ronaldduane must not know what good jambalaya tastes like. If you want it out of a box, don't go to Big Easy. Everything I've had there (and I've had most of it) is fantastic. Sometimes it's too spicy for me but the manager/owner always accomodates me. The crawfish boil nights are a blast, the crab bisque brougt me in 4 weeks in a row and the crab claws are wonderful. My husband orders the Jambalaya and the Crawfish Etoufee regularly. We became regulars after one visit and they know our names and the drinks and food we order most. teh service is great! No wonder it won Best of Atlanta, try it out!

Pros: food, service

I went here with some friends last week for dinner. I have visited New Orleans many times and love it. If you have ever been to New Orleans you know that it doesn't take a fancy place to have great food. It's in the culture. That is the vibe I got here. Neighborhood joint, no pretensions, fun atmosphere, great New Orleans food and drinks at reasonable prices. I would definetly reccomend it. They have everything from burgers for our kids to a steak & shrimp for us that rocked. They even have bolied crawfish on wednesdays that I hear is great.

Pros: Voodoo Shrimp!, $2 Beers, Real Jambalaya

Cons: Parking Is Tight

I went to the "Big Easy" on Collier last night with a couple of friends. The patio and service were ok, but the Jumbalaya was almost un-edible. Absolutely no flavor whatsoever. I paid close to $9 for a small plate of rice with a piece of link sausage on top. The menu described the jumbalaya to contain peppers, chicken, spices, etc... The plate that I was served contained nothing more than flavored white rice. My friend ordered gumbo and had to send it back in exchange for French fries. Overall, this had to be one of the worst meals that I have ever paid for. I highly recommend that you try another restaurant if you are looking for good Cajun food in Atlanta.

Pros: Location

Cons: Food

Great neighborhood place! really brings a piece of new orleans to town. food is very authentic and always consistent. best shrimp po-boy in town, bar none.

Pros: food, ambience, cost

Insider Tips

Parking

Parking in this part of town is abysmal with only a few spots allocated for the Big Easy. If the lot is full, troll for spots down the street at the intersection with Defoors Ferry and prepare for a walk. But be warned: some locations will boot or tow cars, so be on the lookout for posted signs.
