Business Overview:
For nearly 75 years, this French/Cajun restaurant has been serving up BBQ, steaks, seafood and burgers, six days a week, for breakfast, lunch and dinner in a small but growing town in South Louisiana. Previously only a small cafe with great food and a reputation that drew crowds from far and near, this well-known icon was recently purchased by a man with the vision to expand in more ways than one. The physical appearance has changed dramatically with a new stucco exterior. Several rooms have been added to host large, semi-private parties and meetings, and there’s even an upstairs apartment with a window overlooking the bar area - a quiet escape for the owners. Antique pine covers the soaring ceilings and beautifully crafted sport’s bar where large flat-screen TVs and old fashioned jute boxes are located. More additions have been made to the kitchen and well organized storage areas, and there are plans underway for a drive-thru window and new oyster bar.
With almost no competition to speak of, this is without a doubt “the best place to eat in town.†The updated restaurant now seats around 175, and there’s even new seating out front. Limited parking is taken care of by a large leased parking lot directly across the street. New air conditioners and all new top-of-the-line kitchen equipment have been added, but the original cast iron cook stove is still used and proudly displayed.
