We got the Pork Belly, Fried Oysters, Oxtails, Hanger Steak, and Beignets. Every single thing was delicious. We tend to stick to franchises like Carrabba's, Longhorn, Bravo, etc, because indie restaurants are so hit-or-miss, but The Bayou is an absolute gem.

Best Mac and Cheese I ever had. Ever.... and that is saying something. We had small plates and the chicken and spare ribs went very well with the Mac and Cheese! They had a small but excellent craft beer selection. We also had the frog legs, which were well prepared and fun for the novelty, but not as tasty as the rest of the meal. Will certainly eat there again.

Love the food, the environment, the way everyone feels at home including myself. May I suggest the catfish, with creole rice, and collard greens. VERY DELICIOUS! Definitely going back again.
