This is a hardcore authentic South Louisiana hole in the wall Creole seafood restaurant. The menu is whatever Pam tells you they have when you get there. Don't worry there are plenty of choices and there's always gumbo and etouffee. The flavors deep, dark, a little funky. Service is minimal - you order at the counter, she brings you the food, then you go back to the counter and get your silverware and napkins. There are at least two TVs on different channels and turned to max volume. I you're the only one in the dining room you can watch whatever you want. The place is dirty - the kitchen is in the middle of the first room and the pots are black with rolling fire. Like I said, authentic. The furniture is scratched and old and cheap. This restaurant and Pam herself are right out of Central Casting for a South Louisiana bayou. There may not be another place like this in Houston and for that reason alone it's worth going.
Absolutely delicious. We were greeted warmly as we entered for lunch. We got shrimp & grits and stuffed bell pepper with greens and black eyed pea sides. I have no complaints whatsoever. Highly recommended.
If you're looking for the most flavorful food... coming here is a must. You will get a greeting like no other as soon as you walk in the door. Pam will make you feel at home and explain all of her dishes. The best home cooked meal around. This is 10 times better than any restaurant food. The stuffed bell pepper is loaded with flavor. The smothered pork chops are perfect. You have to try the collard greens and okra.
It was worth the 35 mile drive for us.
They gave us a sample of the gumbo, it was wonderful. I ordered some to go after my meal.
We will definitely be back.
