Just last year I was in New Orleans and craving good southern cooking. Finally the wait was over, and boy did I find the place that reminded me so much of there right in my own backyard! The Bayou is an amazing New Orleans southern style restaurant with even the cook New Orleans trained. The general manager, Rachel is incredible with her kind spirit and makes you feel like Family from the second you walk in and even though there are plenty of waitresses, she will still go above and beyond just to make sure you are happy with everything and gets you everything just the way you like it. After trying a catfish Po sandwich, brisket po sandwich, jambalaya, cornbread (which I have a picture of 1 slice!!), and of course for desserts if you’re gonna do Southern, you better get the beignets and bread pudding which comes with vanilla ice cream. I say 100/100 for this place! I’m so happy New Orleans is finally in my backyard. I have my go to place from here on out!

First time here and it did not disappoint! Tried the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and it was delicious. Also shared the hush puppies and cauliflower, amazing. Will def be going back!

The iced tea was definitely a highlight—perfectly brewed and refreshing. Unfortunately, the food didn’t quite live up to the expectations set by the pictures. The shrimp and grits, in particular, had an excessively sweet flavor that didn’t quite work for me. Overall, the food was average. I was hoping for more.

Darn I feel bad about saying this because I wanted to love my food! but I was not happy with it and kind off depressed about it. The server I had was a great guy and very pleasant and attentive....the food had seen better days. Maybe because I went on a Monday?....I ordered Hush puppies, bayou Mac and cheese and collard greens and a southern cheeseburger....the cheeseburger was great but everything else was not that great....the Mac was flavorful but not something I would order again as it was not rich, there was something off about it and it was not warm despite looking good, my collard greens were weird and tasted bitter and not fresh at all...I usually love collard greens! And the hush puppies were over cooked, they were for sure burnt but didn't completely ruin the flavors at least.

The Bayou is a southern restaurant (us).
