Southern Restaurants near Grimes

“My husband and I went to the drive thru. As always, the chicken was delicious. I tried the salad for the first time.. It was ok but way too much. I guess it should be big for $10.50. Also they used leafy greens instead of iceburg or romaine lettuce. It made me think of the weeds that grow in my backyard. I will stick with the chicken from now on.The service was excellent, very friendly staff.“

“Cajun Belle makes me glad I live right down the street. I had the shrimp po boy and wow! It is delicious. I also had a cream cheese kolache. I had never had one before and it did not disappoint. I can’t wait to go back and try all the different flavors! Thank you Zach for being so hospitable!“

“TL;DR: you will have a good time here.Overall the service and atmosphere are fantastic. The owner, Mike, happened to be in the restaurant and came over to our table to check on us a few times. Personable guy, funny.The food was in a weird spot for me. The sides were dynamite (creole mashed potatoes & and corn bread), the mains that I had (ribs, brisket) were just ok.The rub from the ribs was very smoke forward (my hands and clothes actually smelled of smoke for a while after we left) but I didn't get much in the way of flavor past the smoke. The rib meat was fine, if not a little bland.The brisket was less smoke forward but still that was the primary flavor I got. Additionally the brisket was served in one big hunk and it had the taste and feel of a pot roast moreso than what I expect brisket to taste like.The homemade sauces did a lot to impart flavor though. I would go back and try some of the other offerings though.“

“It's always fun going to Cracker Barrel. I had fried chicken, chessy potatoe caerole, and cooked apples with fesh hot bisquits. Everything was so good. Our waitress was the best and went overboard to make sure everything was perfect.“
