our very large order was ready and fantastic. The Jambalaya and Gator bites were the biggest hits, but many of our guests who spent time in New Orleans enjoyed all the items, po boys, Muffalattas, fried crawfish, red beans with rice, and the slaw and collard sides. The desserts were also a big hit as all enjoyed the banana foster bread pudding and the calas. Very much recommended Cajun Kate's for catering or just dining the food is delicious. read more

Pretty darn good. Quality was on the higher end not any cheap ingredients. Would recommend if your looking for something a little different.

Cajun Kate's has great service and delicious beignets for great prices! I will definitely be returning!! read more

Cajun Kate's Philly Pike - AMAZING SERVICE AND FOOD! - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

Food was good. Service shaky. If I give you the money in your hand I expect the change in my hand, not dropped on the counter. Very rude.

I love the foods found in New Orleans Louisiana: gumbo, jambalaya, muffalatas, PO boys etc. I've been fortunate to have visited the area many times through the years and sampled the best restaurants in that area. Cajun Kate's offers legitimate Cajun food, as-good-as-the-best NOLA restaurants without the need of a plane ticket or a 3 hour flight.. There is nowhere in this area that comes close. When I heard they were opening a second location in Bellefonte on Philly Pike I was excited. But now, after visiting the new location, I feel like an 21 year old visiting their first Mardi Gras. Let the good times roll! Located in a tiny strip mall with limited parking, the new location is a larger version of the Booths Corner spot with about 10 tables and a bathroom. Of course, great music is playing on the stereo as great Cajun food and great music are closely aligned for owner and chef Don. He creates the food but he truly loves the music. And this customer digs it as well. We got fully dressed po boy sandwich halves - my lady had the oyster and I had the shrimp. I also got a small cup of their incredible delicious spicy red beans and rice and a small cup of the most amazing tomato soup with pesto,cheese and croutons. It might not be Cajun but it's OH MY HIGHER POWER delicious. Of course, we took home a quart of chicken and sausage gumbo - my favorite gumbo of any restaurant including any I tried in NOLA - and a large jambalaya. If I could give this restaurant 10 stars, I would. It's THAT good. Great people, great service, great food, great vibe. It doesn't get better than this for Cajun food. read more

Great Cajun food - red beans and rice, jambalaya, collard greens, gumbo, fried chicken, fried oysters.

Y'all know I'm addicted to food right? It should be a cardinal sin to eat this well This damn tomato garlic parmesan soup! The powered sugar donut things you dip in your coffee! THE CRAWFISH PIE!!!!!! It's CRAZY Seriously this is what I think about when I get to the Delaware state line...these folks can cook!!!! Excellent staff, great prices, and if you catch that parking lot early you might be able to park in the front! This place is perfect! read more

My second time here and they don't disappoint, staff is amazing hey offer samples of all of their food which means they want you to taste how good their food is. I love the greens, I don't eat pork but I eat around it, they have a different deep fried man cheese every week, today I had corn and crab fried mac n cheese and it was great along with Their special CTG sauce ask about it , and then had greens and shrimp Gumbo for the weekly special all very flavorful, if you are in the area definitely check it out ! read more
