Henry Batiste has been in the food business since 1985, when he opened his first restaurant in New Orleans.

Yum! Our food arrived piping hot. Nice, meaty, catfish filets that were so good, no need for sauce or anything else. My husband got the catfish topped with etoufee and loved it. We also got the fried okra, which was perfect and enough for 2 people. But the gumbo was my favorite. I added the shrimp. It was warm and tasty with just the right amount of spice. A wonderful dinner after a long day in the car.

The 1 Pound- Boiled Crawfish was so good! I'm from New Orleans and have been homesick for authentic crawfish boils and this hit the spot! Nice and spicy just the way it should be, and the corn, potatoes and sausage were perfect too. I will absolutely order this anytime I'm craving crawfish!

Vivian's Rice Gumbo (Bowl) only had one small piece of chicken and was very similar in flavor to the progresso canned gumbo with some extra spice, also the rice is already mixed in. overall it was more like a spicy sauced rice with sausage than a Cajun gumbo.
Pecan Pie was great.

Fried Catfish Dinner not much flavor like it has no seasoning. Not much quantity for the price<<taggedItemId=29947420716>>.
Fried Alligato<</taggedItemId>>r is very bland and the quantity again is not much for the price.
I'm a first time customer and honestly was not impressed. I would not purchase from this store again.

Food was great but the portion size for the fried alligator was criminally small for the price. They were all little pebble nuggets that would barely get a 6 year old full. HOWEVER!! the gumbo was amazing and i will order it again. Overall great food all around but portions need to be increased considerably for the price.
