82 nd birthday surprise party excellent all around good night to remember good food and the bagnet s. Pure heaven Will be back for sure

Been to VooDoo Bayou a few times now and it never disappoints. The atmosphere absolutely nails the New Orleans vibes -- lively, fun, and full of character. It's also a great spot for large parties without ever feeling chaotic. Service is always 10/10, always attentive, friendly and prompt, they are so on top of it you never have to ask for a refill. The food is consistently amazing. Highly recommend the BBQ shrimp, the wood fired oysters (the chili butter is seriously addicting), and the Gumbo Ya-Ya. Every dish is packed with flavor and feels authentic. Easily one of my favorite spots whenever I'm craving Creole food. read more

Many will throw the word "cajun" around loosely and hope that your experience with authentic cajun and Louisiana food is minimal so that you'll like their mediocre fare. I really wanted to like this place but it was a swing and a miss. Parking was easy during the Saturday afternoon we visited. On busier occasions, they do offer valet parking. Nearby businesses share parking so if it's a peak time, you may have to walk a little to the door. Not a long wait before we were seated. Spacious with tables and booth seating. There is a bar and televisions here. Our hostess was nice and offered insight into the menu. For the appetizers, we started with oysters Rockefeller, and fried gator tail. It's a red flag when places smother items in a sauce instead of letting it stand on it's own. No complaints on the oysters and the gator tail was given previously frozen vibes. For the entree, I got the shrimp po' boy. The bread was hearty and held onto the six lil shrimp that they felt were enough. When the ratio of shrimp, bread and topping aren't portioned right, you end up with gaps of the flavor when you're eating. What sent me is the shrimp weren't properly deveined. If you took a biology class, you know that black line running along the back is the shrimp's waste system. I'm not eating that. The hostess saw me just sitting there looking at my food and asked if I wanted something different. Hard pass. Even the waffle fries were bad. They weren't piping hot and dried out inside. I made due with the sweet tea which they did well with. The manager came by and offered to remake or replace my meal. I appreciate his efforts but I didn't want anything at that point. The bathrooms were clean. Nice enough people but the kitchen didn't get it right. read more

My hopes were high for this place in finding some good Cajun food. I will say that the service was great and perhaps this is one of those days when the kitchen was off. The décor is pretty good and a reminder of what you would see in some new age vampire movie. I started off with the Black Magic Lemonade that I have to say was very tasty. I think for the most part any drink you order will be pretty good. From what I see the mixologist are on a bit higher level than the average ones you encounter at most bars. It was the highlight of the entire meal along with the great service from the waitress. Now to the main part of the review covering the food. The website advertises that Voodoo Bayou is "where Southern charm meets bold Cajun flair in an atmosphere that's as lively and unforgettable as the cuisine itself. Known as the premier destination for authentic Southern-inspired dining, Voodoo Bayou offers an indulgent experience with every visit." Now is this marketing or just the actual truth. I went with the crawfish and shrimp etouffee. Overall, the etouffee itself was ok but the rice at times was crunchy. Usually when that happens the rice is not cooked in enough liquid and kept at high heat. The consistency was not there and with each bite it was like what I would get. I mixed the rice with the etouffee in the hopes of hydrating the rice a bit more, but it was just hope. My wife took one bite of the shrimp poboy she ordered and it was a no. Going back to the great service it was noticed as the waitress came over and noticed our reaction. We said nothing as she mentioned it looked like my spouse was not enjoying her meal. I told her my order was not bad but not the best. The oysters Rockefeller were a good appetizer and did I mention the drink. The manager came over and asked if she wanted something else and she declined. The meal was removed but I am going back to saying the kitchen could have been off. The booth that was right behind me had issues with their food. What got me is that it was an issue with a burger. A burger. Part of their meal was comped. The food was not reminiscent of Cajun. If I go into a place that says they have a "Cajun flair" and I ask if you serve boudin and the answer is, "What's that?" then I should have known at that point. If you know then you know. Anyplace claiming Cajun better have boudin. Living on the gulf coast and I am not talking of just my experience with food in New Orleans, but Breaux Bridge, St Martinville, New Iberia, and the whole Acadiana area of Louisiana the food at Voodoo Bayou was way off target. For many this could be their first taste in Cajun food and many think after this visit this is how it should be. Bless your heart. This is what results in many people thinking Taco bell is actual Mexican food. Service and the drink were great but overall, this is a one and done with a not so happy visit on my first visit. read more

