    This food was so good! Such a good option to change things up around this small town! The staff is so nice! And it's fairly priced!

    mmmm, mmmm! Can't believe we haven't been here before now! Friends brought us for dinner. Located…read morein a little shopping center, there's good parking out front. We were seated quickly. Staff is great and helpful. I had a beer but the star of this dinner is definitely the food! I went with the Half & Half combo (since I had so much trouble deciding..) Shrimp Po Boy and the Étouffée. Po Boy was outstanding. Lots of shrimp, cooked perfectly with a green crunchy breading. I went with Remoulade and it was good compliment to the Shrimp and accoutrements. The bun was what you would hope for, crunchy exterior, nice soft interior. It was also very large, not sure if I could have handled a full size Po Boy! Étouffée was also great, full of good flavors and I had to bring most of this home. It was great the next day as the flavors really settled into the rice. I sampled some of the other dishes that friends had and found them all to be really well flavored. Not overly spicy but nicely seasoned to give a great experience. So I was too full to finish the Étouffée, but I managed to find room to sample the Bread Pudding. I'm not normally a bread pudding fan, but this has me rethinking that decision entirely. So so Good! Overall great experience, great food and plenty of reasons to return to try more of the offerings!

    The food was amazing!! So authentic, & homemade like... I had ordered the étouffée, a side of…read morepotato salad, & to top it off beignet for dessert. Ambiance was nice. Seats up to at least 50. Service was exceptional. Ethan, & the owner showed us the best hospitality & service. I will def be back if I'm ever in the area. It's unfortunate, because I was just here on a business trip fr Cali... too bad it wasn't closer. Keep up the great work VOODOO GUMBO!!

    If you're missing that real New Orleans taste, Spicy Boy's in East Nashville is the spot that…read moredelivers every single time. This gem on McFerrin Ave brings true Cajun soul to Tennessee - born in NOLA and served with serious pride. The atmosphere is spot-on: Mardi Gras beads, Louisiana sports on the screens, a chill patio, and that welcoming bayou energy that makes you feel right at home. The food? Straight fire (in the best way): * Those boudin balls are crispy perfection on the outside, packed with flavorful house-made sausage inside - addictive and authentic! * The red beans and rice (loaded with smoky Andouille) is rich, hearty, and comforting - exactly what you'd crave on a cool day. * And don't even get me started on the shrimp po'boys - plump, perfectly fried Gulf shrimp piled high on that soft Leidenheimer bread, dressed just right with lettuce, tomato, mayo, and pickles. Juicy, crunchy, seasoned to perfection. One of the best po'boys I've had anywhere outside Louisiana! What seals the deal is the people. The staff is always friendly and quick, the bartenders sling great drinks (Abita on tap is clutch), and you can tell the owner pours real heart into this place - it's personal, passionate, and makes every visit feel special. Spicy Boy's nails authentic Cajun food and that lively, no-fuss atmosphere we all love. Generous portions, fair prices, and pure joy on a plate. If you're in East Nashville (or willing to drive), go now - you won't regret it. We'll be back again and again! Laissez les bons temps rouler! Here are some mouthwatering visuals to go with it - imagine these on your next visit! Here are the crispy, golden boudin balls that keep us coming back:
