6. The Jambalaya Shoppe
Reviewed By CusineTraveler
We must provide a disclaimer...we prepare Cajun and Creole jambalaya often for our extended family, neighbors and an entire high school faculty, so we have extensive experience with jambalaya of all kinds.We were recommended to the Jambalaya Shoppe and so we tried it. It will be the last time we will go there. The rice was soggy and there was not much aromatics (onions, garlic, etc.) or the Cajun trinity in the dish. The rice itself did not have much seasoning or flavor. The meats we did have in our jambalaya were not plentiful but somewhat scarce. The meats also were not very flavorful.The jambalaya was served warm, barely warmer than room temperature.If you cannot make good jambalaya yourself, or you cannot follow a Zatarain's or Louisiana Fish Fry jambalaya package instructions, then you might like this jambalaya. If possible, get your jambalaya somewhere else or make it yourself.

I had lunch there today, took the day's menu, corn seafood showder, chicken sausage jambalaya, butter beans. The chowder was rich in seafood, particularly crawfish. One of the best chowders I have eaten. The jambalaya was good, too. Pleasant helpful staff. And the price was right.

Stopped in early Friday (5 pm). No problem parking tho place fills up fast. When we left, standing room waiting to be seated. Had a soft shell crab poboy ($17.00)Iâd been wanting and husband had a fried shrimp poboy ($10.00)We split fries($2.00) which worked out great. The Abita Purple Haze beer ($3.50)was good and cold. Both poboys were good but we agreed the bread was not as desirable as a crunchy Leidenheimerâs would have been. Other folks said boiled crawfish were good, running at $7.50 a pound and regular boiled shrimp were $15.00 a pound. The fries we were very thin and had an almost sweet potato fry taste that I wasnât crazy about. Service was good. Iâd go back and try something boiled, but really wanted that soft shell crab poboy!

Drove over to Houma for dinner. The boudin balls were the best we have eaten on the trip!! Recommend. Nice atmosphere, music, narrative and jokes. The gumbo was packed with meat and dark roux, not to my taste. Potato salad was delicious. Catfish with crab atop was very good and the peanut butter pie was excellent and alone was worth the trip. Rating 3 stars for the service, which was atrocious. My husband had to get and chase someone down for crackers, for ketchup and to order dessert. We saw our waitress sitting down eating. Oh well.
