Best WLM Reviews
I really enjoyed the food at this restaurant. The only issue, not really an issue, was our waitress, Holly. She had long dark red hair. She was different from the start, coming to our table after we had been sitting there for a while and asking if someone had been over here, we responded no, and she proceeded to ask what we wanted to drink. Now she was the only waitress we saw in the area our entire visit, and the restaurant had pretty much cleared out when we arrived. Anyway, she never backed up to greet us or even introduce herself. My dad ordered lemonade, and my mother and I wanted water. She said they only had bottle water. We asked if there was a charge, she responded that she didn’t know. Moving on, we ordered our food: onion rings, catfish platter, shrimp platter, and a blackened catfish plate with jambalaya. Everything thing was delicious, and seasoned to perfection. The shrimp were jumbo, plentiful and fried to perfection, and the Cajun fried potatoes left me wanting more. Fast forward to the bill, be paid with cash, including enough for her tip. She wasn’t the best, but still tipped her. She took the money, said NOTHING. We were still sitting there when she finally came back out and she still said nothing, no did you need change, nor thank you have a great day. At that point, I wish I had given her tip to the nice young lady who delivered the food and the young man who I believed would have cleared off the table. As we left, both of them thanked us for coming and wished up a nice evening, as well as the hostesses. Because I didn’t get her name at the beginning, I had to ask her name before leaving to include in this review. I would definitely love to visit again, but by no means would I want Holly to be my waitress. Located in the old Ryan’s building in Picayune, MS., the inside has been beautifully renovated, with a bar and plenty of seating, especially for large parties. A great place to watch some football on Sundays as well.
We loved our visit here! The atmosphere is lively, open, and warm. Service was great! Food was awesome!
Party of 4. We got the onion rings and they were delish! Then 2 of us got a boil with snow crab, shrimp, and dungeness crab. So so good! 1 got gumbo and a crab cake and loved it. The other person got the BBQ shrimp stuffed baked potato. She loved it. 3 of us added side salads and they were cold, crisp, and delicious.
Very pleased with our experience!
This was a good adventure for seafood! Enjoyed onion rings for an appetizer comes with swap sauce. Also got crab au gratin this came with a side, we selected crab boil potatoes. These are boil then battered and fried, these were great. Then my sidekick and I enjoyed the half and half, shrimp and catfish with a side of Mac and cheese. All of the food was seasoned perfectly. The cocktail sauce could used some work but the tartar sauce is very good. The staff did not seem very engaging and atmosphere was bland
We went in and had a 15-minute wait (it was actually less than 15 minutes before being seated). Samantha did a great job as our server. She was on point and checked on us regularly. My friend and I had the special yesterday, which was the boil pot and the shrimp and grits. Everything we had was absolutely delicious. We can definitely recommend both items. The boil pot is enough for 2 people easy. We will definitely be back! Thank You to Achafalaya for helping make my friends birthday special!
Great food. Good price. Service not so good. I had to get up 2x to ask for our waitress. We completely finished appitizers before our lunch order was taken. 25 minute lapse in between and it was not crowded at all.. Asked for the BBQ shrimp be out first but it came with rest of lunch. Had to ask couple times for small plates for appitizers ketchup cocktail sauce and tauter sauces.
Thankfully other waitresses stepped in to help when they saw what was happening.
Will definitely be back!
Service was excellent as well as the food. My server was spot on and didn't miss a beat. Food arrived in the right amount of time and was not only great but piping hot.
So, I will update a little over six weeks, and I am back. Tonight had the 16oz rib eye house salad and for appetizer the bayou bread. Everything was excellent and flavored perfectly. The salad was definitely fresh, and the bayou bread was a delightful surprise. Again, the server was spot on and attentive. Definitely a place to come to for a great meal.
The wife and myself are here for the first time today. And truely very impressed! The onion rings are cooked to perfection. She got the fried shrimp platter with fries and I got the half and half platter( fried shrimp and catfish) with the boiled then fried potatoes. <— these are so gooddd!!! The food ratio is more than a serving in our book! The cheesecake (from which I didn’t take a pic of) was so delicious! We will definitely make the drive from Lacombe back to here many more times to come! And the market has a good selection as well. We got some redfish filets.
My wife and I had not been here in quite a while and came in for lunch. The dining room was fairly busy and seemed about 50% occupied with no wait to be seated and we were placed at a table for two by the hallway to the restrooms. We asked to be moved to a better spot and it was like an inconvenience to them at first and they had a discussion about what to do with us. We were moved to another table for two around the corner which was better, but not a preferred location. Our server was very pleasant and efficient and had our drink and appetizer order going right away. The charbroiled oysters were okay, but not great - seemed like a bit undercooked. The fried onion rings arrived and they were very good. We shared the lunch special of fried catfish and shrimp basket with sweet potato fries. Shrimp were very good, the catfish strips were crispy but a little dry and the fries were undercooked, soggy with a tough center. Lunch was just okay and service was good once we got past the seating location drama. We overheard another couple being seated near us when we were leaving talking about not wanting to sit at the table by the restroom entrance hallway, so I guess it wasn't just us. I suppose they figure being by the restrooms is preferred by us older folks.
