    Grilled Mahi Mahi with vegetables
    Anthony M.

    I travel here and there for work and this is an amazing little place in rural Louisiana. It had very sweet and attentive staff and amazing food. I got the grilled Mahi Mahi that was topped with an amazing sauce. Everything was cooked to perfection and very flavorful.

    Stellar. Close at 8:30. Group of 5. We call and ask if they'll take us at 8:15. They say yes. They call back to confirm, we tell them we aren't coming, other place we were going ends up closed, so we came in anyway to see. They still took us, even with how late and last minute it was. Food? Amazing. My husband almost cried (mahi + shrimp and grits). Me? I hate restaurant pasta. I hate eggplant pasta. I ordered eggplant pasta. Amazing. Changed my perspective. 10 out of 10. Almost had me licking the plate like a feral dog. And our waitress? (Abby (?) Abbie (?)) Amazing. Didn't seem bothered at all by (a) our group size or (b) our time of arrival. Actually genuinely seemed like she enjoys her job. If you're reading this, you're a star and a gem, and I hope your check engine light never comes on and your pillow is cool on both sides.

    I had the Shrimp and creamy Grits- mushrooms and onions were sautéed with a bit of sauce.

    Our family go to Cher Amie's for birthday celebrations more than any other local restaurant. We went on June 15, 2023 to celebrate my father's 85th birthday, his choice! My sister called for reservations and told them that it was dad's 85th birthday. Seated next to us was my High School French teacher, mentor, and part of the reason I got my first Bachelor's degrees in French! It is not possible for me to go to a restaurant and not be in some way related and to also have special connections with several individuals in the mass of diners who are in some way my distant cousins! This is a restaurant where locals do eat. The serving staff is always friendly and attentive. Our waitress was on her second shift, she was amazing!, as was her supervisor/trainer. The menu is vast. Everything I have tried has been delicious, I love the eggplant dishes! And the soft shelled crab dishes - they clean them well! Every once in a while I have to have a crab pistolette, a deep fried football-shaped fresh baked bread, placed in the serving plate and it is cut in half using the perfect height serving small oval dish and the sauce is laced generously over the bottom slice of bread and topped with that golden brown top. There is a reason that every table has a roll of paper towels on it and if you pick up that pistolette by hand, because that's how us Cajuns do it, you will need more than the napkin around your utensils and straw, multiple paper towels will be needed. The pistolettes can be filled with any of the following cheesy seafood sauces where the seafood is plentiful: crab, shrimp, and crawfish. Each type is delicious! I chose to only have my entrée, as did everyone. As was the case of the food we ordered. My dad ate his fill and got a go box to snack later. The rest of us ate all of our food, except I couldn't eat the buttered Texas Toast on my plate, I wrapped it initially in my napkin but ask for a paper towel because of the butter on the end. When we finished our meal, a plate was brought out with a brownie and vanilla ice cream on top. On the side written beautifully in a raspberry sauce was: Happy Birthday Mr. Norman and the training server made the following announcement to the full restaurant: Excuse me, May I have your attention please, tonight we are celebrating the 85th birthday of Mr Norman and began singing with the entire restaurant singing gleefully, the Happy Birthday song,. The smile of delight on his face was a precious memory for me. Someone was leaving right after the song ended and cheered for Dad, a man passed and touched his shoulder to get his attention then shook his hand and said congratulations on getting to 85, Happy Birthday! My dad said, with his classic grin I am going to make it to 100! The gentleman smiled saying I am sure you will, as he left. Every one at the table helped him eat the warm brownie with the soft scoop of Vanilla ice cream and drizzle of chocolate sauce and scooping up the raspberry message with the bites of brownie! It was a typical family birth day celebration. Cher Amie's is a local joke. It means Dear Friend in French but as one word, Cheramie, it is a local Cajun last name! When my daughter and I got home she and I broke up the Texas Toast into tiny pieces so each member of my flock could get a treat. We have my 18 hens and a recent member to join the flock less than a month ago was a scrawny rooster named Volcano by my daughter because of his markings. In 3 weeks has learned to crow, and has doubled in size. And they came down from their roosting the flock, minus Volcano who made sure his ladies all got some goodies, here nothing goes to waste. Back to the food at Cher Amie's each item is like a volcano in your mouth from the delicious flavor combinations we so enjoyed in the southeastern section of ,Cajun Country in Louisiana- our food will have a little heat, but we prefer to season our food with onion, celery, bell (red is my preference) and garlic, lots of garlic! It is worth taking a road trip outside of New Orleans the area of the country that has the second highest concentration of native French speakers! My dad and his 95 year old sister are in that group. Don't think you are getting real Cajun for in the big city, come down to South Lafourche and eat at Cher Amie's! You will be delighted!

    Grilled mahi mahi with veggies
    Linda R.

    Some of the friendliest folk working here which is always a plus but the food was good too! We started with fried okra which wasn't my favorite (personal preference). We then shared a grilled mahi mahi which came with mixed veggies, all good.

    This place is delicious! Anytime I'm craving some Cajun food or have family visiting who wants to try some authentic food from here - this is the place we go! Today we ordered some food to go and even 30 min later it looked and tasted incredible! Soooo worth it! All the seafood and Cajun flavors you could ever dream of!

    Wow so much to say! This place is such a gem on the bayou…read more The food is true, authentic Cajun food. My husband has lived on the bayou his entire life and said this is a the only place around here that sticks to its roots. Good, home cooking. No twists and extra things to try and elevate it. It stands all on its own! The decor is so cute! Cajun, down the bayou phrases and photos. Clean! Also plays Cajun music so it really sets up the whole vibe. Okay, the FOOD! We started with the shrimp boulettes, mushroom and Brie soup, and the corn bisque. SO GOOD. Seasoned so well which so many restaurants lack these days!! The boulettes were fried perfectly, not soggy or over greased. For entrees my husband got the "taste of the bayou" which had jambalaya, red beans and rice, and crawfish etouffee. All of them were seasoned perfectly, great sized portions, and just so full of flavor! I got the cochon de lait panini and it was so yummy. The meat was drenched in a tangy sauce and pressed in such yummy bread. I loved it. Came with a side of potato salad but there were also other options. It was so good! Lastly we got the brownie a la mode. It had melted chocolate chips inside and literally melted in your mouth. Didn't get a pic bc we ate it too quickly. Everything was delicious! Also they had the cutest little Cajun menu for the kids. Really great restaurant! Service was amazing from our server Shay. Will definitely be back!

    Clean, good crawfish, very friendly staff too. I prefer more of a spicy hot crawfish but these were…read morenot spicy hot they were bearable to anyone that doesn't like too much spice on there crawfish. Fastest Service and tasty snack.
