Description:
- Evangeline's Cafe gets its name from a Longfellow poem and you're forgiven if you're surprised. True, the stuffed animals and neon beer signs don't say Longfellow but diners don't come here expecting a romantic setting for two either. It's for the food and the live music. The kitchen at Evangeline's holds its own in the cajun and creole department, the signature dishes being the gumbo and the crawfish, both with ample meat and cheese. The cafe features new acts every night and the dancing is sure to help you burn some calories. Ignore the no frills impression that you get when you first walk into Evangeline's Cafe and you're guaranteed to have a good time.

The music was very good. The food was okay. The oyster po boy did not have flavor. The red beans and rice, delicious. The fish taco, no flavor. The deserts, excellent.

Bland, boring food! NO FLAVOR!

I don't understand why this place is getting such good reviews. The food is extremely bland. These guys really need to invest in some seasonings. Some garlic powder, onion salt....just...
