    The atmospheres was very inviting. The hospitality was welcoming. There's a lot of improvement needed. The odor once you Enter wasn't very welcoming , the seafood is overpriced just as well as everything on the menu. You get a load of cut potatoes and half of a Half of a smoked sausage. You are charged over price for what I was assuming was a garlic butter , but they don't inform you that the sauce you're purchasing is more like a Alfredo or a garlic cream butter sauce with seasons in the sauce ( GROSS). So if you're like me I don't like no cheese base sauce with my seafood. I will not return to this establishment No what I was expecting and not my type of food. Some of my shrimp wasn't clean.

    I brag about two things in my life.. one I'm a half-Brit/half American, so I will try anything…read moreBritish. The other part about me is that I'm proud of being Southern.. and I mean southern. Mississippi/Louisiana raised. So one thing I do know is cajun food. So I stepped in with very high expectations, as I learned the chef is from New Orleans and you know that means for my reviews. I go twice as tough as usual on my reviews. And even being southern, the description of the Seafood Burger surprised me.. so I just had to. The specialty is the Seafood burger... so how could I not? Me, I probably couldn't tell you everything in it.. so let's just tell you what wasn't.. It wasn't.. "cajun" I dont know, it was one of those where I enjoyed it as seafood cuisine, even southern seafood cuisine, but it didn't stand out to me as being Cajun Cuisine. It was **Very good** seafood cuisine, yes, but there's a difference between the southern seafood and cajun food. I'm going to be a bit generous, even though it wasn't quite what I was expecting, and say this could and should be a 4* eatery, but until I manage to taste the CAJUN part of the Cajun Kitchen, I can't get it that high in the rankings. As for the ambience of the place., it's a quick pick up location (sorta like you'd hope for a food vendor or food truck in New Orleans in the Central Business district (aka, the CBD)) so nothing really pops out and can give you an ambience score. Update: went back later, figuring, I'll try again and see if it works this time.... And while the shop is still listed as being there, it's operating hours were showing it should be open, and the food truck was in the parking lot, but the door was locked up and nobody was around, so I can't hope for any improvement.. and as such gotta drop it down to 3*'s from the 3.5 it was at.

    The yaka mein SLAPS. Cajun Kitchen is the only place in STL I've seen that offers it on their menu,…read moreand the owners are NOLA natives. So you know this place is legit. They also have a food truck, so be on the lookout for it during food truck season (March-November). The brick-and-mortar is a small-ish space, looks to be mostly takeout, but there is a really cute table you can sit at and dine in. That's what I did. I got a bowl of gumbo and a bowl of red beans & rice to go as well, and the prices and portions are fair. The owners are super friendly and laid back to boot.

    BEWARE! THEY HAVE A NO REFUND POLICY...EVEN IF THEY ARE THE ONES AT FAULT!!!…read more I am so dissatisfied with my experience here. I visited this place with two of my friends. Only one of us had the opportunity to enjoy a nice meal. My friend's order was rang in wrong and mine took over 30min to arrive to the table. Then get this... IT WAS WRONG WHEN IT ARRIVED!!! Not once BUT TWICEEEEEEE! Grrrr! By the time my food got to the table everyone was finished with their meals! A woman came to the table and introduced herself as the GENERAL MANAGER! Disclaimer: She has to be related to the owners because her customer service was horrible!!!!NO EXPERIENCE! Before offering to remake my food she spent about 3 minutes explaining to me WHAT I DID TO MAKE MY ORDER WRONG as if I had the capability to ring it up and cook it myself. She offered to remake it... but then spent another 3 minutes rambling ,opposed to listening to the correct way I want my order. So, due to her lack of attentiveness, my order was wrong again! I asked for my $51.00 back and she told me that their system did not have the capability of refunding money! Sheesh! It got even more interesting when the owner came over and asked me what my issue was and thennnnn asked the GM for her side of the story RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! I wasn't on the debate team in high school or college and am not debating about crab legs in a restaurant! The OWNER should've been informed of the situation before approaching the table! Then....he too refused to refund my money. He suggested that I wait ANOTHER 30 minutes on my food for the fourth time! I explained to him that at this point it was no longer about my food; I did not have the TIME to wait. After about 10 more minutes of talking I GOT A ONE TIME REFUND. Seriously?! Which baffled me because the GM told me that it was IMPOSSIBLE! ALSO....GET THISSSSSSS..... the mother daughter duo next to me had an even worse complaint!!!! Her daughter NEVER got her food and NEVER received a refund! Say whaaaaaaa!!!! I thoroughly enjoy supporting black owned businesses ... but this was awful! You have to treat your customers better! To say that you won't refund $$$ in any situation is ridiculous; especially when your staff make several mistakes. I hope that this can serve as a learning experience to the owners and staff so that no customer will be treated like myself! If you make a mistake COMP THE MEAL! In what world do you tell a patron that hasn't received her correct order in what now has been over an hour "SORRY YOU'RE S.O.L!" Awful!!!! I hope they get better! Unfortunately, I won't be back! I'm only giving them 2 stars because EVENTUALLY I received a refund!

    I was very pleasantly surprised by this place! It opened not too long ago and I finally got a…read morechance to make it in. We were greeted very warmly and the woman who served us was friendly and chatted with us in a way I feel like you don't experience much in customer service anymore. They have a pretty extensive menu with several items I'll have to return to try. They have a 10% military discount which was nice. They also have a 3% cc processing fee they waive if you pay in cash or with a debit card. They also have high chairs. I ordered the six piece shrimp which comes with two sides; I ordered fries and hush puppies. Their drinks are huge! My husband ordered the gumbo, which was very flavorful and just a tad spicy, not so spicy you couldn't eat it. He really enjoyed the bread that came with it. We also ordered corn nuggets and fried green tomatoes, which I can't resist. They were both so good! The fried green tomatoes were thin and crispy and every so often you would get this hint of salt, the perfect amount without being salty. They have ranch, ketchup, and a house sauce and my shrimp came with some cocktail sauce. My husband loved the corn nuggets. We had food left over to take home. It's bigger inside than I expected with plenty of seating. This place was a hit and we will be back!

    The food here is unreal! They have the best catfish nuggets I have ever had. Hot, fresh, and very…read morewell seasoned with amazing homemade Cajun tartar sauce. The fries were also good as well as the pickles and onions it is served with. My fiancé had the chicken Philly, which he also really enjoyed. The interior had a weird smell, so I would recommend take-out or eating it at Manhattan's. Overall, the food is unbeatable, but ambiance could use some work. Service is very friendly! I can't wait to have the catfish nuggets again.