I wanted to love this place, as the decor and ambiance is incredible. It's dark and moody inside, and the hidden bar off the lobby is so cool to see when the wall flips! That said, we just weren't blown away. Everything was pretty expensive compared to other options nearby, and while none of it was bad, it also wasn't anything to write home about. I visited for a long weekend with my son and his best friend, and this was the most expensive meal we ate, but I think our least favorite. The server was also very inattentive- didn't check in for drink refills, to see how our meal was, etc and we had to wait a very long time for our check at the end of a long night when we were all really tired. I wouldn't come back here for dinner- but if I was with friends, I'd definitely come back to check out that speakeasy! read more

We went to dinner here on a Saturday evening with a group of friends. We did make reservations! I highly recommend reservations. The ambience is dark and vampire like. It felt like a scene from Blade lol I loved it! Red lights along a back wall was very cool. Our server was Chris and he was very attentive and friendly. We all loved our entrees! We started with the deviled eggs and smoked wings. Both phenomenal! Best I've had! Highly recommend both. I had the ya ya for my entree. It was perfectly spicy! They were out of redfish that night but I will return to order it! The jambalaya was fantastic also! I can't wait to go back and try new things! read more

Pretty cool ambiance ! Very moody and dark. there's a restaurant next door that has a pretty awesome entry feature you can observe from your seat in here. Service is pretty good but they do make some mistakes including food allergy issues. Don't expect them to fix the situation though which is disappointing. I liked what I ordered though. read more

This place is definitely interesting. We took the chair ride to the mystery room that I wish somebody would've told me that I can actually just walk through instead of awkwardly sitting on that rotating chair situation. A bunch of us set at the bar and the menus were really sticky and they kind of smelled weird. I ordered a Roku gin and tonic and my friends all ordered specialty drinks. There was definitely a good pour of gin and for that reason I would give this place four and a half stars. The service was kind of lacking as our bartender disappeared. I would go back. read more

Rare gem in Orlando! Very impressed with the quality of food Voodoo Bayou has to offer on top of their amazing decor, 5 stars all the way around! The food was literally to die for, the service was amazing from start to finish and the theming made everything even better! They even have a really cool speakeasy, sit on the two chairs in front near the wall to find out ((: I can't wait to come back and taste more of this delicious menu!! Also have to note these are the BEST beignets I've had in my entire life and they come out fresh and warm! read more

Visited on a Saturday night and it was very busy! Even with a reservation, we waited for a while to be seated. I would recommend coming on a weeknight or snagging an earlier reservation on the weekends. That said, the food here was delicious. The famous cornbread and Redfish were the highlight of the meal. They also have live music, but beware that the place is quite loud. Overall, it's worth the visit - even if just for the cornbread alone! read more

Love the ambiance of the place! Dark and with dim lights give it a more intimate vibe, but it was still lively as they had a live singer on stage. The service was great! Our server made some great recommendations, and the food and drinks definitely delivered! The only downside was, after we ate, we felt like our waiter was rushing us to clear the table. I would totally get it if there was a huge wait in the lobby or all tables were full... but there were plenty of tables available and no wait. Wouldn't let this discourage me from going back. Went to Voodoo Bayou with a friend to catch up, but definitely plan on returning for their happy hour offerings sometime soon. read more

This is my second time reviewing VB (although I've been many times), and quite frankly my most disappointing visit. The service was, as usual, amazing. Summer was our server and she was attentive, personable, and was the best part of the experience. I always get the fried green tomatoes with the pork-belly, and it's typically a knock out. This time the pork was not as crispy/tender as it's been in the past and very chewy. The tomato however was cooked perfectly. Now, this chicken and biscuit....3/10. The platter is literally a 4 piece with a biscuit. I was expecting more of an equal portion of each, but that's not the case here. The biscuit was actually pretty good! Served with maple butter and honey. The chicken, however was dry, overcooked, and had way too much breading. It was seasoned breading, but since it was overcooked, you couldn't enjoy it. As for ambiance, literally everyone was celebrating a birthday, so a bit annoying at times, but for the environment still rather easy with some wonderful live music. And the place is just gorgeous. Overall, this place is still not bad. I mean everyone has a swing and a miss now and again. I would not count them out just yet. But will steer clear of the chicken & biscuit situation in future visits. read more

Went for happy hour and blown away by the menu. Drinks were good! Had one that was sweet and refreshing and another one that was more alcohol forward. We ordered a bunch on th happy hour menu and the ones that stood out to me was the gator nuggets and Rockefeller oysters. So much flavor in the food and the drinks. Will want to visit again when I'm back in Orlando read more

