Where do I even start for Acadiana?! First off, I've only been during Restaurant Week (mad busy) and they still had AMAZING customer service (both at the bar and once seated at our table). They extended happy hour until 7 for RW, too! I'd recommend getting there for HH, some of the wine is only $4/glass, and all apps and specialty cocktails are 1/2 off (!). I had the Basil Belle cocktail & fried green tomatoes, and can't wait to go back for more!
Anyway, the food is really what I want to write about! The biscuits & warm butter (with a spicy jelly ontop!) they serve you to start with are DELICIOUS. The gumbo and the deviled egg trio are two really yummy appetizers (if you're into that kind of thing). Their entrees are heavy on the seafood. They have traditional (shrimp & grits) and some dishes with a southern twist (red snapper ontop of a cheddar sponge cake!). There were 3 of us, so we ordered each of the RW desserts - glad we did! they were AWESOME! Bread pudding, melt in your mouth Creme Brulee, and Chocolate cake with a scoop of banana ice cream (it wasn't too banana-y tasting, which was good for me!).
All in all, an EXCELLENT experience. We also found out they offer a 3-course dinner EVERY MONDAY NIGHT for $35, and they offer the WHOLE menu... can't wait to go back!
