The food is awesome and authentic Cajun! I always go to Ponchatoula's when visiting my parents down south. The vibe in the restaurant was positive and the staff was super friendly.
Their po'boys are phenomenal, the service was friendly and prompt, and the atmosphere was casual but conducive to good times and good conversation.
Great food...fried green tomatoes,catfish,red bean and rice and boudin Balls.
