My dog was like, "Why did I only get rice and gravy this time?"

that was wonderful. thank you
Delicious food and friendly service. We love Matt and Memere's!
Very good authentic Cajun food! Dat praline is so good! Chris will take good care of you!
My wife decided on the Jambalaya from Matt & Memere's, and was kind enough to share it with me, as her serving made for a generous lunch. When I visit a new (to me) spot with New Orleans food, I have a hard time predicting whether the it will be pleasantly spicy and flavorful, or just hot for the sake of being hot. Fortunately, Matt & Memere's falls in the first group - all the ingredients working together, each with their own distinct flavors (including the rice), and nothing that is overtly painful to put in your mouth.
Not being an expert in Cajun cuisine, I would be happy to use this spot as my baseline for judging any future meals. Realistically, I'd guess that I'll be returning here most often, because, if it ain't broke.... why go anywhere else?
My only regret - not trying the beignets on my first visit. Looking forward to fixing that situation in the near future.
Once a lost Cajun, I now am found. The fried oyster po'boy, with fat oysters and nice crusty French bread, was perfectly dressed. I also ordered red beans and rice, intending to bring them home to eat with dinner. They didn't survive lunch. Super friendly service, and their array of hot sauces to complement your meal was also great. I'll be back soon.
