The Cajun Spot — Restaurant in California

The first time eating her with my husband, son, daughter in law and 2 granddaughters. We arrived just in time because a long line followed us. The young ladies at the registers were friendly a d helpful. The had to multi-task: taking orders, cleaning tables, delivering the orders to the tables and delivering pick up orders to the window. I ordered my bag with crab shrimp sausage and corn in a mild Trifecta sauce with rice. I like SPICY but mild had a spice to it and this bag was delicious. Yes it was pricey. Oh and don't forget to shake a d swirl your bag to get all the spices! We did have to wait a bit to have the table cleaned but there was a line so I did not have a problem and they got to it as soon as the line allowed. We waited for our and I can't imagine good cajun food not taking time to soak up seasoning. I read reviews and it seems this establishment must read them as well. I did not see a y sign of the negative comments posted in previous reviews. We were checked several times as well as the other patrons. I do not form opinions based on someone else's however the reviews prepared me to have my own gloves, bibs, etc. at our table. When our food was brought, they also brought gloves, plates,etc., all the items we needed. The Cajun Spot is definitely a great eating spot...

This place is dirty - You can tell when you walk in the place needs to be scrubbed down I fear what the kitchen was like.

Place was empty during lunch rush. Prices are insanity but the food is good. If you want a 100+ dollar lunch this is the place for you.

2.75 price for a soda. Staff seemed to care about looking at her phone then what was going on in the restaurant.

She could have been cleaning all the dust / slime from the napkin dispensers. She took one look at me and kept asking me if I knew what the prices were, which is funny because I make more in a week then she makes in month but I dress like a bum just for this outcome.

I know this place is going for that down home Cajun southern restaurant and the place serves food that makes a giant mess when you are eating it but this means to me that you should be even more on the job of cleaning the place.

Took a few days to think about if I would ever go back? I would if they retooled the place, one thing as a new customer the menu is confusing they don't have a like a simple to order lunch menu. I think they should target a 15-20 dollar price point and re design the place so they can generate more interest, and clean the entire thing and keep it clean.

They have buckets but the options were not that appealing and...

Ive been here 4-5 times. I'm a fan of the larger chains and been to a number of Cajun seafood by-the-pound places in the Bay area. Always order shrimp in the bag (so don't know about crab or crawfish)

Pros: Food is really good, always fresh. Deep fried items taste like they are from clean oil, in large or separate deep fryer (fries don't taste like fish, and definitely not losing temp by throwing them into friers too small).

Love the number of sides and they're all good. Garlic noodles are a must. Best sweet potato fries I think I've ever had. Consistently crispier than others. But love the other flavors of fries as well (had Cajun and lemon pepper). Love corn in the bag.

Fish and chips are great as well. Again, deep fried food is well done here and I think it is the fryer situation. Good stuff.

Cons: Service can be somewhat lacking (not rude just a bit slow/inattentive).

The sauce on the seafood is not quite as good as some other places I've been. Just not as complex/addicting.

I'm not one to critique environment, but if you care it's pretty boring inside.

No real complaints but could do their game a bit to get that 5/5. For the location I highly...
