- DDebbieTampa / Central Florida West •1 review5.0Dined on Jun 22, 2025Perfect brunch with best possible waitress, just right level of live music, very good food (love the sweet potato biscuits and gumbos), good table. Only regret is that we tried to add another table of family to our reservation but the app showed none available yet when we arrived at 11:00 am there were plenty of open tables so more family could have come. I think they must only allow so many tables to be reserved and save a lot for walk-ins. That’s good news for walk-in customers!More infoPrejean's RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Cajun• Lafayette•4.7
