    Jerk fries
    Geneva L.

    If you want some authentic creole food then look no further. No matter what you order you can't go wrong. You can tell everything they offer is scratch made. Their po boy that has catfish and shrimp will give you the best of both worlds. The fish is cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. The shrimp is juicy and plump and compliments the fish. They also have a great ratio of meat bread and toppings. Another favorite is their red beans and rice. You have not experienced good red beans until you have tried theirs. It goes really good with the po boy. The jerk fries will blow your mind! It's like an orgasm in your mouth, you can thank me later! The customer service is amazing they are warm and friendly and are always smiling. If your in St. Louis or visiting this is a must visit spot. Oh and they sell their seasonings and sauces, and they are def worth buying

    I got a shrimp po boy from them and it was good. They served it to me faster than I was expecting and it was good. It was also fairly large; it had so many [fried] shrimp in it, almost every bite I took 1 or more shrimp fell out. So the food was good and I thought I got decent value for my money. They had a few other things on the menu that sounded good, so I might try one of those next time. I would recommend this food truck.

    Catfish Po'boy
    Jennifer C.

    9 Mile Garden visit and Crooked Boot was the first Foodtruck on the row. With several po'boys to choose from, how could I not partake. I settled on the Catfish Po'boy which was a 9" roll, 2 sizable pieces of Catfish, lettuce, tomato and sauce. That first bite confirmed my hopes and yes, it was a great sandwich. The fish was beautifully seasoned, the bread was fresh and crisp lettuce. The sauce was a great accompaniment and I'd even suggest getting an extra side of it. Overall, a wonderful sandwich and would certainly have it again.

    Crabwich, hush puppies, and okra

    Found the food truck and got some grub there. Tried to hit up their storefront, but they can't seem to find workers to staff it. Anyway, my crabwich (fried soft shell crab on a pretzel bun with lettuce, tomato, onion, and vudu sauce) was delicious. Sides of hush puppies and okra were good, if standard. They lady taking my order (owner?) was pleasant. She told me ow much the bill would be before the ran my card. I was a bit surprised by this, and she explained that some people like to know how much beforehand. Now that I thin about it, I believe some trucks do that and some don't. She also said that they cook the food to order, rather than beforehand, so it might take about ten minutes. I believe it actually only took about five, though. Based on some earlier reviews, it seems like they've learned from the past and have been improving their operations as they learn the business.

    The taste was pretty good but the amount of food you get for the price you pay just doesn't add up. ‍

    We love to do pick up or use their food truck! Best Cajun around! If you eat in, the area is very small, but great friendly service.

We were seated right away and the service was top notch. Waitress was always attentive. As for the food, well...... we over-ordered for sure because too many things looked good. I went to the restroom and i casually glanced at others patrons' plates. Some were just downright disgusting... Big ole crab legs hanging off the plate! Shrimp stacked so high it would almost fall off the plate. Huge plates! Pitiful i tell ya! I ordered the crawfish/shrimp ettouffee and it was different than any other i've ever had. My wife reminded me the menu says this was cajun food done St Louis style. My meal was great. Excellent flavor. The wife had some Cod and fried shrimp; again... on an over-filled plate. She had to give me a few pieces of it to help her out. My mother-in-law ordered Coconut shrimp, gave each of us a piece to taste and still had 6 BIG coconut shrimp left that she couldn't eat. If you're math-ing this, the plate had Twelve huge coconut shrimp with fries and some grilled corn. Add to all this a side of hush puppies cause my wife loves them and some cajun batter fried pickles for an appetizer, we had a ton of food. We have found a new place to go to. If you haven't tried this place, you should. I will definitely be back.

We were greeted and seated right away, which was a nice start to the evening. This was our first visit to this particular location, although we've dined a few times over the years at their Creve Coeur restaurant. Our server was also tending bar that evening. He was polite and attentive, although a bit soft-spoken, which made him a little difficult to hear at times in the busy restaurant. We started with drinks--my wife ordered her usual glass of Chardonnay, and I went with a Corona. For dinner, my wife chose the blackened red snapper tacos with green beans and beans and rice, while I ordered the seaside combo with cod and shrimp, served with green beans and potato wedges. Our food arrived in about 25 minutes, and everything tasted very good. My wife especially kept talking about how flavorful the red snapper tacos were. The seafood tasted fresh, and the sides complemented the meals nicely. Overall, both the service and food made for a very enjoyable evening. The only downside was the price, as the dishes are definitely on the higher side. Still, with seafood being shipped in from the coast/gulf, that's somewhat understandable. All in all, it was a good dining experience, and we'd consider coming back again for another date night.

My daughter and I both had the catfish nugget dinner. Our side were yams, greens and macaroni and cheese. Everything was delicious. For most of our visit, real nice jazz was playing in the background until a patron complained (really?!) and so the music got flipped to RAP. We did not appreciate that. For dessert we split the red velvet cake (our second choice because they were out of banana pudding). The cake was dry - perhaps it sat out in the open uncovered. The icing was great tho. All that being said, I will go back to try some of the more traditional creole dishes on the menu. And hopefully they'll have banana pudding.

I started eating in the car because I wanted to taste it while it was fresh. The yams were well seasoned and sweet. My baked chicken was juicy and falling off the bone. It was so savory that I almost did not have any left by the time I got to work. I also enjoyed the green beans and I like that they had potatoes; this adds to the heartiness of the meal. While the macaroni looked wonderful and I could see the seasoning, I was hoping to taste more herbs. I still ate them all, but they were bland. I only did not add my own seasoning because the rest of the meal was seasoned well enough that I did not want to overdo it.
