Profile

You won’t believe you’re still in NoHo when you step into this lively little roadhouse with the blasting jukebox. You’ll likely wait for a table, but you won’t wait for a menu, since the specials are printed on a blackboard and change daily. Creole favorites like blackened catfish, gumbo and assorted po-boy sandwiches will sate your hankering for the bayou, but the spicy and fragrant crawfish boil (which includes a shelling demonstration from your server) is the true test for Cajun mavens. Be sure to order the fresh, honey-topped jalapeno corn bread and red-hot Bloody Marys with everything. — Sandra Nygaard
