I Live in a family that has had its fair share of cajun food. I was born and raised in louisiana where we lived for nearly 20 years before recently moving to San Francisco. I still live in baton rouge while i go to LSU and my brother in New Orleans while he goes to UNO. After all of the bad reviews and the bad experiences we've had with cajun food in San Francisco we went to Elite cafe with low expectations. We were amazed at the high quality of food there. If you go there expecting to have authentic cajun food you will probably be disappointed as much of the food had a large california influence to it. We didnt eat much of the traditional cajun food like jambalaya and gumbo but i wouldnt suggest eating traditional cajun food outside of louisiana anyway because it will most likely be nowhere near as good as you would get in new orleans. The food that we had was spectacular and the Sazerac was excellent, as good as me or my father had ever had. I highly recommend this restaurant and if you go, definitely have a Sazerac and the Biscuits.
Pros: Excellent Food and Cocktails
Cons: Fairly Expensive
