Down Da Bayou Restaurant in Louisiana

"We didn't get to eat there because we were too early. However, the lady that was there took the time to talk to us and explain their menu specials. We really appreciated her taking the time to make us feel welcome."

"The owners and people working there were very nice and some that you could just sit down and carry on a great conversation with. We will be back cause the food was fantastic. Can’t wait for crawfish season to start cause they sell live and boiled. Great steaks also. Thanks for being there."

"Great have Burgers. Homemade cracklings and Pork Rinds. Speciality meats cut onsite and food prepared for sale such as. Twice Baked Potatoes. Stuff porkloins with boudain and cream cheeses. Stuff chicken thighs, breast, pork chops. (for you to take home and cook). Ribeyes, filet mignon cut to your choice. Seafood and so much more. Check its worth it!!!"

"This place is one of them places that you will just have to come and try it for yourself to see just how great the food really is the prices or high but the food is worth it."

"Delightful place. Friendly family owners. Excellent food. Plus a market attached with yet more wonderful things. All in all, a perfect Saturday evening experience."

"Our family enjoyed the food which was prepared excellently. Really nice employees, helpful all the time. A great place to eat with your friends/family and happy that those of us who live in the Fairview area, have a nice sit down restaurant we can enjoy."

"This is the spot for the best swamp food in all of Louisiana. Crawfish,shrimp,stuffed crab,catfish, all of the above. They sell seasonings fresh alligator, all types of different meats cheese and drinks. I will be back next trip. Thanks for feeding this ole Texas boy while up here hunting."

"We drove all the way from Fayetteville, Arkansas and were thrilled to find the best Cajun food at the best prices in the south at Down Da Bayou! This gem of a restaurant is a little out of the way for us, but we happened upon it during a trip back home and finding it was worth the journey! The food is fresh, hot, and out of this world delicious. The environment is charming, clean and inviting, and the owners are locals and amazing people. For lunch we had the combo with catfish and shrimp, and it was the best fried seafood I’ve had since I moved to the mountains five years ago. Portions are huge for the price and the coleslaw is the best I’ve ever eaten. They also make their own fresh chicken and pork cracklings and pork skins daily, and they’re as good as any you’ll find down south. There is a refrigerated section of the store where you can buy everything from stuffed portobello mushrooms, bacon wrapped and stuffed chicken and pork tenderloin, boudin and pepperjack eggrolls (and so much more!) to take and cook at home. We bought a little of everything, and every single thing was delicious! I absolutely can’t recommend this place highly enough!"