The restaurant was very on theme for the name! Even though the food is Cajun style it's not spicy at all. The service was great and the food was tasty. I had the brick oven roasted chicken and it was very flavorful. I'd recommend for a girls night, date night, or birthday dinner. The secret room for Roku hula was really nice as well with a different menu of Asian cuisine. read more

As soon as I walked in I couldn't stop gawking at everything. The spooky fun ambiance, the lighting sets a mood, the velvet booths, cheetah print chairs, the decorations. I truly fell in love. Our server was the sweetest thing and attentive. We came for brunch BUT I wasn't really impressed with it. Food was lukewarm but I did like the bread that came with my dish. The banana bread pudding sounded so delicious BUT it was rather grainy and the cookies were unbreakable... The beignets were warm and fabulous, so order those!! I got bottomless mimosas and those were nice with juices such as-- pineapple, mango, peach, OJ or strawberry I don't want to never not come back. Because I've heard great things about their dinner AND they got a really cool speakeasy that's Asian fusion read more

Voodoo Bayou is definitely a vibe. Went for Oyster Wednesday to celebrate a friend's solar return, and honestly got stuck on the oysters because they were that good -- fresh, flavorful, and I couldn't get enough. The service was great -- friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. I also tried the Vicki Vallencourt (Strawberries, Lemon & Honey) mocktail, which was super delightful and refreshing. There was live music too -- the guy playing was ok, but the oysters and the whole bayou vibe carried the night. Definitely coming back! read more

Another great meal at Voodoo Bayou. I've been shocked that the last few times we came here for weekend brunch we were able to be seated immediately without a reservation. The Cajun food is amazing and they gave me plenty of champagne for my bottomless mimosas this time. We will miss this restaurant when we move. read more

Interaction at the hostess stand was exceptional. Checked in for my dinner reservation for 2 people. It was not a problem for staff as I waited for my guest to arrive late. The hostess wasn't sure about a question I posed. Before we were seated she contacted a manager and got back to. The table service was also great. Nice job Kelcy. We enjoyed the BBQ shrimp and the flavorful sauce it was cooked in. The red fish fillet was cooked to perfection in their pizza oven. It doesn't really matter to me anymore but 2 appetizers, 1 entree and 1 draft beer with tax and tip was $109. read more

Took my work team out to Voodoo Bayou while attending a conference in Orlando recently. I've been here a few times before and the food never disappoints. We ordered a variety of appetizers for the table. The BBQ Shrimp is always one of my go-to favorites, large shrimp served in a tasty New Orleans BBQ sauce with baguette to soak up every bit of that sauce. The Yellowtail Crudo was super fresh and delicious, and you really can't go wrong with any of the oysters. Their drinks are always excellent. For my entree this time I tried the Brick Oven Roasted Chicken based on our waitress's recommendation. I wanted something different than what I've had before, and it was incredible. The chicken was succulent, marinated and served in a bourbon jus and herb butter, complemented with rice and some great smoky collard greens. We finished with the beignets for dessert, and their description of little sweet clouds from heaven isn't a lie. A great meal, great service, a unique and awesome vibe, and even better company. read more

My friend and I decided to try Voodoo Bayou for the first time and went during lunchtime. We made reservations ahead of time, which wasn't really necessary since it wasn't busy but that worked out great for us. When we walked in, the restaurant was very dark. I've been to my fair share of New Orleans-style restaurants around Orlando, and while I understand they're going for a voodoo/gothic theme, the vibes just weren't quite there for us. The host greeted us warmly and escorted us to our table, which was appreciated. Our waiter, Bryce, was friendly and did a great job walking us through the menu. They offer a lunch special for $15.99, which is a nice deal. I ordered the Black Magic lemonade and waters for the table. For appetizers, I had the deviled eggs, and my friend ordered the gator tails both were good and a solid way to start the meal. For entrées, I ordered the Creole mustard salmon. Unfortunately, it was very bland. Looking at the plate, I was excited to dive in, but the flavor just didn't deliver. My friend ordered the lunch special, which included a cup of gumbo and a half shrimp po'boy, and she said hers was good. We ended the meal with banana pudding to share. It wasn't your typical banana pudding it tasted more like vanilla ice cream, very heavy on the vanilla bean, with a few slices of banana and cookies mixed in. Definitely different. Overall, it was a unique experience, but not one that fully hit the mark for us. Some highlights, some misses, and interesting to try at least once. read more

