Zydeco Louisiana Diner

I went here for the first time around 11 on a Tuesday. Somehow every 20+ customers at the establishment were men 😆 As a woman, it made me a bit uncomfortable, but the staff were welcoming and helped point me to specials they have today. I ended up getting the shrimp jambalaya. Food was decent, could be more spiced for my taste. My favorite was the cornbread. While I was eating two more women came in.

Tasty Louisiana / Cajun food served up cafeteria style! Retro diner vibe with old school decor. Ordered the catfish platter with fries and jambalaya. Everything was flavorful and the fish was fresh out of the fryer.

I love this place. Zydeco Louisiana diner is different. It’s located in downtown Houston but nothing in the immediate surrounding areas remind you of downtown. It’s in an unassuming building with plenty adjacent parking. It’s not your fancy downtown restaurant dining experience. It’s is good hometown, southern and Cajun cafeteria style food. Although the menu is limited, the food they serve is outstanding. If you’re ready to drop the suit and the tie feel free to go down the peace Street and enjoy your down-home meal downtown.

The food is always good. It defines Cajun food for me. The restaurant is buffet-style and the service is good for what it is; everyone is friendly and the dishes are clean. I've been eating there for about 35 years and it hasn't really changed in that time, which is totally fine. I like it just the way it is. It's my go-to for Cajun lunch.

Love this place! They have the best cajun seafood in town. The staffs are always so friendly! There always parking available. Great spot for lunch! The fried catfish is especially great! My boyfriend is a big fan! My ultimate favorite is definitely the stuffed shrimps! They are so flavorful and fresh. And the gumbo is to die for!
