Bayou Grille

Tried the shrimp po’boy at Bayou Grill and it was decent, but there’s definitely room for improvement. The shrimp were cooked well and had a good texture, but the overall sandwich felt like it was missing that bold Louisiana flavor you expect from a true po’boy. A little more seasoning, a better balance of sauce, and a slightly crispier bread could really elevate it. It wasn’t bad by any means just didn’t quite hit the mark of what a great shrimp po’boy should be.

First time going to this place. Service was order and pay at the front, take a seat and they bring the food to you. I ordered the fried catfish with fries and it came with toasted bread and a drink. I added 2 fried oysters also. My friend ordered the gumbo to eat there and some hot wings and 2 fried oysyers to go. My meal totaled $19.84. My catfish was hot out of the grease and seasoned really well and it was fried very nicely. The fries were good too. I didn't taste the gumbo but my friend said it was good. A couple of things about the restaurant that stood out to us were: the toilet seat in the bathroom needed to be replaced. It was very worn and well, I guess you'd say dirty. And the overall general condition of the inside of the restaurant was dirty. Dust in corners at the order windo

I like the owner he was a very nice guy. The atmosphere reminded me of Naw'lins, but the food didn't not even close. There was a repass there earlier they may have passed some of that food leftover. The food was void of flavor and was cooked wrong. I'm a chef by trade and I would be wrong for not telling the truth. I love New Orleans mostly for the cuisine it very unique and delicious. We did enjoy the World Series we were watching there. I didn't eat the Gumbo there at the place took it home ate the next day. I had to add chicken base to get any taste from it. Brother I wish you prosperity and success in the future. Maybe it was just a bad day it does happen I know from experience. Next time I'm in L.A. I'll give you another chance.

Every-time I return to LA, I make sure to have at least one meal here during my stay. I live in the SF Bay Area and it is very difficult to find Louisiana style home cooking there. This is comfort food at its best! Portions are plentiful and good value for the price. Since parking is kinda tight in the area, I get take out 90% of the time.

It’s all been great so far. The fried catfish is on point but I have also loved the crawfish tails, oysters and shrimp. This is where I go to get my fried seafood fix and the prices can’t be beat. I’ve been twice and I’ve included the pictures from both trips.
