Horray!! He is still open

by Ted Houseman

Only the diner part in front remains open. The wonderful buffet is closed. But Chef Thomas Armstrong is still there. Best fried chicken anywhere. Please support this excellent chef before he is forced to close. Top notch cajun and soul food!!!

  • Pros: Delicious cajun and soul food
  • Cons: Buffet now closed. Diner open Thurs - Sunday only

This place is amazing

by joe_food

The restaurant itself is not too pretty, but the people, the food, the atmosphere, it makes the restaurant itself seem like the nicest place on earth. take that disneyland. the owner contributes to non profits and participates in community service, and as far as i can tell his own recipes. 5 stars. i dont care if you're missing a bar stool, 5 stars.

This tiny Cajun cafe serves spicy Southern food at the best buffet in town.

by Contributor

The Scene
The Rajun Cajun has no more than a couple of tables and a row of chairs, but somehow they fit in a live gospel choir during Sunday brunch. Use the cafe's small size to your advantage and sneak a peak at what the people next to you are eating.

The Food
Gumbo, jambalaya and barbecue ribs. Fried alligator, fried chicken and sweet potatoes in syrupy gravy. Just when you think it can't get any better than this, out come the crawfish. Savor a taste of the South with rich, stewlike etouffee. Customers are devoted to the all-you-can-eat buffet, where people "get together for lunch every Friday like church for a $10 offering," according to one veteran. Getting up from the table can be tricky, so try to fill your plate in one trip.

Great Food

by dawnlogan

So, it doesn't look like the Ritz, who cares when the food's this good? Don't be so damn snooty! Come in, sit down and have some good home-style cooking. It's well-worth overlooking the decor.

  • Pros: Food, Inexpensive, Down-to-earth
  • Cons: Too small

Real Southern homemade food

by Braids

The buffet is limited to items that this restaurant produces with excellence. Whether you love crayfish, fried chicken, fried fish, southern potato salad or dirty rice, you will not be disappointed. Try the peach cobbler for dessert. Service is speedy.

  • Pros: Reasonable price, Real Southern food, Does catering too
  • Cons: Parking, limited menu

SMOKIN'

by thedutch4

The Rajun Cajun buffets are unbelievable for the price. Everything is fresh, hot, and delicious and plentiful.

It can sometimes be overwhelming with all the choices on the buffet.

In a word, it's SMOKIN'!
