A small, no-frills alleyway bar on Decatur Street serving authentic Cajun food in a casual, lively atmosphere. The Cajun fried chicken, jambalaya, and gumbo are standouts—flavorful and well-executed. Note that it's 21+ only, has limited seating with just a couple of tables, and the staff is known for playful ribbing, though reviewers say it's all in good fun.
