The manager, Eden, and our waitress, Emily, were awesome! The food was amazing. Would definitely recommend 10/10. Will be going back before we end our trip!

The food was delicious! Our server Tee was outstanding, we didn't need for anything! Great service and good tasting food.

The food was amazing. I had the atchafalaya and my wife had the shrimp half and half. Definitely would recommend both. We liked it, and our waitress Eden, so much that we made a point of coming back before heading home.

Food was great, they need to get more high chairs to accommodate parents with babies we have to find them ourselves the servers didn’t think they had any more they just didn’t go look that’s pretty much the only thing I could say about the servers, The one thing I don’t like about what this restaurant does and others around town do is how if you have 8 or more people you automatically get charged I thin’ it was like 20 or 25%, ( the service was good ) but in general I feel like it should be up to the person paying because the service could be terrible but they would still get a tip the whole point in tips is to thank them for doing a good job it should be a have to thing and I was a waitress before but when I worked I did a good job because I wanted to make my customers happy and if I did my job well a good tip was my reward, it gave me something to work hard for and feel proud about but I guess now we are forced to pay a fee even if the service is bad, having a rule like this at restaurants makes me not want to go back to them, I have been in the situation where service was bad and still have to pay (not at this restaurant) but I remember talking to a manager about it and told them that I wasn’t paying it and they still ran my debit card for the tip money (again not this restaurant) so I really wish this restaurant would do away with that rule and make their servers work for the tips things should be rewarded unless worked for, if we keep rewarding people for doing nothing we will always get nothing out of them , just my opinion on the matter. Also so this has nothing to do with the restaurant because they can’t help it but make sure to lock your car doors while your eating because when we ate there a man was going from car to car checking doors and the staff didn’t say or do anything but , Rosie Joes is actually a great place to eat, the food , the service and the staff are great !!!!! definitely go try the food !!!!!

Came the first weekend of June for the 1st timeOur waitress was AWESOME! I give her 10/10 stars.I ordered the catfish bites: they were really hard to the taste--dried up like eating hard cracklin.The red beans and rice with sausage also wasn't that good, either.The boiled crawfish were BEAUTIFUL and large; however, this eatery doesn't boil their crawfish in seasoned water ?. They place the seasoning on the crawfish afterwards.I don't foresee returning at all.The cup of seafood gumbo was sub-par and more like a stew.1-and-done for me!

This place was delicious and delightful. The staff were getting slammed the Tuesday night we came through, but everyone was friendly and the food still came out quickly. They could barely keep up with all the boiled crawfish platters they were selling the evening we were there. Had never been here before and it was worth the stop. Much better than the Lafayette Parrain's, IMO.

We had the little John, 3 pounds crawfish and 1/2 pound shrimp tiny sausage link, one potato, one corn.l, also ordered a pistolette.

Rosie Jo’s is absolutely amazing! our waitress was so sweet and never kept us waiting. I had the Crawfish Mac & Cheese and it was delicious! I also had some boiled shrimp and both dishes had the right amount of seasoning and was well cooked. I am impressed and will be coming here again :)

Don’t come if you’re expecting it to be the ritz Carlton. But if you’re wanting good seafood in a relaxed atmosphere, come in & roll up your sleeves. Prices were higher than we normally pay to eat out but we understand market pricing and we don’t eat like this every week so it’s fine. We ordered the big Jim to share and it was *almost* more than we could eat, but we powered through. Just the right amount of spice. We are stuffed and happy. Fast friendly service.

Coming from out of town, this place had the best crawfish and shrimp by far. The service we received was what made our whole experience even better. Our server, Josh B., gave us top notch service which is hard to find these days. Y’all check this place out and give my man Josh a raise!
