Mr Cajun's Daiquiri & Cajun Food

If you're looking for a standout dining experience, look no further! This place felt like it was made just for me. First off, it's impeccably clean and the decor is on point, creating a fantastic atmosphere with great music. Plenty of parking , you really can't miss it. One way in and out which is no biggie. The customer service is top-notch--shoutout to Joelynn for swiftly fixing my online order mistake (Fryday ) she knows lol The food? Absolutely fresh! The catfish was perfectly seasoned, and the Cajun corn was so good I could eat it alone. The prices reflect the quality, especially for those generous fillets. You cannot have fish without the pepper lol. And don't skip the Kool-Aid--definitely a 10/10. I can't wait to return and explore more of the menu, especially the desserts. Huge thanks to the staff for making my day! Highly recommend this gem, and I'll be back soon!

The atmosphere was very welcoming. The women at the counter was helpful with advising on the best things on the menu. I got the All American daiquiri and it was delicious. Only complaint would be it was thick but very flavorful. I got the 2 pc catfish with 6 pc shrimp. Shrimp was fried to a golden brown perfection. The fish was fried golden brown; it could've used more season imo but had a good lemon taste. Fries weren't seasoned at all. Tartar sauce was straight nothing too crave for. Remoulade sauce was actually good. Overall food was a 8.7/10.

Here is my very HONEST review of the newest Mr. C location...Mr. Cajuns Pleasant Grove location sits on the corner of St. Augustine and Lake June in Dallas. Pulling up the the parking lot, it was squishy. There were only 3 available spots out of let's say 20+. We assumed that meant it was packed. The exterior looked huge and promising. Upon entry the aesthetic looks identical to the forney location. Same grey walls with graffiti Nola design. However the interior is WAY smaller than forney. Seating can only hold up to 20 customers. Not including the exterior seating which is made up of the metal frame tables with chairs. I will not be using that till the temperature reach's below 80 degrees. The menu although pretty much the same has a limited daiquiri menu. Rather than having up to 10 flavor options, there are ONLY 9. Prices for the 1 lb Cajun shrimp boil increased from $19.99 to $24.99 and the catfish filets must come in a combo. True this could be due to inflation or the simple fact of location. Overall the taste is exactly what I expected having been a frequent customer for forney. However the juice in the boil was just that juice. The consistency was more watery and the boil seemed slightly overcooked. But the catfish had the right amount of crunch and seasoning. It was perfect. Definitely would rather order ahead and pick up than be in the restaurant. Or just drive the 15+ minutes to forney. Overall pretty good and a 3.5 star rating for me.

Mr Cajuns appeared in my IG feed today and had decent reviews. I googled the menu and immediately saw that a 6 pc fried catfish with fries was $40. What??? Now you gotta stand on business if you're bold enough to charge those kinds of prices for fried catfish in Pleasant Grove. So I definitely planned to try it. And I definitely planned to write a DETAILED review. On Wednesday, July 3rd, I arrived at the Pleasant Grove location on Lake June Rd at approximately 12:15pm. There was ample parking, however, there was only one way in and out which I could see being an issue whenever traffic picks up. There's a cute patio out front and the grounds were clean. Upon entering, I was greeted by 3 beautiful ladies who made me feel welcomed and appreciated. Their customer service was excellent. No name tags were worn, otherwise I would thank them here individually. The inside is clean and sporty, with tv screens and a small sitting area. I discussed the menu with the young lady helping me and I ended up ordering the 2 pc fish and shrimp basket, a 6pc lemon pepper wing basket, and a banana pudding. They don't have hushpuppies which was a HUGE disappointment. My order was delivered promptly and with a smile in about 10 minutes. I drove back home to eat. Now.... The food looked amazing. It looked season. It looked flavorful. It looked DONE, as in cooked all the way through. Let's review each item shall we... *Please Refer to the pics* Catfish: Extremely fishy taste and smell. Clearly needed to be cooked longer. It had a pink tinge of color to it and it was watery and soft. I ate the ends of one filet that was cooked and it tasted very fishy. And I do not like fishy tasting fish. There was no flavor other than that and grease. Pros: nice sized filet.Fried Shrimp: I can't review it because they forgot to put it in my order. And yes, I paid for it. (See receipt) Also, the menu says $23.99 but I was charged $26.99. 6pc Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings:3 out of 6 were cooked through. The other 3 were pink inside. (See pic) They seemed baked instead of fried, which is cool if you like em that way. But if you prefer more of a Wing Stop dry season type of lemon pepper, you won't like them. Pros: Lemon flavor was great. Fries: Basic. They put the fish on top of the fries which is the usual protocol at these types of restaurants, however, the fishy taste from the fish soaked into the fries. Did not taste good at all. "Complimentary" slice of white bread:Dear Mr Cajun: You are charging $40 for 6 pieces of undercooked, under seasoned Catfish. White bread is a slap in the face to the consumer. You're either a BMW or a Prius. You can't be both.Tartar sauce and Ranch: Store Bought. Again, with these high prices everything you serve should be FROM SCRATCH. No exceptions. Banana Pudding with no bananas: Not bad. The only thing I actually enjoyed. In summary, Mr Cajun was a whole lot of disappointment for the items I selected. To play devil's advocate, maybe fried catfish, wings, and fries aren't their specialty. The food looks great on social media but doesn't live up to the hype. Again, to be fair, I didn't try other menu items such as the seafood boils or oxtails, so those could be better. But I certainly won't order the very overpriced undercooked under seasoned catfish or wings again. On a positive note, they do have a nice variety of daiquiris to choose from so if you're into that, definitely give it a go. If I'm in the area and I want a daiquiri, I might try one myself. That could actually be the real superstar of the whole menu. But it definitely isn't the catfish or wings.

