2026 update: Sister Cities Cajun just as good as it was on my first visit, circa 2020/2021?…read more I was on the hunt for Jambalaya that I could order for my Mardi Gras themed birthday party. This night, I only wanted to try the Jambalaya, and eat the ribs, I was in luck! on my last visit, the ribs were sold out. There were every bit as delicious as I remembered them. I asked the server about the Jambalaya, and she mentioned I could get it catered for my party. I did not realize that I could have ordered it cold, to heat up when my party was ready (there is a place on the website to notate that, hopefully this helps someone) I did not mark the correct box and my Jambalaya was hot at 3 pm when my party was at 8 pm. They were so helpful with further cooking directions and my Jambalaya was perfect come party time.

Nothing was too spicy, everything was seasoned just right, and the flavors were on point. The service was great and attentive, which made the experience even better.

I might need that recipe if they're willing to share. Four stars given cause its always room for improvement.

If you're here, grab dat hurricane too. I could sip on that all day, especially in the summer.

It started off when we ordered onion rings for an appetizer and was so disappointed. They were just frozen onion rings. I would've thought that a place like this would've been homemade. The pulled pork was a bit tough and the barbecue ribs definitely did not fall off the bones. The corn casserole and the macaroni and cheese was really good. They did have trivia going on and they do have live music certain days so you might want to check their calendar to see what's going on before you head our way.

Food: Food cook to order. I opted for ( Down in Bayou)…read more their fried green tomato & shrimp Glad I did, it was cooked to perfection. Scorching hot and delicious. The cook told me I would like it, and he was right. Soup- Didn't really care for it, honestly tasted like can soup. Service: A little slow, but to be expected. Similarly to the other restaurants in the Foundry, employees are either on their phone via bluetooth or seems like not looking for business. We were waiting to place an order but the person who was taking the order is also the same person cooking. I think he was focus on cooking and talking with whoever was on the phone. A second employee came from the back to assist once more customer started to come. Honestly service got better once I started to snap photos. Ambiance - LGBTQIA flag being displayed. Welcoming Areas for improvement: I don't think think their menu does any justice in explaining the food. I saw a couple orders that looks really delicious but not how I had imagined it to look. * Greet customer and let them know you will be right with them. *Consider adding rice dishes, especially for take out orders. Fries doesn't travel well. Recommendation: Try them out the next time you are in the Foundry!

It's not really creepy creepy. And the food is extraordinary. I ate here last weekend with friends and we pretty much ordered the menu. We love Cajun and I just wanted to know what the deal is with this place. So let me just say this. It's real. It's Cajun. It's like eating in Louisiana. Personally I don't like gumbo, but that's not because of gumbo 2 geaux. Everything else I ate I loved! Check out the pictures and I think you'll see why. Anyway, if you love Cajun food, thank God you live in Alton. It's almost like you can smell the salt water from the gulf from this place.

Since there were no clams, I went for the Catfish Basket. The Catfish Basket had multiple catfish fritters, steak fries and two hush puppies. They also provided a cup full of sliced onions and pickles. Plus, a small serving of Remoulade. I enjoyed the cajun breading on the catfish, it had a flavorful spicy kick. The steak fries were cut fat and thick and I liked the seasoning. For me, they could have been crispier. The Hush Puppies were good, but I was disappointed when I saw a box of Classic Hush Puppies being delivered by their supplier. Homemade Hush Puppies are so much more flavorful. They've been promoting, Barq's Creme Soda on FB and Creme Soda was a favorite when I was growing up, so I couldn't resit ordering one. It was cool, refreshing and brought back flashes of memories. Oh, it was also a great accompaniment beverage to my Lent dinner. Customer Service is good, because chances are you will be waited on by one of the owners. They are true hands on owners and big supporters of the Alton community.
