Cajun Flames

I've Been seeing this spot on social media so I browsed the menu and it caught my eye! It's pretty new so we didn't have a problem getting a seat granted it was around 5pm on a Friday. The resturant is beautiful and in a great area (French Quarter) it took over the space that St. John was recently in. The service was great and the waiter was fast with everything. The food was outstanding! For appetizers we got: Gumbo- This was a big shocker I didn't expect it to be this good packed with flavor. Calamari- fried to perfection the batter was well seasoned and the meat wasn't chewy. Fried Ribs- Very tender, fried and nicely seasoned I just wish it was a better sauce to dip it in!Entrees: Half a rooster- A fried half of chicken breast and wing. To be honest it was well done, had a great taste. It came with a marinara sauce under it initially it threw me off but it complements it well. Shrimp & Grits- The Grits were buttery and salted nicely not too watery. The shrimp were cooked pretty well the sauce made the whole dish! Overall I love what they have going on wishing many blessings to them.

Overall, a cute, new spot with friendly staff and quick service. I wanted a little nibble and was craving oysters. I ordered the Oyster Trio: Included Rockefeller, Pimento Cheese, and Herb & Garlic Butter served with the most delicious crostinis. They were all of decent size and the Garlic Butter & Herb were my favorite of the 3. Pimento Cheese came in second and the Rockefeller was my least favorite but I'm not a big fan of a lot of toppings on my oysters so take my review with a grain of salt as my favorite way of eating oysters are raw, fried, and charbroiled. If you love oysters with toppings this might be just what your taste buds crave.I wasn't planning on drinking but when I saw that they were infusing their vodka for their Bloody Mary's, how could I refuse. Not bad but I prefer a hint of a thicker texture with mine.

Those Rockefeller oyster, octopus and gator tails!!! Absolutely delicious and the most amazing bartender. Go see Hannah at the bar! She is amazing

They don't miss!!! Every time I come to the city I have to get here! I truly wish I could fly this food to my city at least once a week.

Incredible experience! The food was one of the best dishes of our lives, the staff was lovely and the ambiance was great! We tried the Oyster Trio and it knocked our socks off! 11/10 recommend! We've been thinking about them all night and can't wait to come back for more!

Char grilled oysters . Delicious. Charred sprouts were fine. Too much glaze and the peanuts? Added nothing . Then we ordered the steak frites. "Medium rare". The waiter gave me a weird look. What he brought to the table was a crime worthy of a 911 call. I would like to report a murder. Go look up "medium rare strip steak images" then look at this "steak". No. Waiter was extremely puzzled why we were sending it back. You tell me.

Nice ppl and nice food. Good options to pick from. Good drinks . Came here close to closing with a group of 4.

Seafood pasta was incredible. Cool little spot that's easy to walk to in DT NOLA. Friendly staff and good service.

Happened to walk by and the menu caught my eye. Figured I would give it a try because I wanted some Cajun food and I'm so glad I did. The food was amazing! Great location. Very calm atmosphere even with Mardi Gras going on. An amazing place. I got the seafood pasta and the gumbo and it was incredible

Pros: Nice seating. Attentive staff.Cons: Food was too salty, especially the gumbo. Fried frog legs were definitely not fresh. Both the fried dishes of frog legs & gater bites were salty.
