My only criticism was the bread wanted to fall apart ( toasted too much?). The chicken cracklings were good and the jalapeño jelly dip with them was very good. Definitely get the bread when they ask if you want it! They put melted butter with crab boil mixed in it over the top.

Ambiance: 3/5 Parking is in front and next to the gas station. Once inside, there's table seating inside with ordering done at the front Restrooms could use an upgrade, but help get the job done. Food: 5/5 I looked over the menu and decided to try the Bayou Sampler. Comes with 2PC chicken (your choice dark or white meat or for extra cost can get mixed), red beans & rice, boudin link & biscuit. All had good flavor, except the biscuit, it was ok. Chicken wasn't greasy but moist with flavor. Red beans also very tasty and boudin link just as good. Service: 5/5 The counter server was friendly and so were the cooks, while it did take a while to get my food, it's cooked to order so that's understandable. Once I got my food, I wanted to take a photo and realized that my order was missing the chicken. Thankfully I had not left before checking it (rule of thumb for any to go order, check your food) The counter server was quick to speak to the kitchen and they brought out my full plate in short time.

Not too salty, make sure to add some corn and potatoes as it is not included in the order. - Snow crab: was just okay. Would recommend trying the shrimp or others instead! Very spicy and not very meaty. Big fan of the homey ambiance inside, and very clean!

Correctly cooked& properly seasoned for our tastes. Great table service. The iced tea was awfully weak, they swapped it for diet drinks, all OK. I've been eating here occasionally for 6 or 7 years, never a significant problem. Building is a "dive", but foods are authentic & very good. Plenty off-street parking in lot, BUT lot has very uneven surfaces and often a bit of standing water, so not a place for sandals or heels. Small mostly shaded patio behind privacy fence, like a patio courtyard. Nice helpful service persons. This place is about one minute from IH10, South from Breaux Bridge Exit on Rees Street.

I suspect chicanery on that. Try the crawfish bisque, a World's BEST. Everything here is very good to excellent. My only complaint ever is that there is no potato salad. Plenty parking in partly shaded lot. Views of Bayou Amy & just across West Levee from the Henderson Pond part of Atchafalaya Wilderness area.

We opened the door and were greeted by the live music, we got a table quickly. I like the way they give you ice water in a large container that you can pour yourself. The appetizer we tried was the fried eggplant with lump crab, and it was excellent, definitely the best eggplant dish I've had. I went the chicken and waffles for the main, waffles crisp outside tender inside and sweet but not overly sweet. The chicken had a nice spicy kick, steen syrup would have put this over the top, but got regular syrup, however this was still very tasty. The star was definitely the omelette! Wow this was special light airy like a soufflé with lump crab meat so amazing and delicious, the addition of the biscuit with the strawberry syrup and the grits made this a complete experience, definitely recommend this. Great meal to start off the New Year.
