Great - all around. The atmosphere was fun and energetic. The live music was definitely a PLUS. The dj was great also, in between sets. The food was delicious, and came out fast. The drinks were good. The customer service was exceptional from the time we walked in, and it was super busy. The waitresses were very good and friendly. I went with my husband, however, it seems like it would be a good place for singles also. GOOD VIBES!! We'll definitely be back.

Thibodeaux's took me home as soon as I walked in the door. We were immediately greeted and told how long the wait would be for food. We were told an hr, but it was longer than that. The live band and drinks compensated for the wait. The drinks were really good and strong for the price. When our food did come out, everything was hot. The Lemon Pepper wings were juicy, seasoned perfectly, and crispy. The fish was fried to a perfect crisp. It was flakey but could've used some seasoning on the actual fish. I could taste it in the batter, though. Our server was really cool and took care of us. I also saw one of the servers bring out a tables food and they were on the dance floor. The server took the time to cover all the food with paper towels. I appreciated that small gesture. Whoever the really tall server is, she really looked out for table.

Let’s just say this: the food was so good we forgot to take photos. I have been trying to visit this place for months. I have bad timing about when to dine and this place is often packed. This time I was lucky. Thursday night and surprise! It’s karaoke night. The MC and the DJ have amazing voices and really know how to work the room. Service was amazing, attentive and good for the recommendation. I will be back. I need to try more of this amazing menu and soon.

I was invited for a dinner to celebrate a birthday. I was pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere. The live band (party crashers) was fantastic. The DJ thought he was funny...he kinda was. The waitresses we're nice. We had Princess and Mercedes(only briefly). Food was hot and delicious. I wanted to sample everything on my first visit, but I didn't. It was a nice size crowd and the food still came out quick. Oh and they serve REAL catfish! The drinks were ok ,but I believe I ordered the wrong thing(Cajun suicide) cause whatever my sisters were having had them in heaven lol. I believe they said it was premium something. Overall it was a great experience and I will definitely be back.
