Although she was working alone (small place) you would not have known. The food was great, i had the Philly and my brother had the crawfish Philly. The fries were your normal fires at most restaurants with a very tasty seasoning. The onion rings lacked seasoning and after a few minutes you could tell all the fried foods were cooked in the same oil. Overall 9 out of 10. I will be back next week and will stop by again.

Dirty Diana -one whole fried fish over a bed of dirty rice, topped with crawfish etouffee. Pretty good dish but just a tad bit too salty for me. Down the Bayou - penne pasta tossed in house sauce, topped with fried shrimps and served with 1 piece of fried fish. The shrimp and fish were crunchy good. However the seasoning was a little salty for me. But the pasta and sauce eas delicious and helped balanced out the saltiness.

Very friendly service with a great family atmosphere. I loved the jokes integrated into the decor.read more

We stopped in here for lunch and ended up with a sampling of what in my opinion is probably the best example of cajun food done right in Houma and for miles around - everything was delicious and the service from Sarah L was outstanding. We started with the Charbroiled Oysters served with toasted french bread, the plump Louisiana oysters were succulent and dipping the french bread in the cajun butter became an obsession, definitely a must do starter - I wasn't leaving here without trying their chicken and sausage gumbo, perfect texture and complex flavors it will make you a believer, my hats off to the chef, definitely authentic - the fried catfish filets and jumbo fried shrimp platters were outstanding although we didn't do it these are the foundation of an amazing po-boy (maybe next time) - all the sides were exceptional from the fried okra and onion rings to my personal favorite the skillet fried potatoes and who could leave without a few beignets served hot covered in powdered sugar - what a meal they should have a place to lay down in the back for a "cajun nap". In my opinion if you craving some authentic cajun dishes you can't go wrong here, the portions are nice and the prices are very reasonable. Our schedule didn't allow us to return as we had planned but will definitely return when we are back in the area...

But today 1-11-26 we were not satisfied with the food and the price. My grandson had fried fish platter he said that it was very good. The other 3 of us cant say the same as him. Anyways, the server was nice the place was crowded not a bad atmosphere but the 4 of us sat scrunched up at a small table, and I ordered water like I always do at places I eat. They did not tell us it was only bottled and the fee was 2.49 per bottle. I really dont like to complain. I used to have nothing but good to say. Today was different. Im just being honest about our experience. I hope others enjoy it regardless. I had a grilled shrimp salad and there was WAY TOO MUCH cheese on it and way too much croutons. Maybe 6 shrimp. And when my plate was served I smelled a strange smell from the shrimp. The others had a type of salad and grilled chicken breast Acadiana with a cup of seafood gumbo, had too much rice in it. They had complaints about theirs too. We ended up not eating it all and did not take with us. The grandson ate all his and he was happy. We all were glad at least he enjoyed his.

The fried onion rings and fried green beans are very good, and the sauce and ranch that came with them are also both very tasty. I couldn't decide on a fried oyster poboy or fried fish poboy, so I did half and half. Either was okay...just okay. This is definitely a place I would go back again and try one of the many eye catching menu items, but this experience was just average. There's plenty of seating around the place, with an outdoor patio (pictured) right over the bayou with phenomenal views. All staff is incredibly nice and friendly, one of those places that everyone knows everyone. Order did take a bit longer to come out though. There are plaques around the restaurant where they've been voted numerous times to have the best fried chicken around or something like that. I ate 1 wing...it was okay. At that point I was a little bummed by my poboy so that may have influenced my opinion, but again this is definitely an establishment I would visit again.

What a delightful find!!…read more My wife's family is from Houma and if you are from the area, you know that the town is overrun with chain restaurants. We had seen Cafe Dominique driving by a few times downtown so we decided to have dinner there and are so glad that we did. Make no mistake; this place is not a casual dining place and not like any other place in Houma. No kids menu, no plastic utensils (or even cheap aluminum ones!), starched linen and beautiful table settings. It is pricey but worth it. The menu featured numerous upscale American dishes; rib eye steaks, crab ravioli, osso bucco, roasted chicken and all were delicious. We started with an appetizer of a local goat cheese encrusted with pistachios and served warm that was magnificent! We had more than enough for the both of us and the kids even ate some of it. My wife had the rib eye that was cooked to perfection and served with grilled asparagus and roasted potatoes. Steak was cooked a perfect medium rare and the grilled asparagus was out of this world; tender and tasty. I went with the Osso Bucco (special for the evening; they have specials each night) which was really delicious; tender and with a great tasting sauce. I was a little disappointed with the risotto that accompanied it but it was served with some of the great tasting asparagus as well so all in all, a solid dinner. The cafe is a little deceiving size-wise from the outside; looks small but once inside you can see about 3-4 different seating areas and also has a good size bar. Serve a wide variety of wines by the glass and beer by the bottle. Once the weather cools down, the outside patio will be in full swing! All in all a delightful dinner and a great find. Definitely more expensive than any other place you'll find in Houma but if tired of Copelands and the other chain restaurants, you'll be happy to eat at Cafe Dominique.
