This popular restaurant and favorite of the locals since 1969 had a 1-½ hour waitlist, but was well worth it. While your deciding from the menu, you are brought several large hush puppies with a delectable dip. Not that the dip was needed as the hush puppies had a nice flavor alone.

Cajun seafood is the specialty with a large selection of salads, gumbos, charbroiled items and jambalaya that include a choice of shrimp, crawdads, turtle and more. There are also main entrees of fish, seafood, alligator, and chicken. Each description indicates whether a dish is spicy or not, but none appeared to be a burn your mouth type of hot. Entrees run from $7-20.

Full bar service is available with the local Hurricane drink as a favorite.
