Our Menu

"Great Cajun food and friendly staff! I had the catfish bayou and I see why it's a customer favorite. Fried catfish over rice with crawfish etouffee on top with a side of crawfish Mac and cheese. Yum!"

"This place is a hidden gem! The cajun food is so good! So good, we had to go back the next day to try another menu item. The staff are so friendly and go above and beyond. Also, love the outdoor seating!"

"Went for the first time and I'm mad I didn't go sooner. The owners are very welcoming and the food was so tasty and delicious. Thought I was back in New Orleans. Will definitely go back soon."

"LJz Event has been a pleasant experience. The fried fish and shrimp boil is absolutely amazing. The live music and entertainment has been a Mother’s Day to remember!"
