I visited Tia Juanita's Fish Camp on a night with live music. The music was very good, two guitar players who could both sing. They were playing a mix of modern and classic rock, country, and pop.
The interior is made to feel like you are in a Louisiana Dock house, or at least the interior 'patio' (enclosed) is anyway. I had the Seafood Gumbo, a large bowl, and it was real gumbo. It was also pretty good gumbo, not exactly authentic or like granny's, but good for the area and for the price.
For desert I had their Bread Pudding. Very rich, lots of flavor, and unconventional. It is a 5" tall loaf that could satisfy 2 dinners. The sauce is buttery and creamy, not too sweet. It was actually the highlight of my dining experience!
The dining accommodations in the interior 'patio' are older and not the most comfortable, but I was not looking for a 'fancy' place so that was OK. There is no need to dress up to enjoy the music or the food, just make sure you have on a shirt and shoes :)
One of my top locations for tasty Seafood. Super delicious. Definitely worth a return visit. It has a cool atmosphere.
Crawfish were great!! The crab bowl appetizer was hands down one of my favorite dishes! I will definitely be back to get that dish alone. The margaritas were strong and all the food and drinks came out in a timely manner.
If you are prepared for the crowd, the noise, and an overall party atmosphere you HAVE to eat here! Ranks with the best food places in the country! I would go back a million times if I could. What a wonderful food memory!
Seafood enchilada is fantastic. In fact everything I've had there is wonderful. Bread pudding for dessert is a must. Only complaint... my Long Island Iced Tea seemed light on the alcohol.
