“This location is open 24 hours. The staff was friendly. I stopped in on an early morning for a breakfast sandwich on flat bread. Everything was made fresh as ordered.”

“Went on a Friday night. The place was full. Even with a full house, service was quick and very good. Server was very courteous. Food was well prepared and tasted amazing. Would definitely recommend.”

“Mid afternoon, missed lunch, hungry and just wanted good food. This restaurant was outstanding, we had planned on just ordering shrimp on a bun and fish and shrimp in a box. The waitress suggested we try their gumbo. Everything was very good, but the gumbo was spectacular, perfect consistency, smooth clean flavors. Non of the gumbos I’ve had thus far in LA even came close. It is a must try. Sincerely”

“Wow!! From a Texas boy this place is the spot dude!!! Gumbo full of flavor, the fish was super tasty and juicy! The shrimp just how I like Em’ not over cooked! Highly recommend!! I love Louisiana food!”

“We visited Spuddy for his Cajun Cooking experience (personal cooking lesson). We made Andouille Sausage from scratch. We cooked Jambalaya, Gumbo and Smothered Okra. The food was amazing and the experience with Spuddy was unforgettable. This is a great thing do do when you visit the plantations.”

“I ate a 3-day old cheeseburger that had been bought for my granddaughter. The spices were excellent and the patty itself was “large”. Overall excellent sandwich.”

“Good food, pleasant setting, good prices, but nothing to write home about. The day I went they had run out of hot sausage and other menu items so I settled for a roast beef poboy. It was okay. I'll try it again next time I'm in the neighborhood and see if my opinion changes.”

“The oak alley plantation may be the best plantation I’ve ever been too I’ve seen many don’t take this as racism please but because I’m a historian I met a young fellow reenactment of Romeo and Juliet with their cousins I fell in love with the place but the staff didn’t a few rude people but comes with the house as many acted like they were living in 1899 the house we went at night from the French American city nearby Denis or something my friend lenny was hurled insults by locals unfortunately we came to find the house burning but when we came back 3months later the house was rebuilt hurray the local law enforcement blockaded our entry and forced us out stupid gray haired people but the games of cribbage and moonshine handed around that I stole a bit much for the tickets were quiet expensive authentic moonshine and chicken steaks given out although I fear flies had tainted my meat ? I love the place and would come back but the staff need to be kinder to fellows from the north as they called me a Yankee next time I won’t bring my son though as some old white trash hag attempted to take him and give him to her Italian cousins will dodge Italians in future thank you”

“Nice quiet bar for the locals. You can grab a cold beer and be surrounded by sports and great conversation. Great drink specials daily and free pool on Tuesdays and Sunday's. I hear the bartenders are pretty great too😎.”

“I've just started going to this bar everybody there is very friendly and I always have a good time and relax that's the main reason I go there far is to relax and when I leave there I'm very relaxed”

“We visited Crevasse on April 14, 2023 for lunch. They have been on our ‘have to try’ list for quite some time, but they recently changed ownership. The facility itself is wonderfully rustic and housed in a very old building that has a long history of varied uses over the decades. The beautiful drive along River Road is the perfect pre-meal gift offered to all who make the wise choice to visit. We arrived early (as we often do) so did not encounter any ‘lunch rush’. The menu is not extensive, but there are adequate choices to please most anyone, including a “kids’ menu”. We were immediately greeted and seated. The waitstaff was attentive and friendly. They do a daily lunch special, and there were two options today. Each special includes a generous house salad as well as a dessert (with ice cream as an option) My wife and I each ordered one of the menu specials, with water as our beverage of choice. My wife ordered the crab cake and fried shrimp (3). The specials were served with fries. The crab cake and the shrimp were done very well with nice seasoning and full flavor. The crab patty had a good balance of crab meat and “stuffing”, and was delicious. I ordered the fish and shrimp plate. I was served two nice-sized pieces of fried fish as well as fried shrimp (3). The portions on the sides of fries are adequate, while not the over-sized type you often see when a restaurant is trying to ‘fill the plate’ and falls victim to the quantity over quality path. The fries were obviously hand cut, very freshly fried and delicious. My wife order the vanilla ice cream as her dessert. I passed on the peach cobbler, since I was more than satisfied with my meal and didn’t need the calories. Overall, we had a very positive experience and look forward to visiting again and inviting family and friends to join us.”

“My husband and I stopped on Wednesday early evening. We split the meat lovers pizza and house salad, which were delicious. We had the bread pudding to-go (wish we had gotten a double order). It is a local place with delicious food and great service. It was our first time eating there since they reopened (Hurricane Ida). It will definitely be a regular dinner spot.”

“Delicious! We arrived late for lunch at about 2:00. The hostess was friendly and welcoming. The owner even came out to greet us. I didn't ask if she was responsible for all of the great recipes, but I can see the love in her eyes and her passion for feeding people well.There was all kinds of food available to purchase and cook at home as well. Local fish, shrimp, frog legs, smoked rabbit, sausage, and more. I only wish I had more room in my belly!Kid-friendliness: Great for kids”

“This was an excellent stop after our tour. My husband and I shared the Cajun medley after sharing swamp fries. Both were very good. We also had the mint juleps. Hard to beat a KY mint julep. The weather was perfect so we were able to sit outside. Great stop!”

“Great little spot, homemade daiquiri's are seriously good. The beer is some of the coldest I've ever had. They have a screened in back porch that is really nice complete with flatscreens that always have the game on and sometimes there's live music..a hidden gem if I do say so myself..”

“Friendly staff. Candy will take care of you..local bar with deep Cajun flare. They're in the process of repairing the restaurant. Good home-cooked south Louisiana delights...”

“This place is great. The food portions were really good, the food was seasoned just right and the service was superb. I was working night shift and woke up later than expected so I called last minute to order a catered meal for 25 people and they pulled it off!! While ordering, I informed the lady that if it couldn’t be done, I would just wait until the next day being it was my fault I called so late but they went above and beyond to make it happen!! Hands down would order from here anytime!!”

“I've visited this spot every year for the last 7 years for the Christmas Eve bonfires. They serve food (chili, mac & cheese, chips, jambalaya) and have a live band with a cover for the night's festivities. It's always a comfortable temperature, depending on the weather outside and is a nice escape from the traffic and folks outside. Great spot to grab a cheap beer or mixed drink before heading out to the bonefires. Bathrooms aren't big, but they're clean! Definitely a dive bar - definitely a smoky bar.”

“First time customer. Solid lunch spot. Food was hot and good service. We got a grilled chicken sandwich and the Monday special (jambalaya with white beans). Only negative was the little side piece of sausage that comes with the jambalaya was just ok.”

“Some of the world's best daiquiris as proven by extensive government research on the topic. My current favorite is the notorious Blue Explosion which contains both Crown Royal and Diesel (190 proof). Order at the drive-through window and taste any of the flavors before you commit. Be sure to keep one hand firmly on the wheel while operating your automobile. It's just good drive 'n daiq' etiquette.”

“The service was good,but I had disappointing news, they will no longer carry the seafood,crab meat,or whatever U call it in not fair there should have been a servery done,I think it sucks they just might loose me, with my spinach wrap and seafood ?”

“I just want to put my application at chef John and company and I'm at the ownership John I just I just got the job and everyone in that building is absolutely wonderful I cannot express enough how courteous these people are and they are hiring”

“The food and service were awesome. Hope they start offering more of the Champs sides than they do now. Then they would be the only place to go to for fast delicious food”

“What a great little place. Most places today were closed because of the cold. 30degrees is not cold. Had the Cajun baked potato along with soup and salad. Great all around. If you're close head their way”
