Cajun Street - Kuykendahl

We ventured to Cajun Street today on Kuykendahl and it was really tasty. We both had their pasta with different proteins and then added Cobb salad. The bread was also great which is a huge thing for me. She said they hadn't been open long so just another option for a fast casual Cajun to try. I don't think you'll be disappointed. Staff, might have been owner honestly, was super friendly and attentive. Decor is pretty awesome too.

The latest location for this local chain opened across from the Kroger at Rayford and Kuykendahl. Normally I'd give a new place past its grand opening to settle in, but I was in the mood for Cajun food and wanted to show some support. We got the fried chicken tenders with seasoned fries, the shrimp etouffee, some beans and rice, and the Bourbon Street pecan pie. Washed down with a drink from the fountain.It's difficult to get white meat chicken tenders to actually come out tender, and they didn't quite succeed here. The tenders were on the dry side. The fries were ok, ordinary fries with a little seasoning (like Tony Chachere's but I don't know if that's what they use).The shrimp etouffee was very good, and an interesting presentation. You get seven whole shrimp in the etouffee sauce with a cake of perfectly done white rice in the middle, so you can dredge the rice through the sauce with your fork. The sauce was salted exactly right and had great depth of flavor. The shrimp were done nicely with good snap. It's a great dish, easy to recommend.The beans and rice was good--had very good flavor but the beans were a bit broken. The pecan pie was a good sweet version--tasty pecan filling with a very firm, sugary crust.The interior is plain but clean and inviting. The bathrooms were clean and ready. Service is friendly and enthusiastic. They did not have barbecue when I came in, so the full experience is not quite there but they were ready with what they had. I'm rounding up to 4 stars. I would skip the fried stuff and go for the Cajun dishes.

Nice clean place with very friendly staff. They were quick to take our order. Free refills on drinks. Wasn't sure on what to expect from the food but it was delicious. Their grilled fish and shrimp had just the right amount of seasoning. The lemon pepper wings were a hit with the kids. Boudin balls hit the spot just right. This is a definite hit and will definitely return.
