Description
Wooden beams and brick walls add to the vintage decor at Hard Shell Cafe. This Soulard restaurant features Creole and Cajun fare, with catfish a popular specialty. Try hush puppies with your catfish for the complete Cajun treatment. Fried shrimp is another big seller, along with the 'poorboy' sandwich and a variety of large and small salads. The menu also offers pizza and burgers. An enclosed courtyard in the rear provides the ambience of outdoor dining, without the weather.
