Mexicajun at its finest. This marriage in food cuisine melts perfectly. The spices blend playing tribute to each flavor. That coupled with live music and great services.

Went to eat there and discovered they have moved into the old Reel cajun location at 347 and Jimmy Johnson, they are no longer on Jimmy Johnson next to golf course. New location is bigger and better, I loved it.

We come here all the time. I highly recommend Raven as your bartender. She is personable, gets the order correct (every single time), and is always smiling and happy. Not to mention, a really great person to talk to when you're at the bar. She also makes great drinks and always makes sure to come check on you. You will never have an empty drink with Raven Butler.
