A Perfect End To The Night 1/27/2006

This was my fist time to Mardi Gras and I absolutely loved it! The Big Easy Platter Appitizer was the best. For dinner we had the Ribs and Filet Minon both equally amazing! For drinks we orderd the Purple Rain and Blue Hawaian. All of these were very good with the Purple Rain the best. I did not care for the Mashed Potatoes, they tasted similar to that of boxed mashed potatoes but that is my only complaint! We went late on a Friday and were seated right away. Make reservations if going earlier in the night. Pros: Friendly Wait Staff, Great Decor, Great Food more

I HAD A LOT OF FUN 10/20/2005

I was there last thursday with my friends to celebrate my birthday. All the servers and the manager brought me a yumy banana foster dessert and sang the happy birthday for me. My friends enjoyed a lot the life jazz band that was performing that night. The food, specially the coconut shrimp I had were just delicious. Servers and managers are great and friendly. We all got out of there very happy and with some bids on our necks. Pros: food portions are big, nice neighborhood, two floors Cons: parking on the street, second floor gets hot more

Cajun experience - look elsewhere 6/1/2005

My girlfriend and I went here recently to try some authentic cajun food. At most, I would consider the food average. The prices weren't that reasonable, and to make matters worse, the wait staff and manager were not courteous. Recommendation - Look elsewhere for an authentic cajun experience. more

If you like MSG this is the place for you 3/16/2005

This is one of the worst Cajun cooking I have ever tasted. They load up the food with MSG to improve the taste. You will find yourself very thirsty an hour after you eat. Atmosphere is nice. more

Hot Hot Hot... 6/26/2003

And I'm talking about the tempurature inside the restaurant. The AC wasn't working very well but at least we were seated near a window and could open it. The food was excellent, Al.E. Gator Pops are the best, and I suggest the jalepeno chedder mashed potatoes as a side mmm mmm. The place itself is fun and great to take a date (if they like spicey food). There's a bar downstairs and seating upstairs, a spot by the front windows at night is nice :) Dinner comes with a bread basket with corn muffins (theres chocolate on the bottom yummy). Pros: Good Food, fast seating Cons: service a little slow, pricey more

Feeling Like New Orleans! 5/17/2003

What a nice place! From the minute you walked in. The hostess was pleasant, she took us to our table immediately. The waiter, Maurico was courteous and pleasant. He made us feel right at home with his friendly attitude. The food was excellent, the jolly ranchers drinks terrific!! The music was jamming. Since it was my friends birthday, the staff came over and sang Happy birthday for her and brought her a piece of scrumptious chocolate cake. Thanks Mardi Gras, we will be back! more

Just enjoy it for what it is 10/14/2002

I just went for brunch this Sunday (my first time going.) Definitely get the Eggs Mardi Gras if you can. I've been to this place at all other times and the food has been consistently good. Not having been to NOLA, I can't speak about its authenticity, but if someone is really concerned about that I think a roundtrip flight is under $300.00. If not, just enjoy yourself here. more

Slap Your Mama Silly! 9/17/2002

I love their ""Slap Your Mama Silly Ribs"". It's delicious! And their mashed potato is great too, as is their Creole Shrimp. I don't care for the interiors - kind of feel like you're eating in an attic, but the ribs make up for it. The waiters are very friendly...almost too friendly, but better than those snobby ones! more

mardi gras is no new orleans! 8/28/2002

Ok, I've been to many cajun restaurants in my day and this one certainly does NOT take the cake! Although the wait staff was friendly, the atmosphere was not. The lighting is dim to completely dark and there is nothing there that reminds me of Mardi Gras. Aside from the drinks, the food is tasteless and boring considering the prices. I've had a better chicken sandwhich at Burger King! more