The atmosphere of Voodoo Bayou is magnificent! From the theming and decor, to the wait staff and menus, it is all very cool and fun. Where things drop off a bit is in the actual execution of the meals and drinks. Don't get me wrong, this is one of the top tier cocktail bars in town and you WILL have a good time. However the overpricing and weird "membership" push is pretty off putting. We enjoyed our skull shaped monkey bread, but it was a bit dry, our cocktails came out fast and were tasty, just nothing special, and if it wasn't for our fantastic company I'd probably have skipped any other food from there. As it was the menu is good, though if you want flavorful and authentic creole cuisine you can definitely do better in town (Tibby's is a great start!) All in all, fun for a cocktail meet up and an app or two, but don't expect anything mind blowing and you certainly aren't going to impress a foodie. read more

My husband and I are big foodies and even travel to go try new restaurants. Our lunch at Voodoo Bayou yesterday was one of the best meals we have ever had. First off from the door handles to the entrance, the first impression was great. I loved the vibe and totally felt like a vampire restaurant which was cool. They also play great music and everyone form the host, the bartender, our waitress and the manager were all pleasant and attentive. Jennifer was absolutely spectacular. We started off with half a dozen raw oysters, a cup of gumbo and the cornbread. The oysters came with all the fixings and honestly I could have probably eaten a dozen myself... cornbread is a must with the yummy honey butter and my hubby said the gumbo was delicious. For our entrees hubby got the crawfish and shrimp etouffee which we used to drive 3 hours from Nashville to Atlanta just to go to Louisiana Bistro for their etouffee and the one here at Voodoo Bayou is even better! I got the prime rib only which usually I don't like when it's sliced but it was also absolutely delicious with a side of horseradish aioli and au jus to dip. For dessert Jennifer recommended the Holy Sundae which is easily one of the best desserts we have ever had. We've already recommended to 3 of our friends and will probably become regulars! Thank you for the amazing experience! read more

Nope wouldn't do again. Now we ended up here after being in Orlando to celebrate a friend's birthday. She was looking for some place new for us to try. It was three couples. Now when you walk in the place decor is beautiful and inviting. Service is wonderful and everyone is friendly. Not so much for the food. The census from everyone was the same, not so tasty and lacking of flavor. I ordered the Jambalaya. Now I have had Jambalaya many many times and Creole food is one of my favorite dishes. I have never tasted Jambalaya like this, and unfortunately I don't mean that in a good way. The rice had a very strange gritty taste to it, the whole dish lacked of flavor and seasoning. I ordered a side of garlic bread sticks and they sent them out burnt! Hubby ordered the fried chicken and red beans and rice. Chicken looked like the grease was a pass needing to change and also lacked any good flavor. The red beans and rice was the only dish which had some flavor to it. Our friends ordered chicken, collards and rice. The look on there face said it all; disappointed. The menu is ale cart and very pricey. What a disappointment. The two stars are for the nice decor and sitting area for pictures as you walk in. read more

Voodoo Bayou - Cajun fundamentals, delivered with discipline and pleasure. I'm very familiar with Cajun food in the Texas-Louisiana corridor, where Cajun and Creole flavors are everyday life, not a theme. That familiarity raises the bar: once this food travels too far from home, spice often gets timid, rice collapses, and everything turns into a polite imitation. Voodoo Bayou didn't do that. This visit was takeout because time was tight - no sitting down for cocktails, no lingering at the bar. That matters, because takeout is a stress test for Cajun food: heat loss, steam, soggy crusts, broken texture. If a kitchen still delivers pleasure through that window, it usually means their time-and-temperature discipline is real. Louisiana-style "BBQ Shrimp" (the good kind of surprise) I ordered the BBQ shrimp without overthinking the menu and immediately understood what they meant: this is the Louisiana / New Orleans-style preparation - shrimp in a buttery, garlicky, spice-driven sauce. Not grilled, not sweet, not bottled "BBQ." It's rich, savory, and unapologetically umami, while the shrimp's sweetness still comes through. It's the kind of dish where you tear bread, drag it through the sauce, and stop talking for a minute. The bread: slightly charred, aromatic, crisp (and functional) Yes, the bread is a bit charred - and it's exactly right. That char adds aroma and a faint bitterness that sharpens the richness of the sauce. More importantly, the bread stays crisp and sturdy enough to mop up every last drop without turning to mush. That's a kitchen thinking about function, not just appearance. Jambalaya: grain integrity = competence The jambalaya is savory and comforting without being heavy. The rice stays distinct - each grain seasoned, not broken down. Cajun rice shouldn't eat like paste. Here, it doesn't. Texture is the quiet signal that the kitchen knows what it's doing. Fried alligator tail (two boxes) - still crisp, still juicy I ordered two boxes of fried alligator tail and ate them roughly 30 minutes later. The exterior stayed crisp, and the meat inside stayed tender and juicy - no rubber, no dryness, no "you need sauce to rescue it." The seasoning is confident enough that you can eat it straight and be happy. IPA pairing (it works) I paired the meal with an IPA, and it was the right move. Cajun spice + butter + savory depth needs bitterness and carbonation to cut richness and reset the palate. Each sip made the next bite feel fresh again. Takeout presentation (yes, it matters) One more detail: even packed to-go, the food looked organized and intentional. Nothing smashed, nothing swimming unnecessarily in sauce. It was genuinely satisfying to open the containers-presentation still mattered, even outside the dining room. Service was friendly, recommendations were on point, and nothing felt forced. This time I evaluated Voodoo Bayou under takeout constraints - and it still delivered warmth, structure, and real Cajun pleasure. Next time, I'm eating inside, drinking properly, and working through the menu at the right pace. If this were on the Gulf Coast, no one would question its legitimacy. Only 5 is audit-worthy. -- Dr. C read more

