Linda took me to this exciting new little place in downtown right near her office. We had dinner on Friday night. The Bayou has a wonderful New Orleans feel and a menu to back it up. The service was good but you can tell they are still working through the opening weeks with a new staff. The menu is extensive with the usual selection of seafood items : appetizers- crawfish tacos, oysters on the 1/2 shell, seafood and artichoke dip, stuffed portobello, shrimp and andouille nachos. The sandwich selection was a total Po-boy bonanza - great choices and even a Muffaletta and then the entree selection looked wonderful with etouffees and jambalaya's. We can't wait to try more of the menu since what we had was so darn tasty. Make sure you sit downstairs to get the full feeling of the place - upstairs did not have the warmth and atmosphere!
What we ate
Blue point oysters - with bloody mary sauce and Champagne mignonette
- yum but the sauces need a little work to deliver on the expectation
Blackened Crawfish tacos - yum - the two of these were tasty - add one more for a meal
Bourbon St Po-boy - a dressed po-boy with shrimp and crawfish (could of used a little more seafood) with remoulade sauce
Sweet Potato Fries - amazing fresh cut and lightly dusted with seasoned flour - these are great!
Check it out we can't wait to go back!
