   It took 45 minutes to get one of our two appetizers (the second one never came). We had reservations but people seated after us got their food faster and our orders were simple, nothing complex. This was supposed to be a birthday celebration for my husband but was instead very disappointing.

   Tried this place on valentines and it was phenomenal. We aren’t seafood aficionados by any means, and I can’t speak to the authenticity, but I had the platter with oysters, shrimp, fries, catfish and stuffed crab, and it was leagues better than seafood I’ve had in beach towns. We tried the alligator and it was great (market price was low) and the hush puppies are fight worthy. They were out of key lime pie but we were arriving at dessert at around 9:45 pm on valentines so we’ll see that with a bit of empathy. Great service and great food. Highly recommend, even if it’s just to try and not to become a regular.

   We’ve been to Porche’s prior to this & it’s been wonderful. This time we had a new waiter & it was also very busy. We’ve always loved it so we’ll be back.

   Was not true Cajun food by no means. My oysters on my po’boy were old and not fresh. It was like chewing on rubber! Not to mention that five oysters on 7 inches of bread is not a good deal at all. The waiter provided good service and the key lime pie was also good, and thus, the only reason I didn’t give the entire review one star. I doubt that we will be going back now after reading other reviews have that said pretty much the same thing that I have. I just wish that I had read them before going to the establishment. Certainly not what we expected from the flash they have on their website.☹️

   We lived 10-years in Lake Charles and this place reminded us those small family run restaurants that we loved in SWLA and working east into Abbeville. We enjoyed our meal and will be back.