It was my first time dining here, and I honestly wish I had come sooner! The atmosphere of the restaurant is simply stunning dark, elegant, and full of history. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel so welcome with their friendly and warm attitude. Although we didn't have a reservation, they kindly accommodated us since it was still early on a Saturday. Our waitress "SUMMER" was absolutely fantastic friendly, attentive, and really took the time to listen to us. As it was our first visit, she also offered some great suggestions, and I'm so glad we took her advice. The drinks and food were absolutely delicious, making the whole experience even more memorable.

The ambiance here was really fun - dark, moody, fun decor, and I noticed the speakeasy entrance on the way out. We unfortunately dined too early to see the live music for the night, which started at 9pm, but the vibe was fun regardless. I enjoyed the lavender love spell cocktail - I'm a sucker for Empress gin, and they did a great job balancing this cocktail. My boyfriend enjoyed all the cocktails he tried, with a highlight being the voodoo child - very fun and creative! We shared the cornbread as an app along with some others for the table - I loved the cornbread and whipped butter combo, and the deviled eggs were loved by the table. I ended up ordering the gumbo as my entree, and it was a great move - the portion was generous, and it feels like a staple here. The jambalaya was less of a hit - it was a little overly seasoned for my boyfriend's taste, and others in the group agreed. While some folks were hit or miss on their mains, I really enjoyed mine! I think I'd come again for the speakeasy and entertainment next time, with the cocktails as my focus. Yum! read more

Yasss...so glad I decided to give Voodoo Bayou a try. By the name, you guessed it, it's Louisiana inspired food. Not super familiar with the cuisine but it was a great nonetheless. The place looks kinda creepy, in keeping with the theme. It was well-subscribed the night I went, so many parties waiting to be seated so I figured it's either good or overhyped. We tried the Redfish and Jambalaya. For the Redfish entree, the scales in the dish are intentional; keeps the grill from drying out the fish. I had to ask after my 3rd bite. lol. It was tasty though. The jambalaya was pretty good as well! I had the Blackberry lemonade mocktail (not pictured) but it was well-presented. There is a speakeasy attached, I went inside but didn't experience since I had my child with me so next time. read more

I came back for their happy hour to help celebrate my mom's birthday. Happy hour is only if you sit at the bar. Ordered the black magic lemonade and it wasn't that bad. Not truly my cup of tea so I wouldn't order it again. I think the burning of the rosemary is what threw it off for me. I had their wings again cause they are always cooked perfectly. This time I tried all their oysters. Raw is good but I feel like they were small. Rockefeller and fried were both good. I loved the remoulade sauce that comes with the fried oysters. Now the true star is the chili butter oysters. The oysters they picked for those seemed bigger than the raw! The chili had a great kick to it. I will go back just for those!! read more

Had a great first visit to Voodoo Bayou! Met up with a friend for happy hour and were lucky to have Luis as our server--he was amazing from the start and incredibly attentive throughout.

