This venue is closed.

The Cajun-Creole comeback gathers steam as the Big Easy hot spot tries to replicate its funky Nawlins self on the considerably less funky Upper West Side—proprietary fried chicken, alligator-sausage cheesecake, and all. Founding chef Jacques Leonardi has been logging serious frequent-flier miles between his two joints, and owner Jim (Brother Jimmy’s BBQ) Goldman sets the proper juke-joint, bon temps tone. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

This fun loving restaurant is the second Jacques-Imo's Cafe opened by chef Jacques Leonardi. The original was opened in New Orleans in 1996. Both serve up exquisite Cajun, Creole and Soul food dishes. Abita beer is available, and the environment is always festive. The shrimp and alligator sausage cheesecake is a personal favorite, but every item on the menu is delicious. This is definitely the best place in NYC to get Louisiana food. http://www.jacquesimoscafe.com/index.htm
