    A cockroach

    I recommend no one is here. This food is real bad. I found a roach in my food did not wanna give me my money back. He tried to give me half of my money because he said we ate half the crawfish, but we didn't see it until we got into it. I recommend the one each year.

    If you like seafood then CajunLand in the West Bank area of New Orleans is a treat. A multitude of different options to choose from. When you walk in you're warmly greeted by the staff. The place is set up like a market and the food is more buffet "ready to serve" style. I believe they have a menu for you to order additional things (fried fish, shrimp etc) that might require a wait if you so choose. My reason for stopping in was because I had a craving for crawfish. Crawfish still isn't yet in season, but $5.99/lb for pre-frozen in 2024 isn't all that bad. I ordered two pounds w/sausage, potato and an egg. I also had to get an everfresh (if you know you know if not, find out lol). Everything was good. I will say the flavor of their boil is a bit on the sweeter side compared to some of my fave spots out in the Shreveport area, but good nonetheless.

    Located on the Bestbank close to Oakwood mall. The parking lot makes it look like it is crowded inside but it has calmed down a lot since they stopped accepting ebt. Employees are courteous. The time to wait for food is never long. Today, I had a taste for a hot sausage sandwich so I went with their homemade sausage on bun dressed w/cheese. It was a little spicy but it tasted amazing. I have not had a bad meal here! My favorites here are the grilled shrimp plates, fried shrimp plates, cajun rice, and potato salad (which they discontinued).

    Trash crawfish that stunk up the house

    On 05/13/2024, I went to this business to purchase crawfish.. When I walked in, I noticed the crawfish were a lil more pricey than other businesses. SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SIGN.... I asked the guy was the crawfish "FRESH LOUISIANA" in which he gave a facial expression and said "YEA"... SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SIGN... I ordered 6lbs and went home... When I attempted to eat the crawfish I immediately notice the most of the crawfish were very light colored and not running the size of crawfish for around this time of year..... As I ate one, I immediately realized that the crawfish were not fresh but that were possibly imported, frozen, or redipped.... My wife tried them as well and we noticed that the crawfish were basically a mixture of imported, frozen, and Redipped..... TRASH TRASH TRASH ... ENDED UP THROWING EVERYTHING AWAY UNEATEN They also had an odor I guess this is why this place don't have a line out the door anymore

    Shrimp Plate, Fried Rice

    Lil quick eat spot in Terrytown, Cajunland Seafood! Tasty bites for cheap! My favorites here are the wings, shrimp plate and fried rice with extra duck sauce. I love that the shrimp are tail on! My only reason for taking a star is the odd color of the rice. I started to not eat it when I first found out about this place, but I went ahead and it's pretty good. Just don't forget the extra duck sauce! I have yet to try other items on the menu also.

    CRAWFISH!
    Ting H.

    Although it is not crawfish season, coming to New Orleans for the first time, I was DETERMINED to try some crawfish! Met a nice lady who told me she had tried Cajunland the night before and talked about how delicious it was! Made the 30 minute drive and it was soooo worth it! The staff was super kind and accommodating and showing me the different goods they offer. They had other seafood there too but didn't have any room! Menu/Food: Regular Crawfish and Extra Spicy Crawfish, Red Rice & Beans Price: Crawfish $5.49/lb!!! So Cheap!! I wanted more!! Customer Service: Amazing, great staff! Super nice and helpful! Cleanliness: Pretty Clean! Yums: CRAWFISH CRAWFISH CRAWFISH

    6" Shrimp poboy dressed
    Jeremiah L.

    Second visit. Great hot food. $3.99/lb crawfish right now. Love the shrimp, catfish, and house made hot sausage poboys. All come piping hot. Big shrimps, great dry. The gumbo is yummy. The two young guys working the front are very friendly and professional. I called an order in from ten minutes away and when I got there it came out as I was paying. A go to when I'm on the West Bank.

    Short drive to Gretna with my grilled shrimp poboy and sweet tea from Cajunland.
    Michael Y.

    Had the grilled shrimp poboy, fully dressed. Possibly one of the best of New Orleans area foods. The freshest of shrimp and bread along with the most flavorful seasonings. Highly recommend going here. Only a short drive out of downtown to Terrytown.

    The best crawfish and garlic butter snow crab legs I've ever had!!!!! I loved that they have options of regular, garlic butter and extra spicy crawfish. They also offer garlic butter or boiled snow crabs. I'll definitely be back!

    Handmade hot sausage on a bun! So dang good!!!!

    I love giving places a chance. In New Orleans, the food bar is set high. This little place with…read morelimited seating, and menu, had my curiosity. Why not... Well, if you're going to push a culture's food, you have to go all in with learning the local ways of preparation. In gist, I have to knock off 1 star for the limited sizes for poboys. Offering out only the 12 inch or the meat on bun just seems wrong, ESPECIALLY if you will charge over $10 for any poboy. It's a poor boy after all! It's New Orleans and it was known for big portions for a cheap price. Granted, that was the way before Hurricane Katrina. You lose another star for not living up to a "fully dressed" poboy. A fully dressed poboy should never feel dry. Also, I asked for Crystals hot sauce on my poboy and you forgot it. That's a culinary sin my good people. Overall, these New Orleans implants did a good job on customer service in regards of greeting and giving you an approximate wait time. Outside of that, they need to write down what customers are asking for that isn't programmed into your computer. The menu offerings are decent, and pricing is set a little too high for my liking. You may feel different. Try them out and let me know what you think. Just letting you know that for me, the poboy was too dry, and the shrimp could have been seasoned a tad bit more.

    A bit more seasoning needed. A bit disappointed. The ratings were good and did not reflect the…read moreratings. Service was okay, just took a while. Place look honestly kind of dirty or just run down a bit. Wouldn't go back, I'm sorry. Was wanting this to be good.

We stumbled upon J&J on Yelp while visiting from out of town for a volleyball tournament. The reviews were great, and the fact that it's a standalone, independent restaurant -- not a chain -- made it even more appealing. We were so eager that we pulled up before they even opened and waited in the parking lot. No shame. Here's where we went wrong: we hadn't done our homework. J&J is takeout only -- no dine-in. Since we were heading out of town that same day with no hotel room to return to, sitting down to eat simply wasn't an option for us. We had to make the tough call to find somewhere else. But here's what made all the difference -- the gentlemen who opened that morning were absolutely wonderful. Despite our situation, they welcomed us in without hesitation, made sure we had a place to sit while we figured out our next move, and never once made us feel rushed or like an inconvenience. When we explained we'd have to leave, they were completely gracious and understanding about it. Warm, genuine, and patient -- like a family member who's just happy you stopped by, even without calling first. I left without eating a single thing, and I'm still thinking about this place. J&J Seafood, you have a customer for my next Louisiana visit -- and that's a promise.

No line, and I could smell the boil from the Main Street! Now, it's still early in the season so it was $8.99/lb but still worth it. Crawfish was juicy, flavorful, with tolerable spice! Listen, this is NOT a dine-in type of place, so get yours and find you somewhere else to congregate lol I love that it's a smaller, family owned business because the customer service is a 10, ALWAYS.
