Jazmo'z - Bourbon St. Cafe

[Thomas Vu]

For future references, where would a good place to eat be given being in NOLA a few times?

[HangryHippo]

I spend a fair amount of time in NOLA and love Cajun/Creole food. Many of the places you listed that you didn't feel measured up come a lot closer than Jazmo's in my opinion. the location and décor are charming and wonderful but I have never been a big fan of their food.

Exactly this.

Thanks for all the replies, guess we'll keep searching for Cajun/Creole that we like...

Have you been to Bayou Grill and Bakery in Edmond? It's at Danforth and Bryant. I'm no expert but I have been to NOLA several times, and this place is pretty good. I think it's tough to find authentic NOLA style food here in Oklahoma but you might give them a try.

Have never heard of them (odd, since I keep up with pretty much all the new places, but could be because of the location), but will definitely check them out, thanks for the tip!

... haven't been to the Cajun buffet place due to us not liking catfish almandine...

You mean Cajun King? They're as good as any Cajun/Creole in town, IMO. But I don't think they have catfish amandine.

Those fried catfish/red beans and rice/beignets though...

But it is incredibly hard to go there and not reach for the door of Signature Grill...

2Lanez,
Sorry, check their menu and catfish almondine is the first item listed after beignets, file gumbo, soup and salad. I think their food is average at best. What other Cajun/Creole places have you visited? I have been to every place in town with the exception of Jazmo'z and they are all better than Cajun King. And that's not a criticism, but I think it's typical of buffets, lots of good stuff, but nothing outstanding. I think it's the old "Jack of all trades, master of none" syndrome.

CT, most of that other stuff is there so other folks don't eat up all your catfish. It's some decent catfish. I miss the one that was here in Norman. But I get by, because catfish at Libby's down in Goldsby is oh mah gawd so good. Totally different than Cajun King, but as good, indeed, even better in my mind.

[ctchandler]

Kevin,
I will have to try it. I've never been to Goldsby, I've taken the exit often, I used to have an aunt and uncle in Washington. How about the chicken fried steak at Libby's?

[kevinpate]

CT, I've heard Libby's CFS is good. But when I go Libby's, it's catfish for me.

Sort of like when I pop down to Kendall's in Noble. Yeah, they have a full menu of things I hear are good, but it is CFS for me when I am there.

Kevin,
I was at Kendall's a couple of weeks ago for cfs. I just noticed it on the menu at Libby's and was curious. Have you been to Steak and Catfish Barn? It is at Hefner and I-35 and originated at Waterloo and I-35. They have really good catfish.

I got way off topic here, sorry. I plan on going to Jazmo'z soon. As soon as my friend from London comes back to visit. Probably December or January.
