If I could get more room in my belly, I'd be ordering a full version of the Red Beans Side that was clearly made with love and respect to taste and fresh ingredients, but I will order it again ASAP. The fried shrimp basket and slaw was delicious and generously portioned with me needing to put some aside for my evening snack. I need to come back and eat every single dish you all have up in there! Excellent food and service!

Loved the spicy Etouffee with steamed shrimp, red beans and rice, and Slaw for lunch and dinner orders. I will continue to order more dishes and hoping for Puddin to offer more side options for their other full meal offerings. I highly recommend this restaurant in the meantime as the best in the city overall.

I ordered a Red Beans 'n Rice - Single and it was 95% rice. Mostly rice with a very small amount of red beans for $17.50. They def shorted me. Go in person! When you order online they get really stingy with the portions.
