Good friends treated my husband and I to a meal at this fun little spot. The restaurant itself is in a professional building, but once inside, the atmosphere is definitey anything but business. The cocktail menu was interesting and I enjoyed the whiskey "martini". My husband thought his Cesar garnished with shrimp was just right.
Our fresh oysters were the perfect start and super fresh, which was quite a pleasant surprise for Edmonton. The wine list was small, but complimented the menu nicely. We all tried different dishes and while some were not authentic to the Louisiana theme of the menu, they were all quite good. The Blackened Snapper and Jackson Filet were standouts of the meal. My Seafood Jambalaya was not quite what you'd expect to get in the south. The seafood was fresh and cooked nicely, but the rice and seasoning were all wrong. This southern girl was left wishing she'd opted for one of the creative fish dishes instead. You really can't blame a Canadian restaurant for not being completely authentic, but I would suggest a quick glace at few jambalaya recipes or even an episode of Emeril for the chef. -

I had a friend bring me here for dinner on Friday, and really enjoyed the setting of the Cajun House. Beautiful and comfy decor made my meal enjoyable. The Service was the best part of it, our server had her timing down perfect. She wasn't pushy, and one thing that stood out to me was, she didn't ask us to refill our waters, instead let us enjoy our conversation.
I wasn't overly impressed with the wine menu. But they made me a great ceaser drink! Now the food, I enjoyed reading the menu. And they weren't kidding with the meal portions. I should have got a petite meal cause I was stuffed after! But the food was missing some flare to it, I though my meal was just okay.
But overall, my dinner was good. I didn't feel rushed even though the place was getting full. I would come back again for sure. -

The Cajun as a unique menu and it's filled with great food. I think there is something on the menu for everyone.
I actually just want to comment on their deep fried white chocolate cheesecake. WOW. It is amazing! It's drizzled in raspberry sauce and probably one of best desserts I have had in a long time!
Other than that the service is good.. pretty average. No complaints or compliments there. -

i went her last week... i was a lil reliant since from the outside the place looks very out of date and weird but trust me once u eat there u will love it, they have a big menu full of nice options, at frist when i saw the price of hte entrees i tough it was expensive (20 dollars for a regular pasta ans 12 for a petite size) but then i saw that the "petite" size its huge and its what other places call normal, we ordered two appetizers and a corn and crab chowder.. was so good, for entree i got the jambalaya pasta it was amazing fll of seafood, scallops, homemade ham and creole sausage really loaded!! the sauce was awesome it also came with a side or roasted fresh veggies, obviously i didnt even finished it (the petite size), too bad i was to full for dessert cz y wanted to have the bread pudding with rum,,,
next time ill get it as well as the jefferson steak that comes crusted with goat chesse and with a nice wine demi glace yummy
