Review content:
First thing I do is I look at the menu online and am turned off by the café for using the BP oil spill to raise their prices. I am sure the shrimp is farm raised just as the catfish and crawfish the café uses in their meals. The restaurant is tucked away in a small strip center along Brodie lane with plenty of parking and a handful of tables on the sidewalk out front. The inside has its version of Louisiana flare with photos and drawings, mounted fish, beads, banners, and flags most in LSUs famous colors. I do have to question the need for 2 TVs in such a small café and why they are even there in the first place. You have 2 TVs and Cajun music competing against each other while you eat. The iced tea that is very good, so good that I would recommend larger glasses or dedicate wait staff to just topping of glasses during busy hours. I feel it is easy to put a price on anything, I may try a dish that is really good but if it costs 3-4 times what I think it is worth I will still enjoy the taste, but will question the value. \r
Some of their signature items like Crawfish Evangeline – sounds great on the menu, at the table it is just plain bland cream sauce plopped on a bowl of noodles. Why can they not stir the cream sauce and crawfish tails in with the noodles? We all know what happens to bare noodles when they sit under a heat lamp for even a minute or two.\r
The house salads are ok, nothing special, I have had better and worse. I do have to question the $8.99 price tag on a salad. The red beans and rice are always good but once again I have to question the $7.99 tag on a bowl of beans same with the gumbo, very good taste but $14.99 for a bowl. \r
If you order the catfish I recommend getting it fried, a number of times I ordered it grilled (nothing more than fried in a pan with no batter to the cooks in back) and it was delivered to me stringy and raw in the middle. It is obviously farm raised as you get that occasional skunky farmed raised taste when you bite into it.\r
Evangelines Café is what it is, to me it is just a another gimmick to serve Cajun style food at hefty prices. The Café is not much more than a cluttered Popeyes Chicken Diner except at Popeyes you get flavor, better portions and they have cleaner restrooms.\r
