Zydeco's

"took my wife here for dinner on Thursday. We have eaten here before and was expecting a good meal. Our waitress was excellent!!! Food was very below standards. Wifes Shrimp Poboy sandwich was soggy and taste less. We really was looking forward to some good gumbo!! It had no flavor. We looked around for sale & pepper plus any other spices to doctor it up. My meal was their special? Shrimp in a spicy sauce? It tasted like ketchup and water. Waitress noticed I was not eating it and asked if I thought it tasted like ketchup?? She had it taken off our bill. AGAIN the waitress was excellent. FOOD was terrible. We have no desire to go back."

"We've visited New Orleans many times in our life and every time we've been to Zydeco's..it is like stepping into a teleportation device straight to Louisiana! The food and drinks are artisan level delicious, beautiful presentation, the atmosphere is of the deep south and the staff/owner is so kind. We were there tonight for our wedding dinner and plan to do so every anniversary ahead. Thank you guys so much for the bread pudding dessert❤️"

"Such a cool place. Everytime I go I see something new. Cajun food and atmosphere. The alligator is good. My kids love the bead necklaces that are all over the place. Wish I lived closed so we could go more often."

"I am perfectly willing to make a 400 mile round trip drive to the middle of nowhere to visit and eat this food. Every single thing here is amazing. The trip is a pilgrimage for me and I have converted others to my Cajun religion"

"I have a greatest LSU fan at home. He loves everything about Louisiana and looks for authentic food when we go to a new place. We drove from Indianapolis just for this place. Nice entertaining and delightful atmosphere. They represent New Orleans style eccentric art with details of Louisiana. Food was freshly made but tasted subpar. Chicken tenders were decent but roasted potatoes were bitter. For the side, I opted for Cajun fries but was served roasted potatoes instead. I did not complain because I know it will take another 30 minutes for that. Garlic soup and creole house sauce was good. Half and half (gumbo & jambalaya) was just okay. The sazerac was awesome and authentic. Honestly we were disappointed. Maybe our expectations were too high expecting authentic food here. It was Outlandishly pricey for the quality of the food served. Super slow service. We waited nearly an hour to get a table and another one hour to get food to our table. They were very busy and under staffed. We loved the ambience and hubby reminisced LSU memories. Wish food tasted little better."
