Fries are thicker potato fries instead of their usual thin ones. Shrimp was still good as was the dirty rice. Just disappointed by the change in the fish mostly.

We go to Elsie's frequently. All of my photos are from numerous visits…read more I typically get the Boudin or Bayou BQQ Burger however, I also like their Avocado Sandwich. My Wife typically gets their Natchitoches Meat Pies or Poulet Pot Pie. We also love their brussel sprouts and pies, the Eye of the Tiger being our favorite. They also have a good selection of drinks and beers. For some reason the smell of this place reminds me of an elementary or middle school cafeteria. The service is typically okay. The waiters/waitresses are typically quiet and very short verbally or super friendly, no in between imo. Elsie's also has very good sweet tea. The tea actually tastes like tea if that makes sense. As if they use better quality tea or brew it differently than most restaurants.

They have been featured on Food Network's "Diners, Drive In's, and Dives" and have the pictures with Guy Fieri prominently displayed to prove it. The interior is eclectic, which is comforting. While BBQ is the main emphasis here, there are a number of other things on the menu. One of these that's really popular is the seafood stuffed potatoes. These are gigantic baked potatoes that come with shrimp or catfish, with our without crawfish étouffée. Seafood is a definite option here, and one can have it on Friday or any other day. But let's discuss the BBQ. They have smoked turkey that's never dry, and this is great in a sandwich or plate. The smoked wings are another favorite of mine. Then there is the smoked meatloaf, which is great in po-boy form. The ribs and brisket are also very worthy options. I think a two meat plate is a good way to enjoy the BBQ as it allows variety in tasting! Then one has to be pleased by the wide selection of sides. Variety is always great, especially when it includes uncommonly great options like fried green beans, red beans and rice, and Cajun Dirty Rice. One can always get coleslaw and beans if you are a fan of the classics. They even have desserts, if one has any room left for them. I rarely do...

The place is large and they opened up the rooftop in the last few years so there is usually seating available. The food typically comes out fairly quickly, but it can get very busy so a little patience is needed at times. As for the food, this is a classic Cajun spot. Come get alligator bites, boudin balls, catfish, poboys, red beans and rice, jambalaya, etc. You name it, and they probably have it. The food is always good and the portions are large.

I was also told that it'd be 20 to 25 minutes, but it ended up being much closer to 40. Ordinarily that would bother me, but luckily on that day I had nothing else to do and everything was piping hot so I really couldn't complain. I do wish there was an easier way to find the menu online, I had to ask what all they had over the phone. For two plates my order came out to $38, and each plate comes with three sides and corn bread. I'd eat here again.

The bbq salmon is good if you like more of a sweet salmon taste. I subbed the corn for mashed potatoes. The crawfish dip was mostly good it just didn't have a lot of crawfish in it. I also tried the brisket burger and it was externally yummy! Overall it's pretty good. The drinks are well priced, the food is maybe slightlyyyy pricey for what you get but great experience and nothing I batted an eye at. Cute little rustic vibe in the inside. I would go again

We had some running around to do and decided to stop there for a quick lunch. Splitting a burger was the plan but who can pass up their Crawfish and Brie Queso?!? Emma F was fabulous as our wait person and never let our tea glasses get more than half empty. Also, when we told her we were splitting the burger she made sure it was done for us and served on two plates. Excellent service from an obvious professional. We love both City Pork locations however, there is something about the ambiance of the Jefferson location. It is both quaint and not pretentious so you can feel comfortable in everything from workout clothes to date night apparel.

The crawfish were flavorful, seasoned well, and priced right, which is honestly the perfect combination when you're sitting down ready to eat. They had that messy, not really spicy, addictive quality that keeps you reaching for "just one more" until the tray is empty. I also tried the buffalo wings. They weren't that great, if I'm being honest, but I was hungry so they got the job done. The crawfish are clearly the star of the show here anyway. The atmosphere felt relaxed and unpretentious, exactly the kind of place you want for seafood with friends, cold drinks, and a table full of shells piling up by the minute. If you're wondering whether I'll be back, I already have.
