My Family and I recently were in Mississippi visiting some relatives. We had planned on going to New Orleans for a day trip and to search out some tasty local cuisine. After getting a late start we found ourselves ready for lunch before we hit«The Big Easy». I was initially excited to stumble upon this place because it had the look and feel of a real authentic down home Louisiana kitchen. The décor was great and the place appeared to be really clean. Unfortunately the food and service left a very bad taste in my mouth. After receiving what was probably one of the«coldest» welcome’s I have ever had from the lady working the counter we ordered the fried Alligator and an order of «swamp fries». Not sure what was going on with the Woman working the counter but I have never felt like we were not wanted in an establishment like she made us feel.(should of taken the clue and drove down the road a little farther). Finally we get our gator. It was so tough, flavorless and dry that we could hardly eat it. It literally tasted like it had been sitting in the bottom of the freezer for a year. The fries weren’t bad but again they were fries. Don’t waste your time here. We found much better fair and a real appreciativeness for patronizing a business just down the road.