a mix of disappointed and dissatisfied. we visited this new location on their second day of opening. a very hefty total of a $135 plus a $10 tip upon purchase; a mix of daiquiris which were tasty, chamoy and tajin soaked "gooshers" (gushers) that unfortunately were literal mush assuming because they have sat too too long (we were excited about those and after one taste had to throw them away. thankfully they were only $1.50.......) , 3 catfish plates one with shrimp, and an oxtail plate. daiquiri : voodoo and lemonade are a good mix. catfish/shrimp : i don't believe the grease was old because the fries didn't have the same taste as they had a great crunch and decent flavor for a fry, however the catfish absolutely tasted burnt. the color of the fish itself was a bit darker than I am typically served at my usual place I go to in garland. also heavy on the salt. there was extra fish in our boxes and it's unknown as to why, maybe to make up for the mistakes if they were aware. shrimp are small and have a very thin batter. sides : we were given "butt-bread" in all 3 boxes of our food..... really? the end of the bread is okay to eat at home but not to be served at a restaurant, especially in all 3 plates. i can understand there being one end piece but to have this in all 3 boxes it gives the indication there is a lack of care in quality/appearance here. my mother asked for only rice with her oxtails and was still given corn and potatoes that had brown spots on the inside.... corn had flavor of shrimp/crab like it was pulled straight from a seafood boil but maybe that's the sauce. oxtails : my mother says the oxtails were good, just expensive. restaurant itself : clean, bright, and nice crystal chandelier-like lighting on the ceiling. in conclusion this was unfortunately not the best first impression for us from mr. cajuns, but there is always room for improvement and growth. congratulations on your new opening.

We decided to try the newer location on Lake June. We arrived Saturday afternoon. We ordered the Seafront boil and Oxtail dinner. The restaurant was smaller than expected. The cashier and wait staff were friendly and attentive. My biggest issue was the wait time for our food. There was a 45 min wait from the time we ordered to the time our food was served.

The food was really great the service was amazing and helpful.. The restaurant it self was nice and welcoming. They had a good selection of drinks and food.

Everything was great. The service! The food! Gonna go back on the weekend to check out the vibe but the ambiance was nice even on a week day.. they had good music even without a DJ and they catered to my overall needs.

i love mr.cajun downnn ; i get the seafood boil with 1 crab cluster no sausages replaced with a boiled egg & add ramen noodles and a daiquiri & they dont disappoint. ive had it on several occasions both at forney location & pg location. good vibes , idk how he be at two places at once but mr.cajun is always there when i come in , he & his staff have great hospitality. im currently waiting on the oysters & crawfish to come to the table so i can see if he really from louisiana. lol

Great customer service, and the food is cooked upon ordering. Be patient because it is worth the wait. You will taste New Orleans in every bite. The food is flavorful and not over seasoned. We have a great experience every time. The daiquiris are on point as well. Enjoy Bon Apetit!
