Customer Reviews
Starting off this place is beautiful. Plenty of seating the food and service was great. 1st I had the Cajun Duck Patties 10/10. Very delicious it was cooked perfectly. My favorite appetizer this year. 2nd I had the Catfish Poboy 8/10. The bread was nice and soft. The catfish was ok could of been a more crispy. The Aioli was bland but paired with Pico it amazing. Last but not least the Gumbo 9/10. Need a little more rice. The rue was spectacular it needs to just a little bit more loose but darn near perfect. The shrimp and sausage was cooked to well, seasoned to perfection. Shout out to the cooks/Chefs in the kitchen. Shout out to the Manager Twaina and the waitresses. Only negative was the place is to nice and the food is too good to be served in baskets. Food Game 9/10. Price Game 8.5/10.
I went there just to taste. The fries were very flavorable! But the chicken didnt taste fresh. For a 8 piece drummets and fry was 19.34 ish. The wait wasn't more that 15 min. Very nice atmosphere! Great customer service!
Great food and service! We tried the blackened catfish, shrimp and grits, and southern fried frog legs for an appetizer. Everything was perfectly seasoned and prepared. Our server told us they do live music on the first and third Friday of every month and we'd love to come back again for that.
I went on a random Wednesday evening at 5pm. The wait staff was super helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. I had the blackened grouper and jambalaya. Tons of shrimp included which was awesome! I really enjoyed the meal.
Kouzen food was delicious. We had the chicken po boy the grits flight with shrimp lamb chop and catfish and then tried the duck patties. The food speaks for itself. Hands down the best lamb chop ive ever had. The only down fall was it took over and hour for our food and it wasn't busy and our waitress changed 3 times. Also the food wasn't piping hot from the stove which was strange since it took a long time. It was more room temperature but it still tasted very good. I think they just have some operational errors to work out and once that gets going they should be fine. I will try again after a while.
