I discovered this place after having seen a post by a relative on shrimp and grits in Houston. I decided that I wanted to find a local place that served the same meal. The Tributary Cafe appeared to be the best option for proximity to my home and currently open.The neighborhood was very busy and parking was a bit of a challenge. Once I found a parking space and went inside, I was impressed with the atmosphere and the cordiality of the staff. I placed my order for shrimp and grits to go and sat at the bar. The staff was cordial and attentive as I waited. Multiple staff members approached me to make sure I was comfortable.After a reasonable time, the order was cooked and packaged for take out. Once I got home and ate it I was delighted and sent a message thanking my cousin for her post about her meal in Houston that opened new opportunities for me in Fort Worth. I will visit Tributary Cafe again soon.
Absolutely terrific restaurant! I stumbled across this restaurant waiting for some friends. There brunch is so good. The swamp on a shingle was lick the bowl good. The crackling? Was equally good. I love michelas. I would definitely come back again for one of their's. The customer service is great. They make sure you are happy often and are quick to serve food and drinks. Everyone in the metroplex should eat here!
Awesomeness!!!! Great food and atmosphere!!
Being from out of town and love Cajun food, we had to try. Very friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. James was our waiter and able to answer all questions and even gave great recommendations! The food was outstanding and just what the soul needed. Thank you for the hospitality
We've been meaning to check this place out for years and finally made it happen today...It was amazing! I'm kicking myself for waiting so long! We had the fried green tomatoes and okra, gumbo, the best muffaletta ever, and the shrimp Victoria. Everything was fantastic! Can't wait to go back!
Great customer service and delicious food! My personal favorite was the fried green tomatoes with the sauce!
I love this place, food was so good. And the treat was amazing.
Great service along with fantastic food!!
Great food. The server/owner? smelled like cigarettes so that was a big turn off…other than that the atmosphere was perfect and the food was great! I recommend the boudin balls and the bread pudding!
Went towards closing on Sunday, but they welcomed me in and took the order. It was my first time and they gave great recommendations. Settled on the fried chicken with sides of Red Beans and Rice and a Cup of Gumbo. Gumbo was excellent with two large shrimp on it. Red beans were equally as good and flavorful. Now onto the fried chicken. This wasn’t some regular fried chicken. This had to be marinated, then coated with spices, then hand battered in a delicious batter that was fried perfectly crispy on the outside leaving the tender juicy meat inside perfect. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Cajun cuisine (I’m from SWLA) no before food photos because I ate it all ?
