Outstanding!!!!! Just swingin through for quick bite only to find a place I'd like to call my own! Sweet ladies, quick service and delicious food! I had the the catfish, corn on the cob, boudin balls, meat pie, dirty rice w/gravy and Cole slaw. Good food, good price and friendly service. Can't ask for more than that!
2 baby pieces of fish, 6 mini shrimps, baked beans and a roll. Pretty much $13.00. Not again .
Louisiana with it’s people are just plain beautiful, it inspires the rest of the country with food and culture. When it comes to good eating it never disappoints. Here at Mel’s you will definitely get first class service, friendly staff, clean restaurant, and some of the best fried chicken, cat fish and shrimp, Perfectly seasoned! The gumbo is delicious! I can keep going with all menu, I highly recommend. I will be back?
Place is next to a shell gas station. Tried the fried catfish and chicken dinner with a side of dirty rice also included a roll. And a meat pie. By looks alone it was unflattering. Taste on the other hand was pretty good. The star of the show had to be the catfish. The batter was crisp and the catfish was flaky and moist and flavorful. They give you what I assume is homemade tartar sauce which was ok and paired nicely with the catfish. Close second was the chicken,the plate came a thigh and a leg, again it was crispy and moist. It was seasoned just right not spicy and not bland. Third was the meat pie, it was like a ground beef taco but with a pastry tortilla?. It was good comfort food. This one needed a little bit of that Louisiana hot sauce to go with it. My least favorite was the dirty rice side, it was dry and lacked flavor and substance. Bread roll tasted like a run of the mill prepackaged roll so nothing to write about it.All in all this place has pretty good catfish and chicken. Definitely worth coming in for. The side that I got was a miss, so good luck.
Made fresh when you order. Great Cajun food and very clean place.
Delicious fresh fried shrimp, gumbo is very tasty, enjoyed the fried green tomatoes. Food is fresh & delicious!
Good fried chicken. Friendly service. Timely food for a quick meal. Relaxed atmosphere attached to the gas station
The food was fresh but not tasty,no seasoning at all.
Catfish is cooked to order and always fresh! You don’t get any hush puppies though they stop giving those away. But the red beans and rice taste really good! I’ve been coming over here for years and it’s consistently been delicious every time. The people that work in there are super friendly!
Nastiest catfish and Mac I’ve ever tasted. Shame they call themselves a Cajun restaurant.
