    We love going the Cajun Pacific. It a drive for us but well worth it. Make sure you make a reservation. The place is tiny. Great flavores , fresh ingredients. Cheaper than a trip to New Oleans . Enjoy!

    Only seven tables, this place is tiny. The food is fantastic - great seasonal ingredients. Adequate, good-value wine list.

    This place never disappoints. Converted front of a typical San Francisco house, small, crowded and noisy, but good food, great maitre d', energetic kitchen.

    We have been coming here for many years and always enjoy the food and the intimate surroundings. The place is small, the staff is small but the flavors are big. Authentic Cajun food mixed with fresh California ingredients. The only downside to this spot is how small and tight it is, but I guess that is part of the charm. Great food in the outer Sunset, well worth the journey.

    Around the corner from us, so easy to visit. We've been there a number of times over many years. The kid's (now grown up) top restaurant. It is an intimate, cozy, relaxed destination that makes you wait for its consistently excellent fare. Cornbread muffins that demand seconds and could stand thirds, though unseemly gluttonous to ask. We started with unusually delicate mussels basking in flavor of its brilliant broth. When the main courses arrived we were met with plentiful slices of the most perfectly cooked duck draped across a bed of supple polenta anointed with sauce that complimented both... demanding a final finger-sweep to squeegee the last molecules off the plate. The crayfish pasta suffused in an elegant "fromage-y" cheese sauce with a piquancy that set off tender crayfish meat nestled in each bite. Plump succulent prawns pleasured another of us as we shared dishes tastes, and protected our own from depredation by our neighbors. All too soon, we were so full, we sat back in our chairs as if waiting for "one wafer thin mint" to blow us to smithereens. Yet, without shame, we descended upon the bread pudding which disappeared so quickly in a blizzard of spoons that I can't remember it was ever actually there. Go with close friends for whom long conversations can make you forget how long it takes to be served, and yet never forget how good the slow unfolding meal is. You may as well be in France, where the wait is due to the care in preparation and respect for your evening, not in turning tables. And, signs on the wall are clear in saying as much.. "good things take time"

    It's a very small and intimate venue. The decor is lovely and quaint and it feels very homey. It's a fun vibe yet slightly romantic and cozy. Very authentic and still unique!

    Gumbo was good. Make reservations as it gets packed and the restaurant is really small. A good southern dining experience.

    Third time I've been there....enjoyed the meals and restaurant each time. If you're thinking of trying the restaurant, I highly recommend the Portobello mushroom Wellington if it's on the menu that evening.
