What people say
Stanzie Cote
"Yes, I'm recommending a Cajun restaurant in Austin and no, I'm not crazy. Evangeline Cafe is owned & operated by a Lake Charles, Louisiana native who decided to bring great Cajun food to the city over 30 years ago and never looked back. And we're all forever grateful.
Evangeline is the *only* place I recommend in the entire city to people who want a traditional Cajun meal. It's that good. You'll find Abita beer, red beans & rice, and even alligator on the menu. Order the etoufeé if they've got it - they always sell out.
Be mindful of visiting Evangeline during Mardi Gras, as they host local zydeco bands and the tiny restaurant can quickly fill up. "