Voodoo Bayou is one of my favorite local spots in Orlando. The food and drinks are always excellent and they have some great happy hour specials. And what a vibe this place is! The decor is really cool and makes for a great place to grab a spot at the bar or a table with a larger group. If you like southern/cajun food, this is one of the best places around. Some of my favorites include their wings, gumbo, and filet, but you can't go wrong with anything here. They also have delightful cocktails and an impressive whiskey/bourbon selection. Don't sleep on dessert here either, the beignets are amazing and the bread pudding is just a tiny step below that. The servers are always friendly and food comes out quick. Depending on when you go, sometimes they will have live music, and they book great performers, but it can be quite loud; just something to keep in mind if you're planning to go on a weekend night. And just on the other side of the wall is a speakeasy with a completely different food and drink menu! That place is great as well and definitely worth checking out. read more

First time visiting and it was a solid experience! 4/5 stars because the speak easy was closed and toward the end the service slowed. Okay- now that the lowlights are out of the way... I love this place! The moody decor, the crafty cocktails, the delicious and generously portioned food! I love an espresso martini and their is so deliciously strong with a little beignet for some sweetness. I'm still thinking about it! The lavender cocktail was so pretty that I would order that next time. The cornbread and butter- so delicious. The deviled egg and Mac and cheese apps were tasty but not my favorite. I got the jambalaya for my entree and let me say. Chefs kiss! A hint of spice, packed with flavors and such a generous portion that I had plenty to take home. The server was so sweet and patient with our larger party. Most of the service was quick and she was the sweetest with making our birthday girl feel special! There's plenty of parking in the lot though they block some off for valet parking. Trust that I will be back! read more

Had a blast hanging out at Voodoo Bayou! Live music, tasty drinks and delicious food! Its a bit pricey especially for the signature cocktails so be prepared to spend at least 50-70 dollars per person if you get an appetizer entree and a drink. I think pork belly should be on everything=) especially fried green tomatoes! Just the right amoint of breading and the pork belly put it over the top. Definitely enough for 4 people to share. The BBQ Shrimp and the bread for dipping is a mist. If you like garlic heavy sauce... this one is for you. My ribeye had some cajun butter and was perfectly seasone so no need for any additional salt or pepper. Cooked perfectly medium rare. I accompanied it with the scalloped potato that was thinky sloced and layered expertly! Creamy and smooth with each bite. Last but not least was the chicken and waffles. Chicken was super moist and fried to perfection. Nit ine dry bite. This place and the environment is really fun and the staff are really helpful and kind. Lots of places to take pics with all of the beatiful decor. Definitely a must try experience make sire you make reservations as it does get packed especially on the weekends! read more

I visited the Voodoo Bayou based on the recommendation of a bartender we had met earlier in the day. Sadly, we wish we would've skipped the visit to this restaurant. Entering into the restaurant, it was dark with a live music act going on. We were sat down after a while, although we had reservations. We also made reservations at the speakeasy on the property called Roka Hula. Once we were sat down, our server came to greet us and we asked her a question about the menu for Voodoo Bayou & Roka Hula, sadly she gave us the wrong answer which we discover later (Roka Hula stops food service at 12am). Voodoo Bayou is unique for sure, but the price of the food and the quality of the food is not something I would return for. We ordered the smoked wings, which had a very strange Blue Cheese dipping sauce. The BBQ Shrimp was pretty good and the deviled eggs were not very flavorful as well. The best thing for me was the charred Broccolini & Cauliflower, which was delicious. As someone who visited New Orleans often, I was left unsatisfied by the menu and food. read more

Super cute place with a fun vibe and love the live music. We started with the biscuits and my bf had oysters. The biscuits were great and huge honey butter is a stand out. I really wanted to try the fried chicken but couldn't since marinated in a fish substance and I'm allergic Seems odd to do that on a chicken dish. Server had to ask to be sure also. I wound up ordering the Cajun carbonara. Flavor great but the meat should be more prominent and the egg was a bit overdone. My bf had jambalaya and loved it. My Elvira cocktail was good but she didn't ask if I wanted the cup and I kinda did. After word we had a reso at roka hula so we went there for a drink. Overall good would go back for apps read more

Decided on a Sunday brunch after visiting the Yelp event down the street. My first time here and it was super cool. Entrance is ghoulishly cool and a whole vibe ! For starters , enjoyed the BBQ shrimp which was absolutely amazing and the sauce alone is 5 stars and could be sold in bottles . I ordered the bacon Benedict because hello who can resist pork belly. It was good but the biscuits to pork belly ratio were not even so I ended up with more bread left over. Ended with beignets that were as big as my hand and incredible. Service was good and quick as well. I felt like I was having brunch in the Addams family house as I'm a huge Wednesday fan lol. I'd come back ! read more
