I thought I would have to go to south central, or ladera heights to find real authentic ""soul"" food. I was dead wrong. This truly is the real deal. I still cannot believe an authentic cajun place is in a nice quaint town like hermosa beach. In a town like this I expect good pizza, good french food, or good american cuisine, but this may just be the best cajun restaurant in LA county. The first reviewer said that the red beans and rice were dry and not spicy. Well, my wife and I got the red beans and rice and we asked them if it was spicy, they said ""no but we can make it spicy"". Problem Solved!!! We got the seafood gumbo spicy and they didnt mess around at all. The seafood gumbo was full of flavor, very fresh ingredients, great seasoning, and tons of good lousiana spice. I mean it was spicy and delicios! This is the only place I have ever been to (I have been everywhere) where the gumbo actually tastes as good as my mothers! Simply Amazing food! I cant wait to go back and order something else. It is a CRIME that this restaurant wasnt featured in los angeles magazine ethnic food review.
Pros: Food, Serivce, Ambiance
