Toronto Must-Try: New Orleans Seafood Jambalaya You Can't Miss! 🦞

After a friend's rave review, my boyfriend and I made a special Valentine's Day trip to try their seafood jambalaya. This cozy, family-run restaurant has such a warm vibe—staffed by sweet grandparents who make you feel right at home! 🍽️ What We Ordered 🥖 Warm Bread Basket A perfect start! Unlike many places that serve cold bread, theirs comes freshly heated with butter—so comforting! 🦞 Lobster & Shrimp Bisque My favorite! Rich, creamy, and packed with seafood flavor (no chunks, just pure velvety goodness) with a subtle spicy kick—total soul-warmer. 🦀 Crab Cake (Homemade) Jumbo lump crab meat in every bite! Crispy outside, though slightly overdone. Still delicious! 🦑 Calamari Standard fried squid—decent but not standout. ✨ STAR DISH: Jambalaya (for two) Massive portion (could feed 4!): 2 baby lobsters 🦞 Tender fish 🐟 Plump shrimp 🦐 Mussels (a bit dry from baking) Spicy sausage & chicken The rice? Flavor bomb—infused with seafood and a creole kick! 🍨 Desserts 🍮 Crème Caramel Huge portion! Silky smooth with fresh strawberries/berries—just sweet enough for Asian palates. 🥧 Pecan Pie + Ice Cream My boyfriend’s pick—buttery pecans paired with vanilla ice cream = perfection. 💡 Final Thoughts Total for 2: ~$200 (with cocktails) Perfect for: Dates/family gatherings Parking: Free lot outside (Etobicoke location) 📍 New Orleans Seafood & Steakhouse 267 Scarlett Rd, Toronto #TorontoEats #SeafoodLover #DateNightTO #SouthernFood #FoodieFind
