About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for live music
Home to the flavorsome platters of South Louisiana, Cajun Queen is a converted home restaurant, the architecture of which dates back to the vintage early 18th century. A nostalgic iteration of the 1980's New Orleans greets the visiting patrons, with purple, green and golden themed décor priming the interiors at Cajun Queen. The dining experience is equally comfortable, and customers can cine in the living room, expanded restroom, sunroom or wrought iron rooftop terrace. From crawfish to seafood, gumbo to steak—the servings at Cajun Queen are a concoction of culinary choices. Fried shrimp, etouffee, blackened chicken breast, bayou platter, ribeye steak and frenbch cut pork chop are often the most ladled platters which customers like to order. Wine servings prime the bar area to complement the authentic Cajun flavors.

    We had a great experience, Queen. My husband’s birthday dinner was perfect and we had several modifications to our orders. The waiter was very accommodating and understanding.

    The dish ordered wasn’t on the same level previously order. Not sure if they have a different chef but the normal spices were lacking.
