    I had heard alot of good reviews of this place.. so we stopped here this summer on a trip to Northern Ill..not so good...the fried food we had tasted like it was made in old grease..the fried oysters were probably the worst I have ever had..and it was way overpriced..don't bother

    the food is excellent and service is ok. it is usually very busy so service can be hard to get. all food is made fresh when you order it by the owner....RON. its the best cajun food north of louisiana. i highly recommend the fried crawfish and the pecan pie.

    I have been a loyal customer of Cajun Connection for more than a decade, I have never had a better restaurant experience anywhere. Nobody north of I-10 makes a better meal, no matter what you order. Get there early and plan to stay awhile, nothing is made up ahead of time so don't get in a hurry. Quality takes time.

    We visited a Friday night in July. I think they may have been busier than normal due to the band playing outside. We were disappointed by the service.

I had the blackberry bread pudding, and I honestly thought I had died and gone to heaven! Every time I go there it is like Ron and Amy are inviting my family ...

  • Great food and great atmosphere
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/07/07
    We were on a mini-vacation to Starved Rock and this was our first try at Cajun food. My kids loved it and so did we. Alligator is wonderful - very tender not at all what I expected alligator to taste like. The shrimp was excellent along with the creoles and ettouffe. The bread pudding was wonderful. Great food. Try the combo plates and share, ...
