One of my favorite restaurants! Their alligator sausage is a personal favorite of mine, and I always grab an extra order or two to go, after my meal. I have been going here for my birthday (on days they're open) for 7 or 8 years now, and aside from a Winter storm closing (this year), they never disappoint me!!! Ragin Cajun has one of the best "blackened catfish" dishes I have tasted, and although the restaurant was closed on my birthday this year, my craving for the blackened catfish and alligator sausage brought me here a few days later. I have made sure to bring family and friends to this restaurant when I can over the years, and continue to rave about this place. I will definitely be back soon!

The food and experience was SO GOOD!!!! I did the Igloo outside and had the best time with friends. It was a unique dining experience, BYOB, heaters in the Igloo, EXCELLENT food, and a packaged price (app, dinner, and dessert). We also ordered extras on top of what was included. It was a blast! I highly reccomend.

We have been coming here for years. Years - and it remains one of our all time favorites!!! It’s like relaxing in the kitchen of a great friend while they whip you up one of their specialties. We’ve never had a bad time here at Ragin Cajun!!!

I had an amazing experience at Rajun Cajun, and a huge part of that was thanks to Jessie Duerr and Patsy. From the moment we walked in, they made us feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of. Their service was friendly, attentive, and professional without ever feeling rushed. Jessie was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and made great recommendations, while Patsy went above and beyond to make sure everything came out perfectly and on time. You can tell they truly care about their guests and take pride in what they do. The food was fantastic, but the outstanding service from Jessie and Patsy is what really made the night memorable. If you’re heading to Rajun Cajun, you’re in great hands with them. We’ll definitely be back!

The gumbo was okay. I’ve had better tasting gumbo. The rice was too spicy to eat and it was not cooked all the way. I was disappointed as I had read reviews before ordering from this place. I won’t order again.
